I agree.  Golfingdad is a good guy.  I've played with him several times and always enjoyed the round.  I vote for the 16th.

Ha!  What he's not telling you is that he enjoys playing with me because I stink and am easily beatable.

We haven't played for money yet, but if we had, he'd have waxed me every time.

Oh, and I like Mile Square too.  (Haven't been there in forever though)

Either is fine with me.  They are both very similar in design and layout from what I recall.  I would say go with whichever is available.  The challenge is going to be getting a tee time for more than 4 guys.  From what I recall, the course books up fairly quickly.  So whomever is volunteering to set this up, may have to make a few calls to the course to work through the details?

Also, we should start a fresh thread for this so that people see it and it doesn't get lost in this thread.

Just joined this group.  I'll be moving to SoCal (sort of) this summer; figure I'll be playing as much golf as I can in and around the San Bernadino area.  Maybe I'll be able to join up with one of your outings at some point.

Short: Anyone interested in playing Tustin Ranch next Thursday?

Long: Next Thursday is my B-day, and in years past I got free golf at TR, but this year I get 18 for $25 (a major discount that I HAVE to take advantage of. I can also bring "Birthday Guests" along and they get to play for $60 (which is a small discount off the 'normal' $85 dollar rate (plus I get in for free if people are playing with me)....

So, again, anyone interested in playing next Thurday afternoon, say around 1pm? PM if you are....

Happy Birthday!  I just hit it up there for my birthday a couple weeks ago.  You should get free golf, lunch, and range balls if you have another person with you who is paying.

I wish I could do it, but I snuck out of work last week to play once, and am going to sneak out of work either next week or the following week to get out to Oak Creek for the first time.  I got a tournament there in a few weeks and wanna give it a look-see first if I can.

Good luck!  And we'll see you April 7th in Palm Springs!

Thanks! I'll be sure to post some pics and do a review after my round as well. REALLY looking forward to #11. TR seems like a really nice course. And Oak Creek is supposed to be really nice as well. Hoping to get out there soon as well.

Well, posted a short review and a pic for TR. Was a really nice course, but a bit pricey though. Pretty sure I wont be headed back except for 1) Early morning rounds ("The Big Easy": $26 for 9 holes played from the reds; perfect for an early round before work) 2) Birthdays (mine or anyone else where we can play for a discount)

Looks like I'm gonna go play Riverview this weekend. Hopefully will get some more pics to post from there as I know many people have asked me about the course (it has a less than stellar rep).

Riverview, ughh.. Real inexpensive course but just ehhh. has some fun holes and good greens but more often than not I try and stay away.

Yeah. As you're well aware, rates in OC can be brutal, so in that respect its nice. It certainly could use some work on the conditions. Fairways, iirc, are just shy of terrible. Pics on Monday!

btw, your "ehhh" is pretty close to the 4.68/10 "Fair" rating I saw for it elsewhere....

Oh, and river was actually full when I drove by there yesterday, so hopefully it'll be nicer than usual....

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
