I vote the beach area or heading South staying on the coast. Never played any of them. IE gets hot and stuffy,  Dos Lagos was an ass kicker front 9  and very hot by 11:00 on the back 9 but fun. Not sure i want to play that course any time soon and not in the summer.

If we head to San Diego maybe a bit to far just a thought.

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

If we go with the LA area (and I know so far nobody has voted for that), Industry Hills is a GREAT course... not sure what pricing would be like but I don't think it'd be that bad.

Safe shot is right side of fairway.  I start w green, go back to tees with lake on the left and return to the hole (need to work on my video skills).

Conditions were great on April 6. You play in and above these canyons.

Our beach options would be fairly limited, I think, due to cost.  Mike is the San Diego expert, but there are a few north San Diego County courses that might fit the bill ... The Crossings at Carlsbad and Encinitas Ranch.  Also a little further north, in my back yard, there is Talega.

I will play anywhere, and I appreciate that the weather near the coast will definitely be nicer, but I want to play at whichever location would bring out the largest group.

Oh, and I would definitely agree with Tristan that Industry Hills (Eisenhower, preferably) would be a great place for us to play.  Not only have a heard it's a great course, but I have a tournament there in August so it would be a nice time for me to get a feel for the place ahead of time. :)

They just got a nice new website too: http://www.ihgolfclub.com/

Anybody have any ideas on actual dates we should be looking at or is it a little early to get into that?

I have played industry a bunch and its very nice.  Wonder what kind of rate they would do as it is a little more expensive than other places.

Well, based on the poll, its looks like we're playing in the IE. Beach, any updates?

So it looks like the majority of guys voted for IE.  Lets pick a date/weekend.  And I'll call some courses and get some information together.

I agree.  I think you originally mentioned June/July as the general time, right?  I'm pretty sure that June 16 is Father's Day (which means that weekend is the US Open) so we can fairly throw that one out the window.  And just to tidy up the choices, let's assume that nobody wants to play the weekend of the British Open either, which is July 20-21.  I'm also going to assume that Sundays are also best, seeing as how nobody's objected to our previous two outings being on a Sunday?  If I'm right about all of that, then that leaves us with these choices:

June 23

June 30

July 7

July 14

Maybe we just take a poll?

Any of those except July 7th would work for me. That's my dad's birthday and I'm sure we'll be doing something with my parents.

I would be interested in joining if there is room.  I've decided that I'm done golfing with my Associate Golf Club, because they are mostly a bunch of old geezer sandbaggers and I have no fun playing from the white tees all of the time.  That will free up some cash for more golfing trips and competitions (even though I suck).  I'll abstain from voting on anything but when date/course is set I'll check availability.

I'm down for the date that most people can attend... June is good if that's the consensus.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

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

      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.
