Any of you Michigan golfers ever played Forest Dunes or The Loop?  I've heard good things. And recently found out that one my best friends is very close with the owner there. So been thinking of taking a golf trip up there. 

I haven't personally but there is a link here somewhere about the course.

It was great to meet everyone that participated.   I had a great time even though I didn't play well.   The course was great, the new friends were great, the golf.... Now let's discuss the weathe

It was great meeting everyone and a lot of fun. I got to see @MSchott hit almost every fairway and @Braivohole one out from 60 yards with his last shot of the day. @bkuehn1952, I'm not sure who t

Had a great time with the TST Michigan gang on Friday at College Fields. Tough track but fair as the fairways are generously wide. Lets do it again guys!

I played Forest Dunes about 3 years after it opened.  Very nice course but at $154 then I thought it was over priced.  Before I go back there I would play both the Dream and Nightmare in West Branch.  I see the rates are more reasonable now.  @dmay_golf, if you can get a good deal then it would be worth playing there.

 

@JonMA1 @dennyjones, any course you two would like to play is fine by me, and Tuesday that week is good for me also.

 @tlazzol, @dennyjones,  what do you guys thinks about this course? I'm going to tentatively plan on playing Tuesday, September 5th sometime in the morning. It doesn't have to be this course.

Anyone is welcome to join me. If interested, just post to this thread. I'm open to suggestions as far as where.

@tlazzol, @dennyjones I made a tee time for 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept 5. For now, it's 3 riding 18 holes. It's not a big deal for others to join or if anyone cancels. He said he'e appreciate a call if we cancel. Obviously, anyone else interested in playing will have to call the course.

The Fall rates apply ($25 per person). They have a driving range.

Edit: Kind of important....

In that case, we're in trouble. Ask @tlazzol about my track record on providing good weather.

I live in Mason, south of Lansing.  Retired and don't mind driving up to 3 hours to play.  If I'm able to play next year we can get together.  But looking at your index I don't think we'll be playing the same tees.

Ann Arbor here and looking for new people to play with.

@criley4way, @Braivo, @dennyjonesI would also be interested in getting together.  I played Eagle Crest last December.  Like to see it in warmer conditions!  Any day but Tuesdays.

@Tlazzol and @Bravio I have a group that plays at 6pm on Thursdays. We are doing Stonebridge and Lake Forest but always open to play on weekend. You are welcome to join us any time. Just give me a few days.

It looks like the weather will break soon.   I think we'll have to wait until the courses dry but I'm game to play.   I'm free almost any day.  @bkuehn1952's home course of Leslie Park in A2  is very nice but I'm game for almost any course within a decent drive from my house.

      Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry

      You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.
