I live in San Francisco, CA and the average home prices are about $725,000 for a 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom home with about 1,500 square feet.

What is the average price home in your city going for?

Plummeting. With the exception of Las Vegas, the West Coast of FL has the home prices plummetting faster than any other city according to a recent study by the Wall Street Times (about 4 months ago). According to the San Fran. Sentinel the average home price where you are is $497,110 as of Oct 2007. Where I am it is about $312,000. But I really think that is skewed by how large the "tampa bay area" is. They are including, St Pete, Clearwater, etc...

you can't find a decent home for $500k in SF, you might be able to buy a studio or one bedroom condo.

Not sure on the average, but our4bed 3bath 2800sqft home on 1 acre is approx 160-180K........I'm sure if would be worth over 1mil in SF.

I've spent most of my life golfing - the rest I've just wasted.

Holy crap. We have a 5 Bedroom 4 bath home and a little less land we paid just over 800k for it. And we are not anywhere near SF.

My folks just put their 2900 sf 4/3/2 on the market for $205,000

It's pretty well the median in their neighborhood.

The same house in a good part of Dallas would run ~$350k

My house is apartment sized. I bought it when I was single, and then got married, and now have a kiddo (it's REALLY cramped) I paid $40k for it 8 years ago, on 1/3 of an acre, and I'm right in the middle of town (1/2 mile from the university, 1/2 mile from the interstate, it's a great location)

This year has been tough. We started really late because of the long winter and the weekends this summer have not been great. The weekend of the 4th was nice but now it is getting hot and humid.

Golfing in the suburbs of Chicago is good but I wouldn't call it cheap. $50-$80 for a decent course. $90-$150 will get you good courses. I don't know what it's like golfing in Quincy though. Usually towns on the river have decent cheap courses.

Played my 1st round of the year in March. Down here it's $22 + cart for weekends on the best public around. The big difference is we have to drive a couple hours to get anywhere really swanky.

Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater market is in the toilet. I was an account exec for FedEx in that area and over half the mortgage companies closed their doors along with any other industries that were affected such as building supplies, landscaping, architecture firms etc etc which in turn affects everyone even up to shipping.

Here in Dallas it's pretty reasonable, you can get a small 1,500 sq foot newish house (built after 2000) for about 175,000 all day long.

Arlington.

My folks are in southwest, I'm in central (near UTA)

The one compromise I made, and I regret, is it doesn't have a garage. Mine is a 50's frame house. Very simple structure. It had been a rental for 20 years, so it was pretty buggered up ("A handy man's delight!"). I was young, single, and needed a place to crash, and it was cheaper than the 1 bedroom apartment I had before.

    • Day 12: did the yardstick putting drill for a bit while watching tv. 
    • Hole 6, 185 uphill par 3, wind out of the right. I hit a 7 iron to 5-FT left of the pin. The ball landed about 185.5 yards. I drained the putt for a birdie, and most likely a skin.  2nd place is more of a best swing made. 110 yard wedge shot, where I did what I wanted in the back swing and downswing.  I hit a 75% partial wedge 95%. It was flushed, flighted, and beautiful to watch fly over the green. 🤣. I will need to redial in the wedges sometime. Since I am making an effort to make my former 3/4 swing length my full swing length. 
    • Is that like "the longest yardstick you can find"? I don't have Airtags but I'd call all of them Airtags too.!
    • Yea, that makes sense.  I remember an Open tournament when they brought out the wind meter one day because balls were being blown around the green. I think it was 45+ sustained, which probably means 60 mph gusts.  I think for the most part, it isn't something that needs to be taken into account.  Also, a golf ball is designed to optimally move through the air. It has better aerodynamics than a sphere.  Thanks for your expertise on this. That makes sense. I know about how wind diminishes the lower in height you go. I didn't know it went near zero at the ground. I deal more with tall structures (utility poles), and we have to take into account height and impacts of wind on the pole. A bit of experience, but wasn't sure how close to zero, non-impactful it was on the golf ball on the ground. 
    • Day 2 (7 Aug 25) - More work on tempo with mid-irons, moved to wedges for the balance of the drill.
