Any of ya'll ever play at Birch Creek? We were on vacation a couple of years ago on our way to a float trip and saw the sign from I44 and decided to stop and play.

I don't know what ya'll are used to playing but I enjoyed it. Next time through there I'm curious to see if I can improve my score any.

Bluffs can be had for cheap if you go through golfnow.com. We play there for $30-$40 a couple of times a year. I've never heard of birch creek, looking it up now.

Got a tournament good (this) Friday in Farmington at Crowne Point. We play it every year on good friday rain or shine. Course said the snow should melt by then and is letting us play. Cant wait to see the puddles on those fairways.

Saturday features a Golf, Fitness and Health Expo at Stonewolf GC in Fairview Heights, IL.

Events include chipping and putting contests, video swing analysis, plus tips on training, nutrition, equipment options, etc. I hope the snow melts, or it will be indoors.

Focus, connect and follow through!

From what I can gather on this site, it is a system that teaches the golf swing based around 5 swing keys. If you search the forums, you will notice that quite a few of the instructors and members endorse this system.

Sounds like Stonewolf is worth playing.  Lived on the east side years ago but still have family in the Lebanon/Mascoutah area.  Going to be there for a week in May and will be bringing the clubs along.  Anyone familiar with Stonebridge near Collinsville, IL?  I used to live in C'ville before it was built but thought I'd like to try it.

Thanks

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.

      Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
