Hello and welcome!  I'm from Michigan as well.  Get up every morning and watch the weather anticipating that someday the weather will warm up consistently and we'll be able to golf.

haha I do the same. I check the 10 day forecast like 3 times a day just to see if one day it will be warm enough to get on the range.

I am a Michigan native as well. What school do you attend? I almost went to Oakland, but it didn't work out.

At any rate, glad you found us.

I especially appreciate the equipment reviews and light-hearted posts you find here.

I go to Wayne State. Wish I could go away, but the money situation kind of pt a damper on that. Its a pretty good school though, so I dont mind.

In regards to the sand trap, I found this website about 2 years ago but just never posted, which I regret. I practically live on this site, and it has actually inspired me to start my own site, but it is not half of what the sand trap is...

I always enjoy the early part of the season because I get the chance to play courses that I wouldn't normally play.  I'm willing to pay the cheaper spring rates, but not some of the more expensive summer rates

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues.
