We'll just hijack you back to Erie then. I am sure you could fit in the trunk with the golf clubs right?

I'm short and pretty lightweight...

I'll know for sure by the end of the week. It's a bummer, I was really looking forward to this...especially since I've been playing the best golf of my life (sans putting) through my two short rounds this year.

Nope because I don't want to have to see that many Bridgestone golf balls get lost.

Putting is easy to fix.

Putting is easy to fix.

Yeah, I just lost the feel for it...I literally did not touch a golf club between late September and June. It started coming back to me at the end of my last round.

Last year I spent little to no time working on putting, and it's showed...been rusty. However, my ball-striking with wedges and irons has been phenomenal (for me)...and that was 95% of what I worked on last season, and it seems to have stuck. Hit (I believe) 6 GIR my last time out, all but one from 115+ yards.

That's good news. After watching all the old bad habits that crept back into my putting stroke, it needs some fixin.

You have only until July 23rd to find your roommate and book your room.

Please call, give them your name and the information in the first post ("The Sand Trap Golf Group" is our group name), and two of you can stay for $139 plus taxes (6% occupancy, 7% hotel).

Cool?

P.S. Some of you might want to bring a friend. That's good - please consider it. :) Just add them to the list as " @iacas friend (Ivan)" or something like that.

Count me in. My work schedule is locked for the week of the 11th.

I will book the hotel on 7/20-ish.

Now, I need to figure out a way to book the flight and transport my clubs around.

I won't be bringing anyone, so I'll need a roommate.

I'm up for that, but I still need to firm up my plans before committing. Still need a flight that takes me through Erie, PA.

So now the current list is:

  1. @iacas
  2. @iacas buddy ( @mvmac )
  3. @vasaribm
  4. @saevel25
  5. @cipher
  6. @Jeremie Boop
  7. @Slice of Life
  8. @CarlSpackler
  9. @billchao
  10. @georgep
  11. @jamo
  12. @cedrictheo
  13. @Divot Master
  14. @Lihu

If you're coming, or bringing a buddy, add your name (or their name + yours) to the list. I've modified Mike's listing to look like a "buddy" listing.

I'm firming up the plans for the night before. The wife and kid are on a vacation this weekend, so the house is all mine. Could serve as a backup plan to hang out in the back yard or something. :)

Maybe send @mvmac and @Lihu away for the evening and try to come up with a way to not get your asses handed to you in next years Newport Cup??

It's one idea at least. :-P

That's easy. We simply require that all West Coast team members are on Evolvr and we subtly give you bad information for the three months leading up to the tournament. :-)

LOL ... three months??  That's not going to hurt me because I barely submit a video every three months these days.

But your point is noted.  I'll probably still be working on the same things, so when Stephan tells me that I need to make the plane steeper on the downswing, kick the right knee towards the ball, and try to "crouch" into it as I hit it ... I'll know something is up. :-P

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By GolfLug ·

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      Revisiting My First Golf Instructor

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
