I haven't seen a similar thread yet, so here it is...

What part of the lower mainland are you out of? Where do you play out of?

Like a few of you (I'm sure), I'm new to the lower mainland although I've been coming here for business for 5 years. Finally moved the family out, moved to Furry Creek (mostly to be near a golf course) in June of 08, from Edmonton. I was too far from the city (kids school), so we settled again in West Van this summer. I thought I would join a men's club, but I soon learned none existed on the North Shore, at least that I know of, so I've just been catching a game here and there, with a few friends and hackers . Used to play 100 rounds a year, now it's a dozen if I'm lucky, mostly due to being busy setting up business, etc, but also due to lack of regular men's league. So now I'm officially in golf withdrawal . Northlands tells me they're trying to get a men's league going, so that might be good. 2010 will be back up over 50 rounds...

Perhaps this thread can be used for the Vancouverites out there who don't know each other yet and for groups that need to fill up 4-somes or singles looking for a game...

Cheers

    • Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month. 
    • Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough. 
    • Day 2 (22 Jun 26) - used the clip the tee drill today - focused on picking the tee and then collecting the divot.  Hit a few hard foam balls later in the session.  
    • Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft. 
    • That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
