I know there are a few of us from Washington or nearby.  It seems everywhere else has done some type of meet up.  Is there any interest in trying to get together this summer for a round?  A few options regardless of price: The Home Course (South Seattle), Chambers Bay (South Seattle), Wine Valley (Spokane), Loomis/Semiahmoo (North Bellingham), Eaglemont (where I work :-D, South Bellingham).  Lots of others.  I can try talking to private facilities, but that may be pushing the limit, unless one of you are at a facility that can accommodate us.

I'd certainly be interested -- I live in Edmonds and have been a member of the North Bellingham club for a few years just b/c I have some buddies that play up there (and north sound golf south of B'ham generally sucks).

Anywhere is good with me

Where do you typically play?  I used to play North Bellingham a lot when I lived in Bham, but I'll get there maybe a dozen times a year now.  It's one of my favorites in the Bham area, except when it's a windier day then it's no fun. haha!

I'm just across the border in BC, but I'd be interested as well. I've played some great courses in WA, including some of the ones mentioned.

I'll be in Seattle on June 11, 2017 and available to play on this date as part of my 50 state capital trip. 


I am in the Portland area and would be up to drive to Chambers Bay for a round. It's on my list to play this year.

June 11th is not available for me, but if others are good with that date, I can still try to help set it up if need be.

Boy, Chambers Bay in the summer would be fun but it gets quite pricey.  I may be able to get us a decent price but it's still high.  I'm good with that if others are, though.  

Are there any other courses people would like to try and play? And what months/days are people open to?

Hello.  I live in Spokane and I there is at least one other member from this area.  It doesn't seem like a NW meet-up has materialized but I'd be interested in one.  I'm a member at the Kalispel Country Club in Spokane if anyone is out this way and would like to get together.  It's the former Spokane Country Club which was founded in 1898 but was bought by the Kalispel Tribe out of bankruptcy last year.  Great course if you're in the area. 

Also, everyone here seems to want to play Gamble Sands... Wine Valley is in Walla Walla not Spokane.

    • I agree. I would have thought it would save them shipping costs. I will say, I don't really mind. I'm guessing the labor cost to remove the head and repack it is greater than the difference in shipping costs. I'm guessing Callaway has a deal with UPS because the shipping label they sent me only showed a cost of like 8 bucks and change. Feels like it would have costed me more to ship it.  When the guy I spoke to told me they were sending me a complete driver and I could choose to keep my old shaft or keep the new one, I was actually kind of excited. It was like a little driver shaft lottery. ... I didn't win though. The shaft I got was almost the same as the one I had just the R version instead of the S version. Mine's a 60 gram Hzrdus Black.  The other thing I kind of liked about it is that they shipped it the same day I talked to the guy. So it was fast.  Lastly, I'm pretty sure the guy I talked to was in California, and the driver definitely shipped to me out of Texas. That's also where I sent it back to.  So, overall, really I have no complaints.
