Hi there, I live in St. Paul - near Lexington & Summit. I'm a native Chicagoan myself - welcome to the Twin Cities!

To help come up with some course suggestions, a few questions for you:

1. Where in the area will you be moving?
2. What's the highest amount you prefer to spend for a round?
3. How far are you willing to drive?

In my bag:

Driver Cleveland Classic 310 Tour 10.5°  Miyazaki Kusala 61 Black Reg
Fairway Wood Cleveland Launcher FL 3/15° Miyazaki C.Kua 43 Reg
Hybrids Cleveland Mashie 3/20.5° & 4/23° Miyazaki C.Kua 43 Reg

Irons Wilson Ci9 5-6-7-8-9-PW-GW FST ss105 Reg

thanks for the response. here are my answers. 1. not exactly sure where I will be moving, most likely western suburbs (minnetonka or Hopkins) 2. Ill pay up to $100-150 for a nice course if it justifies the fee. i'd also like some more everyday courses in the 30-50 range. 3. probably not an issue. i drive 45-75 minutes to all of the courses i play in chicago.

I live in Zimmerman (about 50 miles NW of Minneapolis - originally from WI). I reviewed Riverwood National last year which is a decent track. A couple of sites to get you started:

Twin Cities Golf

Golf Minnesota

Explore Minnesota Golf

Minnesota Golf

Shoot me a PM sometime and perhaps we can get a few forum members together for a round.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 51 (yesterday was 50, not 59 -- that was a typo).  I didn't have a ton of time today.  I hit a dozen balls with a 6-iron in my practice room.   Amazingly, after this I did the ShotScope analysis of yesterday's round;  my approach play was at the 5 hcp level.  That's pretty darn good, but unfortunately for my score, some of that came from hitting a few good recovery shots.  But I also hit some really good approach shots that weren't from trouble!

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By JetFan1983 · Posted

      Shot a 37 today! Palmer Course, PGA National. Really fun. 6/9 GIR, no lost balls. The double and the bogey were both three putts from like 35 feet or so.  The birdie at the last was really fun. I stood over that fifteen footer and thought wow I’m really about to make this, aren’t I? And I hearted it. Really fun. It’s like 9000 degrees outside but I battled through it well. Good times.

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      I had been in a bit of a slump for the month of June. Handicap index has slowly risen, and there were few sub-80 scores. Today was a different story at Leslie Park GC. Lots of solid shots, GIR's, up & downs, for a 77 (7.8 differential). As with most rounds, there were a few loose shots and crappy putts, but it was a good day.
