Thanks!

I play all over really - Univ of Maryland alot, and sometimes the munis in the city (I live in the city), but lately i've been branching out to some of the better courses in the burbs, such as Augustine and Old Hickory in VA. I'm learning there's a ton of good courses around DC, but they're all around an hour's drive from the city (and not cheap I might add). @ragotona: Have you ever played Canon Ridge? If so, how's that? There's a possible tournament I might play in down there in a couple of weeks.

Thanks!

I play Augustine quite a bit, and just played Cannon a couple of weeks ago. It's a fantastic layout, in great shape having just hosted a USPGT event a few weeks ago. I really only dislike one hole (#12, I believe). It's a par five that doesn't really have a good place to land the ball. Slopes hard from right to left -- anything in the fairway collects in the rough on the left. I suppose it's possible to lay up off the tee, but who does that on a par five???

    • Day  3 (4 May 24) - Easy pitch day with 9i in the backyard.  Worked on staying smooth thru impact, keeping shots to 20yds or less. 
    • From what I’ve read, it was in the manufacturing process and how the covers were nicking pretty easy.  He has had to resource his factory as the one used earlier is now a TM owned facility.  Initial reports seem to indicate the redesign is going to be a winner…
    • Day 129: 5/4/24 Stack training but could not certify my warmup speed. Dealing with a pulled neck muscle. Chips and pitches at a local course for about 15 minutes.
    • Typically less than 50. I find this can be affected by the "CART" signs on a given course. I don't like taking my rangefinder out of the cart and carrying it around to the green. I am very fearful I will leave it somewhere. 
    • First ever holed out greenside bunker shot! It's crazy it took this long to finally get one during a round, but the cold streak is officially over. Hole 6 on the Palmer Course at PGAN. I hit my driver like 225 into a really stiff wind, then worm burned a hybrid into the bunker. I was about I dunno, 40-45 feet away. Birdie! Let's go! The red Xs the approximate location of each shot.  Really fun!!
