I can play 7200 yards, but its not as much fun as 6400. Doesn't matter to me Ill go wherever the majority likes to play from. Hitting 9 iron into Par 4's is a lot more fun than 4 iron.

Cool. Is a course in Deltona like that which I play when visiting in laws. They are fun (if harder than golf already is for me-fair warning :-P) and a good change of pace. Spoke with the keeper of the schedule and she says can't do anything until after Easter. Sorry, but definitely interested in getting together if can.

What ever happened to the Hawaiian shirt invitational?

Side note: I just applied for a new rental house in the Mt. Dora area.

I got bogged down in an extended budget season. Can definitely still put one together. Will have to restart the thread and see if any interest and for when. 

I am not familiar,  is that east of Orlando?

I usually like Black Bear but the last time I played it, the conditions were pretty bad.

Par for the course there.  Of the 4 courses mentioned, that one is my least favorite by far.

Of course, right now, pretty much everyone is struggling with the severe lack of rain. :-( 

One of these days, we'll get 4 of us together and play at my club.  2 courses.  @CarlSpackler Played one, maybe we'll do the other, when we can all make it happen.

I played Black Bear a couple years ago and it was in awful shape.  Decent layout though.

I can probably do it, but let's wait on the course.  Right now cobitions are really tough and I'll keep an eye on what's going on at various courses.  Don't want to play a dog track when there may be better options....

We have plenty of time to actually book.

      My Favorite Putts

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.

      Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.

      Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice.
