Is San Jose Country Club your home course? One of our brokers at work said he's a member there and the grass had a disease and had to do a lot of maintenance the next few weeks.

@RPMPIRE Yup. The closure, green replacement, and sandchanneling was planned before the fungus attack. The fungus attacked us sometime in July and made a bunch of areas really bad, particularly around the greens.

I'm less enthusiastic about golfing mostly because I've played really poorly this year, but still up for this happening.  Let's discuss some dates and hope the weather holds up.

Sup fellas?  It's getting cold outside!

Yes it is. My apologies for not keeping up with this outing. I'm thinking of saving the bigger outing for early next year or even the Springtime.

In the meantime, if a few guys are available, we can set up something on a weekend in the coming weeks. Hopefully it stays dry then.

Best Regards,
Ryan

I might want to play Coyote Creek Next Friday afternoon (twilight).

Does anyone want to join me and my son?

Looks like it is in San Jose, which is a couple hour drive for me.  I will give it some thought this weekend.  I'm driving 1.5 hours in the other direction to visit an uncle for Thanksgiving the day before, that is the only thing that would keep me from going.

Yeah, this is a tough season to plan golf outings. Let's see, we're not firm on the exact time either.

Look forward to it, if you can make it :-)

I'll have family in town so I definitely won't be able to make it on that Friday. Would have loved to join you guys. Have fun out there!

In any case, I will let you all know how it goes, hoping it does not get rained out. Might be a possible location for a NorCal outing?

I'm in the Fresno area, so I am pretty much dead middle of SoCal and NorCal.  Probably join you guys at some of your NorCal events if it's not too far from the Elk Grove area, can stay with a family member who lives there.  My brother Golfingdad always talks about his SoCal outings so maybe it's about time I got in to the NorCal side and when we play this California Ryder Cup thing I can get in his head and we can dominate him and his SoCal buddies, LOL.

Getting a little confident there with your snazzy new clubs, eh?? ;) Alright, I gotcha.

I'm in and around the Elk Grove area, so maybe we can meet up and play sometime.  Most of my family stays there and that's where I used to coach.

Lihu, you're gonna have to count me out on Friday unfortunately.  Maybe another time.

I heard that place is a 36 hole complex? Never played there but have heard really good things about it.

Then of course there is my home. http://www.roddyranch.com/

That CA ryder cup match would be an awesome outing. our club competes against 2 other clubs in the area in a ryder cup format called the diablo cup, I have not had the chance to play in it yet cause I just didn't play enough events this past season.

Maybe if the Cal Cup event happens we could have it alternate from northern to southern every year or do 1 weekend north and the next south.

That is a great idea.

Being realistic, though, us NorCal guys need to get some rounds in together.  The SoCal guys will have quite the team camaraderie built up by the time we get a match put together, which will be tough to overcome.  We have to start building our own!

Good news is we have time, as a Ryder Cup style match would probably be best suited for mid-to-late summer anyway, right?

That is good that time is plenty for now, but it also flies by, we would need at least 10 to 12 players right?

Have fun and hope to see you at the So. Cal. outing. :-)

For the "Ryder Cup", will be on the Nor. Cal. or So. Cal Team?

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
