Nah, Tristan was only saying (I think) that the people he met were playing their tournament in March, then a couple people questioned him and I also "fanned the fire" simply because I already know tha

If something isn't ironed out by the end of Feb for the April 7th or 8th in Palm Springs... Then I'll step in and put something together.  Tristan/Mike - you two were going to lock down a course in Palm Springs, right?

I'll PM or email Mike and see where we stand on this... I think he was going to try to work something out with one of the courses and see if we can get a better rate.

So, I was going back over the possible courses and all of that and I think we should play Oak Valley in Beaumont. I know that it's not quite the Palm Springs area but for pretty much everybody (except me) it's closer than the desert (about an hour for those coming from the LA or OC areas). Also the course is in phenomenal shape and their regular rate is $55 weekdays and $69 weekends so I'm sure we can get something pretty affordable worked out, more so than if it was in the desert. Given the fact that it's closer, in great shape and likely cheaper than the Palm Springs area, I think we'd get a better turnout.

Here is the link to the site...

White tees anybody? ;)

At nearly 6400 yards, I think the white tees would be more than fine. The course still rates 71.0/131 from there... not exactly easy.

I got a chance to play there last fall and it was not packed at all, due to cold wethaer I think, so we played from blue tee and ......well too much for us but very enjoyable.

I remember some fun par3 holes; island green and big downhill shot.

It is a very good course for sure and can't beat the price too.

Yeah I think Oak Valley is a good choice, just left a message for the tournament director.  Looking at having about three groups?

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
