hi there, southern il here, down by salem. I had another account but i forgot my password and couldnt log back in because I lost access to my hotmail email account where the email containing my password was located. I play anywhere from up here by salem to down by mt vernon to as far south as carbondale.

Welcome to the Forum.

I am in the Champaign area, what courses do you play? I have been playing Blue Needles mostly because its a nice low traffic course...

I live just south of Champaign in Camargo. If you ever want to come down here I play in Villa Grove it is a private couse so it is quiet. I can bring you out if you want to play something new it is $1/hole for guests. I have a lot of friends that play at Catlin and enoy it. The Legends is a par 3 course on the west side of Champaign and it is something different and fun. Right now I am nursing fractured ribs so I haven't been able to play for a few weeks but am going to the doc now to see how much longer I am on the bench. I also play Oakland it is nice. I have played Stone Creek a few times but it is to nice for a hack like me. Let me know we can try and get together sometime and play a round. Take care

I know exactly where that's at, I drive that way several times a year to go hunting in Murdock... I don't know how I would do at a private course, I am still getting use to the game and I don't want to hit anybody house or car lol. I am starting to really get better and am starting to straighten out my drives some. I play Legends quite a bit because it is just 5 minutes from my house, and use their driving range also, it is a nice little course... We should try and get together sometime and get a game in on a couse that isnt that busy and layed back... Let me know when you are able to play.

Villa Grove is not one of those private courses it is a 9 hole course that rubs the fields. No houses to hit and you would only have 1 shot to hit a car but you would have to go WAY left. So if you want some new senery......but we should do Legends sometime. Let me know and we can make it happen. Got the ok to play but take it easy I was told. So my swing is very rusty and probably pretty bad since it has been a couple of months. Oh well it is all for fun anyway though.

[bwell]

That sounds good to me, I heard Villa Grove is a nice course... I am also up for Legends, its always a fun quick course to play... When were you thinking?

[bwell]

Just checked out Villa Groves course and it looks really nice, its nice and wide open like Catlin.
