there are some really nice courses around Seattle, and the people you'd play with are some of the nicest in the States!

Depends how much free time you have and what kinds of cities you like surely.

If it was case of work and hotel room with no free time I'd pick whichever city offered the best hotel. Doesn't matter how great the city is if you're never "in it".

In the Matrix XTT Standbag:

Driver: Biggest Big Bertha 11*
Fairway Wood: Steelhead Plus 3 Wood
Irons: T-Zoid Titanium Insert irons 3-SWWedge: Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.04Putter: Pro Platinum Laguna 34" w/ British Open '04 headcoverBall: ProV1 Rule35 Playing again after a three year hiatus...

Definitely Seattle... some great golf courses nearby... Sahalee, Washington National, Chambers Bay, The Olympic Course at Gold Mountain just to name a few.

Seattle also has decent nightlife, MLB Baseball, and of course you can't forget Pikes Market.

I like Minneapolis enough (never been to seattle) It is a nice city, friendly people (I would find it hard to believe that they are nicer in seattle, but again, never been) clean city, lots of great restraunts. Golf in Minnesota is pretty popular. It has MLB with the twins (although so does Seattle and Philly) so you could catch a baseball game one night.

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Depends on the time of year. I'd choose Minneapolis for July/August---it's probably perfect that time of year.

I'm a Minneapolis native, and you'll love it hear. The weather is WONDERFUL and has been for the past few weeks. Plus a TON of good/cheap/public courses. Make friends with someone who has a boat and get out on Lake Minnetonka or walk around Lake Calhoun (Great area in Uptown).

Post some specific questions and I can be of more advice.

And Minneapolis has a BRAND NEW stadium. Which is gorgeous, and the Twins are (were) playing well.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 313 - I played 18 today. First and last holes were ugly, but I actually played pretty well. Driver was great, irons were alright, and the short game was better than average.

      Day 205 (23 Nov 24) - Worked with the alignment rod and 7i  in reference to ball position in relation to lead foot on full iron shots, noticed an increase in thinned shots last couple of rounds - better contact with the balls (hard foam) during the drill/swing rehearsals.

      Which Irons?

      By iacas ·

      Have you gone to a fitting? A good fitting will not only give you a clubhead but a shaft, etc. that will suit you.

      Irons Too Nice to Use

      By iacas ·

      It's not like the Nike Vapor Pro are exactly a highly sought set of irons.

      Irons Too Nice to Use

      By Typhoon92 ·

      Last night I was putting my Nike Vapor Pro Irons back in my bag.  I had my sons i500’s in there the last couple months after we all went to Top Golf .  I picked up the Nike’s this past spring and they are like new.  I feel guilty using them… I have other irons that aren’t valuable that I could use instead.
