Tagging @tonygonz1, @Mark B, @Coronagolfman, and @Hacker James to this thread after seeing them in another thread about Southern California.

We'd love to have any or all of you guys at our next outing, which appears like it's going to be March 6th, perhaps somewhere out in the Coachella Valley. :beer:

@tristanhilton85, another option to consider would be the course across the 10 from Tukwet (I forget the name) - I believe you mentioned in the past that you liked that course.  If we're coming all the way to the valley, then I would say let's also consider Shadow Ridge. :)

Coachella Valley is a bit far away for me... unless I can get the wife to schedule a 4 or 5 day trip to Palm Springs around that time.  If we are firm on the date I'll start working on it.

Thanks GD....keep me in mind please. I really do not compete much any more, but the comradery would be nice. I haven't a boat load of cash however, so my golfing outings are a bit sparse. Also, I do not have an official handicap; however I do log scores on my home made spreadsheet so that I know what my handicap would be.

Our outings are very laid-back and NON-competitive, and a handicap is not needed.  We do compete foursome against foursome if we have enough people to make it interesting, and @mvmac might get some golf company to kick in a cool prize here or there for the winning team, but its mostly just about having fun and meeting new people. :beer:

sounds good. I should be available depending on the exact location/time. Not sure where Coachella Valley is, but can look it up once I get the address.

just looked it up. Very familiar area, just could not connect the name. I used to ride all over the place in my motorcycle (CA 371 through Anza). Cut across from Borrego Springs to Palm Desert.  Us old bikers, didn't pay much attention to destination, but more or less just "point and shoot" utrilizing the old "Fukawi" mantra.  As in "Where da fuk a wi"

Bumping after a few weeks of inactivity.  Have we figured out any specifics other than March 6 being the date?

I'm doing pretty good, man.  Finally feeling (mostly) healthy, and have been playing a lot of golf after skipping out on most of last year.  Thanks for asking!  I might look to join you guys the next time you get something organized.

Stay tuned.  Also, keep practicing so you'll be ready for Newport Cup 2017!!!

I had a chance to check out that thread, very cool.  Glad to see everybody followed through to make that happen.  

I've been practicing a lot lately and starting to see some results (I shot sub-80 for the first time in 2+ years recently).  Maybe by 2017 I'll be in the single digits, finally :-).

    • Day 50: 1/30/2025 Back home again, today. Got to do some full speed swings hitting balls into the garage net.
    • Something just popped into my head, based on your mention of the folks who "know the rules" but are generally wrong.  Another comment I read was "the Rules ALWAYS said.....".  When I come across those I often go to  www.ruleshistory.com to see if the rules ever said that.  You can find every (almost?) version of the rules since the first set in 1744.  Its fun to return to the conversation and say "You're a little bit right, the rules said that at one time, but that changed in 1984.  You've been playing under the wrong rule for 40 years!"  
    • Hi, checking back in to see if any St. Louis area golfers get together for a round or three during the year.  I have recently dropped my membership in a local league this year to work on my game and meet other people.  I would love to hear from anyone that would be interested in meeting for a round in the St. Louis area.   Rick
