Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?


Smidd4

Recommended Posts

Two things that are undeniably awesome in life are travel and golf. I've traveled plenty during my life so far and this last year enjoyed my first full season of golf. I was fortunate enough to score two free tickets anywhere Alaska Airlines flys, so a buddy and I went to Palm Springs for a weekend. It was such an awesome trip that immediately after it was over I was thinking about the next one. We are going to keep it in state this year and just head over to Seattle for a long weekend of awesomeness. Where is your next trip going to take you?

My goals are to return to Hilton Head and to go to Ponte Vedra along with a visit to the World Golf Hall of Fame in St. Augustine. As I have posted on other threads, I was fortunate enough to go to the Sea Pines Plantation in 1989 and 1992, but we were not able to play Harbour Town. As to St. Augustine, I agree with the Black Knight-"For the LOVE OF GOLF, YOU must go"-to the Hall of Fame!

In about 10 days I'll be headed to Palm Springs for a week.  After that, I have two weeks in Ireland planned for June, and our normal Thanksgiving week in Pinehurst.  Looks like a good year!

We are pretty much settled in for the winter. We just returned from Mexico after a 2 week stay. Got some golf and fishing in while down there. 

Our next road trip will most likely be our trip up into the northwest to visit some friends. Main golf stop will be in Bandon , Oregon. What routes we take to get there is anyone's guess. My wife navigates these trips. 

Long range plan is our annual trip to Death Valley in August. About 10 of us meet their every year for yearly golfing sun burns.

A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

I'll be in SF and Tucson in a week. Hope to get at least a round or two in each city. 

Seeing that CO is covered in snow, no golf here for a while.

My next trip is to Coorg (approximately 250 km from Bangalore), which is coffee growing district and is a hill station, and which is also where we have a coffee estate.  This is second weekend of April for a golf tournament (The Coorg Family Cup).  Currently a lot of my travel for golf is mostly for tournaments due to work and family not giving me much time for long trips.

Enjoy!

In 10 days I will start my 50-state-50-capital golf trip! First course, Raven golf club in Phoenix, Az.

That sounds like a blast!  I know others have said this, but please keep in touch as you travel.  I'll bet you'll find playing partners from TST all along the way.

Being a man of modest means and cheap tendencies, we have one vacation per year and its always the Outer Banks. This year, it's looking like early September, That ought to at least get us out of peak season, so three rounds or so will be in the offing. Carolina Club and the Pointe have always been good for us. May give Nags Head a shot this time.

I'm heading to St. Petersburg, FL during the third week of May. Staying out at John's Pass. Mainly going to visit family and do some snook fishing, but I will likely ship the clubs down and try the course @vangatorsuggested - Mangrove Bay. There's also a par 3 in Dunedin that looks nice. Might even try Twin Brooks down on the south side of town if I have time.

    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).  
    • Wordle 1,003 3/6 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩   felt a little like Wyndham when the first three green and I began the fist pump…
    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
    • Day 2.    couple mins of rolling putts end over end.    10 mins of Slow, mirror work, working on starting the downswing and impact wrist positions. Hit a couple balls into the net after.    Then finished with a couple chips to see if I could repeat what I worked on yesterday.
