Ok, so lets get this settled: Can someone PLEASE get in touch with the courses highlighted so far (CM, Talega) and see if/when we can get a deal on a group. Also, we should try to get a headcount to help with getting a deal ....If there are other course suggestions, speak now!

I know I was in for the 30th, and 99% sure I can do the 23rd, so count me in for either.

Ok I'm in for the 23rd and if I don't hear anything from GD on his inquiry in the next couple days, I'll just email Talega.

Yeah, I have an email into them (I don't have the PGA member pull that Mike has ;)) and will post here as soon as I hear anything back from them.  If they are booked or too expensive, and Costa Mesa is not desirable, then some other options are ....

Mile Square

Arroyo Trabuco

Crossings at Carlsbad

Encinitas Ranch

Anybody else have other ideas???

EDIT:  Oh, and because I figure that it doesn't hurt to just ask, I have also sent an email inquiry into Arroyo Trabuco and Tijeras Creek.

Looks like nobody has said no to the 23rd. So can we call that the official day while we figure out what course works for us?

Ha, I believe I played Encinitas Ranch before (the only course I've played in SoCal), and The Crossings is right around the corner from my company's corporate office.  I stayed in the hotel across the street from it when I started my job training and thought the course looked nice.

I vote for whichever course I can hit more drivers on.

Other suggestions?

Two suggestions to be torn apart: Pelican (too spensive!) and Shorecliffs (blech!)

Wishing Aliso Creek was 18....That course is a lot of fun!

El dorado San Juan hills Black Gold I still like Talega even if its a couple bucks more, I think it's worth it. Industry hills was suggested earlier too (More expensive than Talega).

Out of those two I'd vote for Encinitas Ranch, more user friendly and will definitely be less expensive.

Yeah no PGA membership here, (that's Erik), just gotta talk about how much exposure the course can get being mentioned on a site with 650,00 unique visitors a month.

Agreed.  We need to do the 23rd.  Lets roll with that if possible.

I'm checking with CM.  I'll let you know as soon as I get a price for us.  I'm going with three foursomes for now.... So 12 guys.  We can increase or decrease once we get a firm headcount.  I'll report back soon.

We should get some price checks from other courses for more options.

I vote for the date & course that causes the most stress & problems for BeachComber so that I can beat his 5 handicap brains in.

Black Gold in Yorba Linda is a nice 27 hole course, I have played there several times.  It might be a good option.

I'm glad it's the 23rd now as I am going to be out of town on the 30th.

Lurking...waiting for the final call.

You are right, I was thinking of Moorpark CC for some reason.

    • Attempting to lift. Any better?  
    • Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!
    • Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)
    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
