Any thoughts on where we'd like to play?

How about the morning of the 28th. I'm open to wherever. @jsgolfer has to pick his wife up at the airport at 5PM.

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.

What does everyone think about Orange National? @jsgolfer @dave s @jetsknicks1

Still wondering if @David in FL is interested in joining in.

I'd love to join you, but I'm the only one manning the office for the 2 weeks after Christmas.  I would definitely be in for something in Tampa later in the year!

That would work, as long as we can tee off around 9 am so that we get done and i don't have to take off right after for the airport.  And I will have my dad with me as well.

I suppose everyone knows, but just a warning, that won't be an inexpensive round, the week after Cristmas, especially for non-Orange County residents.  Higher yet for non-Florida residents.  They'll also get a credit card number and any no shows will be charged.

Let me know if you guys prefer a different course. I am waiting for a firm number before booking.

My Dad and I are good with whatever anyone else wants to go.  Looks like $89 for out-of-state residents and $69 for in-state residents (My Dad is an Orange County resident too), or at least that's what I can see for the 27th, so I'm thinking it will be the same price for the 28th.  So the price is fine for us.

But if that is too pricey, I liked North Shore Golf Course, it was reasonably priced and near the airport. Falcon's Fire was OK and is cheaper than OCN as well.  Anyone play the new layout at Shingle Creek?  Looks like a similiar price to OCN though.

But my Dad and I will play anywhere.  Just tell me where to show up and we're there.

I'm good with those options too. I know that @jetsknicks1 has over an hour drive to get down this way. Thoughts?

I personally like Falcon's fire but I haven't played it in a long time, I also like Eagle Creek. I prefer not to spend a ton of cash, just because I'm leaving the next day for New York but I'll go along with whatever the majority decides. :-)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
