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.

I have talked with @Gator Hazard about trips the family makes to Sarasota/Bradenton area to see wife's family, but we haven't made the trek from DC in a couple years. Possibly 2017 tho! Rumblings of a spring break jaunt for a couple weeks but we shall see. 

I used to live north of the airport on Semoran Blvd (road someone mentioned recently in this thread) when I was stationed at a Naval Training Center in early 90s. Facility gone now tho but always have good memories of Orlando.

I like it here so far. I live off Semoran at University close to Full Sail University. Funny thing is. I lived in Reston, VA back in the mid to late 90s.

I am getting close to posting a meet up probably in April. Could do late March, will have to see what works best for everyone's schedules. Let me know when you may be heading and I'll try and set up for then. It's ugly Caribbean island and Hawaiian shirt outing. Maybe we can do Caribbean shirts vs Hawaiian.

Golden Bear Club is the Best Course we played while we have been here.  Conditions were great, weather couldn't have been better.  Staff were great, all in all a great way to end the year playing golf.  On to a better year in 2017!

I'll be in Orlando for 2 straight weeks at the end of Feb/first of Mar.  Will have a few "down" days between meetings so I'm hooking up with some buddies out of Tampa to play 72 holes over two days.  Last year we hit up Championsgate, Celebration CC, Orange Lakes and Bella Colina.  All were awesome except Orange Lakes.  Not sure where we are playing this year just yet.

Added bonus is that I will wrap up work around 2-3 PM every day so I'll be out on some course knocking around the ball.  Should get in 6-8 rounds plus a scramble that my company puts on over at the Waldorf Astoria course.

      2025 NFL Draft

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I have to confess. I figured somebody would grab Sanders in the second round. He isn't perfect by any stretch, but so often NFL teams reach for quarterbacks.  I only saw one Colorado Game last year and I watched it in a restaurant/pub/bar place. I have to say I thought Sanders was good. He looked accurate and his O-line was terrible. ... I mean really terrible. Kid was running for his life the second he got the ball in his hands. My thought is that quarterbacks who play behind bad O-lines in college sometimes may make better pros. They get used to having to make quick decisions, and throwing the ball with guys in their face.  A lot of folks are saying his slide is because of his dad. I'm not sure if that's true or not true. I've also heard that next year's crop of QB's is supposed to be really good, so teams feel like "Hey, let's wait until next year."

      2025 NFL Draft

      By saevel25 ·

      I would put money on Will having a better NFL career than Sanders. Mostly because he is a fast processor and his mental game and leadership is top notch. I think that translates better.
