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...

Check it out and let me know what you all think...

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?

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      "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

      By GolfLug · Posted

      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.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
