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. :-)

I've been wanting to play Eagle Creek. It's very close to the airport and to Kissimee where @dave s will be. If you're ok with the commute @jetsknicks1, let's plan on that.

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

I think we've switched to Eagle Creek, but we're getting together somewhere. It would be awesome if you can make it.

Looks like we are going to Eagle Creek, which is near the airport (as I have to pick up my wife), but would be great if you could come up and play.

Also, for anyone interested, I will also be playing several of the other days that week as well.  i'll have 3 on those days, as my wife is an avid golfer as well.

Current Plan is to play:

Mystic Dunes & Timacuan (Thursday and Friday, my Dad bought some vouchers) and then we have 4 for Saturday at the Golden Bear Club at Keene's Point, but I think I can make a second tee time if anyone is interested in that course (which is very nice).  Might even play Sunday as well.  Depends how golfed out we are.  :whistle:

I can do a second tee time at the Golden Bear Club at Keene's Point if anyone interested in playing on that Saturday.  Not sure the cost, let me know as I will make a tee time here over the next couple of days.

I'll have to pass unfortunately. I got the stink eye from my wife for the one outing since my daughter is in town.

Lol. The stink eye pops up from time to time, doesn't it?

I'm curious whether any of the guys playing have played together before?

    • 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. 
    • 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.)
    • 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.
