Oops didn't look at the calendar, meant the 23rd...

If it's good for everyone else I can see if I can make that work on my end.

FWIW, I can likely take a Friday off if it's good for others.

The 23rd is good for me.

Sounds like the 23rd of July is good for the four of us @krupa, @colin007, @RFKFREAK, and me @onthehunt526...

I was thinking Conklin Player's Club because it's a nicer course, not insanely expensive $54 with cart on the weekend...

But if @RFKFREAK and @colin007 don't want a 2.5 hour car ride, Afton is an hour and 45 minutes from both ends.

What's in Shane's Bag?     

Ball: 2022 :callaway: Chrome Soft Triple Track Driver: :callaway:Paradym Triple Diamond 8° MCA Kai’li 70s FW: :callaway:Paradym Triple Diamond  H: :callaway: Apex Pro 21 20°I (3-PW) :callaway: Apex 21 UST Recoil 95 (3), Recoil 110 (4-PW). Wedges: :callaway: Jaws Raw 50°, 54°, 60° UST Recoil 110 Putter: :odyssey: Tri-Hot 5K Triple Wide 35”

my vote is for the shorter drive, honestly. esp since i'll probably be the one driving. @RFKFREAK?

AFAIK, that date is fine.

As long as Afton isn't like $100 for the round, your call since you're driving. :banana:

hmmm.... not sure.  the Afton scorecard shows basically all back and forth holes, pretty boring.

edit - just mapped it to Conklin and google says 2hrs 12mins - that would be a flat 2 hrs with how i drive.

Just looking at Conklin, it has a good amount of dog legs and some really interesting holes:

8th: Par 4 - gotta hit over water

10th: Par 3 - Island Green

13th: Par 3 - Gotta carry the water

But like I said, you're call.

Conklin is good for me, It's like 2 hours from you Albany guys, and an hour and 35 from me and @krupa. Mostly highway miles. Even going the speed limit I think CPC is 30-35 minutes from Afton, it's like 23 miles to Binghamton via I-88 (which merges to 81 South) then another 7 miles to Exit 1 of I-81. And Conklin Players Club is right on the main road, you literally can't miss it...

So CPC on July 23rd, I'm not sure of their booking policy, but I'll look around and see if I can find a deal...

If anyone else aside from 

@krupa

@RFKFREAK@colin007 or myself are interested... please post in this thread... Conklin Players Club July 23rd...

I'm fine with either.  Conklin definitely looks like the better of the two courses.

Just looking at the course, it'll be a minor miracle if I shoot under 100 there.

It is and it's easy to find too...

@krupa, are you planning on playing this weekend?

I'll just be happy if I have some golf balls left at the end of the round.   This may be one of those rounds where I score my mood instead of stroke count:  :)    :(   >:(

Yep. I have to meet an electrician at the house on Saturday (time to be determined tomorrow) to get a quote but otherwise, I'm pretty free.

I'm going to bring 100 balls and then probably will have to buy more at the turn. :-\

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By 4zim ·

      Day 48. Got out at lunch to the range to hit some driver shots. Haven’t had much practice there. Focused on setup suggested by @iacas and found some very playable results. I did try to hit a couple of bunker shots after that with much less success 🙃

      Best Shot of the Week

      By StuM ·

      Got a rare birdie on #18 Par 5.  Drive was good and left me in range of the green.  I was @ 210 from the center and needed @ 180 to clear a hazard area.  Green had bunkers lest, right and on back. had been struggling and most shots were short so I took the 225 club figuring back of green hit well. i did hit it well, @ 229 per SS and dead on—kind at the pin.  Ended up @ 1 foot off the back in short rough and lucky for me it was a back pin placement.  Chipped about 15 feet leaving a 3 feet putt for par which I sunk.

      Clubface Control Drills?

      By saevel25 ·

      Yea, so to clarify for me. I do not feel the clubface much in the swing. I feel the weight of the club. I can feel if I hit the club off the heel or toe. When I try to feel if the clubface is open or closed in the swing, I feel it more with my hands, and less of the clubhead. I would classify majority of my swings as not feeling like the clubface does much of all. It feels like I hold the clubface open. In the finish, it doesn't feel like my left hand faces the ground. It feels more like it faces the sky. I will try to be more aware of this, but it was just the sensation I got when I was making what felt like good swings. For the most part, I was hitting slight draws or slight pushes.  On this golf trip, I had to hit a low 8 iron around a tree to the green. I made an alignment adjustment, and actively try to roll my hands a bit more to get it to sling around the corner. I do have a habit of not adjusting how the clubface comes through impact, and I can still hit the ball straight-ish even moving the ball way back in my stance and trying to swing out more.  Yea, my feels are more hands and arms, less actually feeling the clubface.

      That truly had me laughing. Thanks If anyone is interested Sun Day Red is live. I clicked on the hats, seem they are sold out. Shorts 130 bucks, shirts 120, everything seems to be sold out already, at least from what I clicked on. 130 for shorts, I'll pass.
