What time are people planning to show up?

Well, first tee time is 7:52, so I'll probably be there by 7 to give myself plenty of time to warm up and putt and everything.

Drew (or anybody else that has played there), do they serve breakfast there?

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

I don't know, but if they do, make sure you order super-runny French toast.

Looks like the breakfast is just simple stuff that you can purchase and take with you during the round.  I'll probably stop and eat somewhere before I get to the course.  Sunday is the only day I get to eat whatever I want, and I typically cook a big breakfast.

They have Sunday brunch starting at 10, not sure if they're open before that. I'm gonna guess no.

I believe all of the kids are already playing from the white according to Tristan's revised groupings.  Are there any others?

And since the 20+ handicaps are already playing from the whites, the only person who would be affected by a 17+ threshold is bmartin at 17.6.

I'm good from the blues, no need to adjust just for me.  I played the course almost exactly 1 year ago and shot a 53/52, 6 over per my HC at the time.   Hopefully I can improve on that this time!

Looks good guys!

Thanks for organizing all this and appreciate getting the higher handicaps on the appropriate tee box.  This will definitely help... And make it more enjoyable for the group.

One last note about Telega.  Their range setup is kind of goofy.  Golfingdad, can you give all the guys here tips on what they should expect to do early AM to get to the range?  I don't believe you can park your car at the range?  I know they have some sort of cart that drives you to the range, but I've never used the range at this course.  I typically go and just practice putting near the clubhouse practice green, then go with whatever I have on the first tee given the range is whacked.  But maybe Golfingdad can give us tips on what we should do to get some practice swings in before we tee off??

Those not in group "A" are in trouble now, I will have my new headcovers in time which will drop my HC at least 3-5 points right?

Correct, the range isn't open (for cars) until 9 I believe, so you have to take the shuttle from the clubhouse. I think it's a 5 min ride so I'd say just budget 10-15 more than you normally would for a course with a "normal" range. And pretty sure you'll have to buy the balls at the clubhouse too ... Don't think the range attendant will be down there yet either.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.

      Puerto Vallarta Vacation / Vidanta

      By Mystique · Posted

      Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
