I'm not sure if this has been asked already, but it would be kinda cool if us forum members arranged a gathering to go play some golf Obviously we couldn't do a nation-wide thing, but perhaps interstate gatherings could work. Seems like we all are grouped in certain areas.

What do you guys think...no money has to be involved... haha The wintry months would give us time to plan, etc. Would be fun.

maybe regional rounding per year?

It will be awesome if we meet in person to share out interest and enjoy a day.

If people were up to that, it could happen.

Would be cool. But it would probably have to be broken down into regions.

I figured inter-state groups would be best...

I'm basically in the city, off of 610 and San Felipe.

I remember there was a guy about 30-40 minutes drive from me, but he doesn't seem to be around anymore. Shame, because he recommended a course to try and I played/loved it, so I could have come to have a social round with him. I don't think there are many people in the UK/GB at all, so I guess this is a strictly Yank ordeal if it happens

I would like to play some of you self proclaimed low handicappers :-p

Ireland is on my 'places I have to see' list and is quickly becoming short listed. I figure it will be the next major trip that is taken after we get the kids to one of the Disney theme parks.

Here's what's in my ogio.gif Grom...

Great idea. Lots of feedback from the Texans.
I'd say a course midway between DFW and Houston would be ideal.
Here are some course suggestions:
http://www.whisperingpinesgolfclub.com/ expensive (never played but always ranked high on lists)
www.crown-colony.com never played this one either, but highly ranked
www.pinedunes.com affordable and would get my vote.
http://www.woodforestgolf.com be my second place vote.

Does anyone know if Waterwood National in Huntsville plans on reopening?

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
