Or should we be worried that you are getting ready to mount a full scale invasion (hopefully to free Orange County from the tyranny of high greens fees)??

SHHH! I'm counting on the element of surprise :-P

PS.  @Lihu and @hacker101 you guys should probably plan just a 4some ... it's going to be tough for me, now that I think about it.  This weekend I'm playing Saturday and Monday.  The 16th I have a tournament, the 22nd I'm already committed to golf, and after that I'm booked for a couple of weeks for kids birthdays.  I like to sneak out of work in the afternoon sometimes during the week ... but Yorba is too far for that.  I think I'll just have to make 5/4 my first trip out there and rely on Google Maps and Aimpoint. :)


Don't sweat the dates, I have a lesson in El Dorado this Saturday, and have a tentative plan to play a few holes with @hacker101 and his son for a few holes there.

I just want to go before our official outing data and check this place out. Save some of  your money for a mini-outing. We can do a foursome or an 8-some and switch around teams at the turn.

Look forward to something at Black Gold even if the actual outing is not there.

I'm new to SoCal but I never pass up a golf tournament. If you've got space on May 4th, I'll make it.

Absolutely. We haven't finalized anything yet, so you're in! Just stay tuned to this thread as it gets closer to find out all the details!

Cool.

We're also trying to do a pre-outing outing for those who have never played the planned course.

We are thinking it could be Black Gold?

It was mentioned earlier, but no attention given to the Temecula Creek Inn suggestion. The reason I bring it up is because I just drove past it on 15N and it looked great. My vote goes there. Also, if we go to TC Inn, I would like to give a go at organizing it, aka logistics.

Ok, so it looks like we have three possible courses (Black Gold, Red Hawk, and Temecula Creek). SPEAK UP PEOPLE. Also, someone want to call the courses and see what they can do for us on 5/4 with 4 foursomes?

I'm up for any of them, as I already committed the time.

Black Gold would be the easiest to justify, because we celebrate Mother's "week" and it starts that Sunday. O:)

I'll put my vote in for Temecula Creek but I'm good with any of them.

My vote would be for either of the two in Temecula... However, you guys know that I'm in for wherever it is.

We are easy, I like the idea of going to Temecula not an area we have played before.

I'd like to play somewhere other than Temecula Creek. I've played there a lot. It's nice. But for me to drive 2 hrs. I'd rather play a better course.

What about Redhawk?  That one looks nice to me, but I've never played there either.

Anybody have any connections at Journey??? It looks like an amazing course, but without a little help, it's probably a little out of our price range.

Redhawk looks the best of the three to me... I've heard really great things about Journey, but yeah, probably a bit out of range price wise for some.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
