Munis or all public courses?

Because there are a ton of fantastic courses open to the public in the Austin area. Austin is a golf mecca. As far as munis, in addition to the ones you mentioned: Morris-Williams Lions Hancock http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/parks/golf.htm Get out and play Lions before the lease with the University of Texas expires and the University retakes the land, eliminates the golf course, and develops the land. http://www.statesman.com/news/conten.../0706muny.html And keep an eye on Longhorns Charlie Holland and Bobby Hudson this year. Hudson just cracked the top 25 on the R&A; Amateurs Ranking (#22).

Depending on how much you want to spend and your location there are several nice courses within 15 min of Austin. Plum Creek in Kyle is great. Also Blackhawk in Pflugerville is nice as well.

Driver: Sumo 5000
Fairway Woods:RPM #3
Irons: Pro-Combo Tour 3-P
Wedge: SV Tour 56° VR 52°
Putter: Studio Select Newport 2Ball: Tour i/ix or Pro-V1x

Yah, I'm psyched every day to get out and play. I get free rounds at Clay/Kizer but I've played out there 30+ times. I practice my wedge game and putting daily and I'm shooting in the low 90's but I'm not sure if I should make the transition to a more difficult course so soon.

My little secret. (not really, my girlfriends best friends dad is a local tour pro) She makes the call out there and they know who her dad is. Let's go play sometime.

They have the best driving range, since it's real grass and not dumb mats. It's my favorite even though it's not open at night, even though they're fully equipped with lights, which is just silly in Texas weather.

      Day 22 (23 May 24) / played the weekly nine-hole semi-scramble with the guys.  Solid play - primary focus was on making solid contact with the irons.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 148: 5/23/24 Hit balls on the range measuring ball speed for each club. Recently watched a fitting video where the fitter said he targeted 5 mph ball speed increase for each club.  Mine weren’t quite there. 4 and 5 mph were pretty similar except for 1 ball. Big jump for hybrid, bigger jump for 4-hybrid, and huge change for driver. Swung for the fences with driver and hit them all pretty straight at the end of my session. Several at 111 mph, which is above my normal speed. Finished with chipping release 1 with several clubs.  Good session!

      Birdied 15 at my home course today and made a birdie the other day at a course I don’t usually play. Will update the spreadsheet once I’m home on my computer.
