I'd love to go to Florida in February. It can't happen. I'm in tax-season jail at that point.

Soonest I might be able to do anything would be May.

Might just be a reason to do another one in May. That just got me to thinking, we will be on a cruise from 2-5 till 2-12  

@CarlSpackler you wanna play in an ugly shirt gathering in May in Tampa?

I would be interested in this if you put together. @colin007 and I were semi serious about an ugly Hawaiian (or tropical) shirt golf outing down this way. Might be wrong but I think there was interest from @Jeremie Boop and @mcanadiensMaybe we should do it. 

My game is so horrible right now I will need the time to get better just to shoot under 110!  Budget season has put a strain on my time and I can barely hit the ball but will do my best to get a few lessons and some practice in before. 

Not THOSE 2 characters. :-P

I think we definitely need to make it happen.

It doesn't take a lot of arm twisting to get me on a golf course. ;-)

As much as I'd like to commit to that, I'll be moving soon and not sure the funds will be there for a trip out of town that soon after. I'll keep an eye out and inform you guys if anything changes. It's an easy drive to Florida and maybe I'll be able to convince my fiance that it's a good get away for us :-P. That probably won't work, but she's going to Texas during Christmas to visit her family so it's possible I can leverage that to my advantage.

It's the same woman I was with for years, we just reconciled our differences. We've come to an agreement on the whole golf thing too, I get to do 3 or 4 outings a year and I can golf like 3 times a week. I did my negotiations prior to deciding to get back together :-) :beer:

So here is what I'm thinking. We can start 1 or 2 other threads for specific outings with a general time of year and location and do like @iacas has done for Erie, PA outings were people tag themselves if they are interested in attending. I'll start one for Orlando in late Feb / early March if you, @Gator Hazard, want to start one for may in the Tampa area. Sound like a plan?

I haven't met them yet IRL so I'll trust your judgement and if you say we ditch them at the airport or give them the wrong course I am okay with that!

:-D

I was thinking the last time we were kicking idea around that if we ever do one in Tampa I could probably put some people up at my place if they are crazy enough to want to stay. I have never done a real golf iuting yet but have to imagine with travel and food and beverage plus lodging and fees it has to get expensive fast.

Yeah, my wife has a great uncle down in Orlando, so it all depends on if she wants to see him. :beer:

I am off that week but will be watching the kiddos and on call for work as other manager is off. Should be slow that week  however. I gotta be honest, my game has not sucked this bad since I started. I went back to work at old company and have been mired in budget season and a merger. However, even if I only caddy I may make it up just to meet some fellow TST members.  Keep me posted.
