Not to turn this into a Stone Creek thread, the course is nice. It is so well kept. My friends and I joke that the rough on this course is like some greens we've been on. It is a wide course. It is a good design. Even when busy you don't get the feeling of being crowded. But I rarely play it during full price season. I'll travel 30 minutes and spend half the amount.

I actually got a full membeship at Stone Creek for 2011. I was a member at U of I, but everytime I played Stone Creek I was dismayed at U of I. The range at SC is just so much better than U of I.

Rained all day today, wanted to get out and play 9. Going to get much colder the next few days, might have to wait a while to play again.

I wanted wanted to play Stone Creek this winter but the weather didnt let me. I still have till March to get the winter rate for Stone Creek, but if the course is as good as some say I might have to fork up the 50 dollars to play..

Not one ounce of snow. It was a really nice day with little wind. Sunny all day. 45* . Cooled off around the 14th hole due to it being on lower ground but actually was very nice. The next day however it rained all day and today looks like a blizzard. Thats why I said the weather changes every ten minutes here in Illinois.

we have the same exact weather here that your having and have had, we just had snow on the ground that was melting that day. That day was warm, it was like 45 degrees here but all the snow was melting on the ground. You live about 40-45 miles south of me in Peoria,il,

The night that you guys got all of that snow we missed it. It was just visible in the air and never accumulated. But it is now. lol

it's blistering here in New Berlin WI. With wind chill, it's -5 degree. funny weather story in Minnesota, the Metrodome deflated because of 17 inch snow fall yesterday.

Its suppose to be 50* Friday, anybody planning on trying to get a round in?

I will be visiting the in-laws so I hope to get a game or two in if the weather will cooperate.

I'm in central Iowa, I wonder how far I would have to drive to play on Friday?

Was able to get out and play 9 today...  The ground was very solf, no ball roll whatsoever, and the 20-25mph wind kicked my butt, but I had a blast anyways!  I hope the rain holds out tomorrow and I can get out again.
