Next update: our Saturday (6/21) round is booked at Reserve Run (Poland, OH). It’s about 50 minutes from Cranberry Highlands.

Tee times are 12:40, 12:48, 12:56, and 1:04. 

I’ll send some thoughts on hotel locations, etc. later, but we have our golf booked!!!

OK guys.

@iacas put me on again and I would definitely like to attend one or both days. Life is a balancing act as you all know, and obligations must be respected.

that being said I am almost certain I will be able to make Saturday post-call, and if I can have the whole weekend rearranged (I suffer for you people) I could possibly play both days! 

will confirm further and let you know, but pencil (not pen) me in for Sat 21

Have I actually confirmed yet?  If not, I'm in, both days.  I've been in contact with @billchao, who is doing the research for hotels.

Y'all will enjoy the course. It has a good mix of scenery, tougher holes, mildly jaw-dropping holes, and so on.

I'm interested in joining Sunday at Cranberry Highlands, unfortunately most likely unable to attend the Saturday round at the moment. Will update if anything changes.

I am interested on playing Sunday. Saturday, I have a tee time at Old Stonewall so that won't work.

Lots of people messaging about one or both days. As @iacas said, we will give preference to people who can play both, but as long as we stay under 16 we can accommodate both. 
 

I will need to pay in advance, so I’ll send a message this weekend with details on that and some sort of tracker for who is playing when. 
 

Can’t wait!

I need to drop out of the event. Too many things going on in June. Next year. Everyone have a great time.

As noted above, we're going to take two-day participants over one-day participants, and fill in as needed. Consider coming Saturday too to lock up a spot. It's not like we won't have people driving out (Mike, Richard, me, etc.) from Erie.

I am in for both days, if there is still room.

I would be arriving in the area early Friday afternoon and am planning on playing Olde Stonewall. Let me know if you would like to play Friday afternoon.

Go ahead and remove me from the list for now, seems like there's enough interest from others I don't want to hold up a spot from someone who is ready to commit now.

If things work out job wise in the next month and there's still space I'll join back in but we'll see.

I've created a Google Sheet to track attendees:

Please add your name and username and the days that you'll be there.

If you want to add a "maybe" for one of the days, that's fine, but we'll need a final number and payment by 5/30 so we'll need to convert them to yes's or no's by then.

You are going to have to change the settings to allow editing. I think anyone but you just have viewing rights.

Here is where we're at so far.  (3) more spots left for Saturday, and (2) Sunday.  Again, if there are more folks interested in both days, we'll give preference to them.

@dennyjonesand I are planning to stay in the Poland, OH area Friday night.  If any want to get together for dinner and/or drinks let us know.

We are not sure exactly where we will stay or what time we will get there but if we can hook up with any of you it would be fun.

    • Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
