Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.

@jsgolfer won't be driving, he'll be riding in comfort in a cushy bus.     But I agree, looks like two bases with minimal long drives to each course.

Oh, @ConorHealy, maybe you don't know our history,  I went with him to Scotland a couple years ago, and was invited on this trip as well.  Sadly, I couldn't fit it into my budget this year, but I know he likes to travel.

A group I am joining is going to the R. T. Jones Trail in Alabama. Last week of March. We will be playing the RTJ courses near Birmingham and Huntsville. I am acquainted with one of the group. I will have 6 new friends, unless we get another 4, then it will be 10. 😉

Yes indeed, John will be driving the bus for 16 of us. Should be a wild and crazy time.

Sounds like the Newport Cup, and my trip to Scotland with @jsgolfer.  Its always good to make new golf friends!

I got two trips lined up this year. 

First, Pinehurst next month. Qual Ridge, Mid Pins, Southern Pines 😁, Mid South, Talamore. I am looking forward to playing Southern Pines since it got redone. 

Second, a trip to eastern Wisconsin in early August. Whistling Straights, Blackwolf Run, Erin Hills.

Awesome. We were originally going to play Quail Ridge but ended up moving some things around and are going to do the following when we go in May

Day 1 Tobacco Road

Day 2 Southern Pines and Pine Needles

Day 3 Tot Hill Farm

There are a couple good course vlog/matches on YouTube at Southern Pines, it looks awesome.

Quail Ridge is a good course. They did a renovation and reopened back in 2017. For the area, at $80 during peak season, it is a great value. Especially since they put in the tournament Bermuda greens you see at Pinehurst #2, Midpines, etc.
