Yep.  Playing in Wooster, OH Saturday night at a festival of some sort.  Easy show, 90 minute set and we're done early.  Only side effect will be saying 'what' a lot on Sunday due to ringing in my ears!

That's ok as long as you don't go "HEY, CAN YOU MOVE YOUR MARK ONE TO THE LEFT?" and I'm only 6 feet from you.. :-P

Has anyone booked any of the rooms?   I will need to cancel by Thursday to make sure I don't get charged.  

@Rob Thompson

I called the hotel to do this. They told me that they have been put on hold and all we have to do is show up and they will use our credit cards for the payments. You might want to call and confirm what their policy actually is because what you are saying is contrary to what I was told on the phone.

I booked a separate room for @georgep and myself. I didn't want to take one of the blocked rooms. See @saevel25's message above, though, to be sure you aren't charged for unused rooms (or used rooms, instead of the occupants being charged :-D).

That may just be for the rooms reserved. If there are unused rooms Rob shouldn't be billed.

Updated list, and I added a 17th spot because - ideally - if we can get 16 players, then two nice things happen:

  • George will get to play for a prize (otherwise he's stuck with me and wouldn't be eligible to win prizes except MVP).
  • I can drive around and spend time with ALL players, which I'd really like to do.

I've updated my handicap to "NC" for "non-competing," added @voodoo, and added @macdaddy18's handicap index.

If you know of someone who can attend, even if they are not a member, please send me a PM ASAP. Two spots are open.

  1. @iacas Both (NC)
  2. @Jeremie Boop Both (17.3)
  3. @mcanadiens Both (21.4)

We will probably play the Gold/Black tees, which at Eagle Creek are 70.8/125 and 6419 yards.

Here's an (outdated) image of the scorecard (I got the ratings from NCRDB, and they're different than these):

Isn't @Rob Thompson playing? Name not on the list.

No. He's trying out for the military golf team that weekend.

I'd have scheduled it a different weekend, but my college team takes up all of September.

So...we should probably post here who is planning on staying in which rooms, so that @Rob Thompson knows how many rooms to cancel and how many to keep by Thursday.
 
FWIW, I'll be staying at a Hilton property close by since I'm a ***** for travel points.

Sorry about being dense on the hotel thing.

Should I call the Quality Inn and let them know I'm with the TST group and I'm coming or do I just show up and pay?

Just show up and pay according to those who have called. But no harm in making a 2 min call either for your peace of mind.

Looking forward to seeing everybody Saturday... :-)

    • Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.  
    • I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄 
    • The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.
    • Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
    • Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
