Hoping some of you who are members of private clubs can shed some light on this. Not really a big deal, but just curious really. I'm playing this Sunday at my brother-in-law's club, he said they announced that this Sunday will be walk up tee times only. Show up, check in with the starter and you will be assigned a tee time. He (my brother-in-law) wasn't sure why they are doing this as this is his first year as a member.

What's the deal?

lots of clubs do it and its a great idea. First, it enable you to meet more people. It also maximizes the number of people playing since they won't be any 2somes or 3somes. But more importantly, it lets the starter create groups that will speed up play a bit.

What's in the bag:

Driver: Adams 9064LS (project RIP Shaft) 9.5 degree
3 Wood: Titleist 909R 14.5 degree
Hybrid 3-iron: 19 degree Tour Professional (bent to 18 degrees)Hybrid 4-iron: 21 degree Tour ProfessionalIrons: Tour X-20 5-PW Project X 6.0 shaftsGap Wedge: Mizuno MP10 52.08 Sand Wedge: Mizuno MP10 58.10 Lob Wedge: Nike 62.06

Makes sense. Thanks. Being Father's Day and all they probably expect a busy day, so it's probably a good idea to create as many foursomes as possible.

He also said that they won't give you a tee time until your entire foursome is there ready to go. So if you have 4 guys and are ready to play, they can probably get you right out there without much waiting.

Play really does seem to slow down on Father's Day. I know last year I was headed for the dreaded 5 hour plus round until one of the other guys in the foursome and I left the other 2 guys.

I'm teeing off at 5:37 on Father's day... hopefully that's early enough to not get stuck.

6:45 right before a big group, I just hope they start us off on 1 instead of 10, playing the front second would take forever.

We always send 18 holers off number one and the early 9 holers get sent off the back. (usually about five groups of nine holers on the weekend).

my private club never has tee times. You basically show up, get in line if a lot of others are there, and go off. I like it because I can just show up whenever I want to...

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Zeph ·

      First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
