I also think that San Clemente muni is a nice summer choice.

Lets pencil Saturday 08/19 in the morning. San C!emente does not take tee times until 7 days before, so the earliest we can secure a tee time for the 19th is the 12th. I will PM on the 10th to make sure you are still on. 

 

Sounds like a plan. Saturday 8/19

Not sure if  @Hategolf is referring to potential scores, or the weather after reading @Shindig response.

He meant one and I meant the other.  It's a reference to a line attributed to Bob Hope, "I always shoot in the 80s.  If it's any hotter, I won't play."

@Hategolf -- not sure who you PM'd, but if you're okay with it, I could tag the people that have been part of previous So Cal meetups.

I pmd you and @Hacker Jamesonly, since I do not recall anyone else expressing interest. But if there are other folks willing to join by all means, we can work it out. 

My reference was score related but I got the joke.

@Hacker James, I'm glad your daughter is willing to join.

 


Maybe this becomes the TST So Cal end of summer meetup?  This was my tag set when I tried to organize one last year.  Not sure why the second and third aren't looking like the others in the interface.  Hopefully they see this.

I'll play if you have room.  San Clemente is about 1 hour 15 minutes away from where I live and is in my range, that is on the upper end of as far as I want to travel for a day golf trip.

If I get a vote, I prefer early morning.

I'm now out.  I just found out from my wife we have something scheduled that afternoon.  I won't be able to make the round and the commute and get back for that obligation.  Sorry.

I see you guys talking about San Clemente and I'm thinking isn't that Orange County?

 

I believe it is. Just North of San Onofre right off I-5.  Probably a drive of 1 1/2 hrs for you.

Yes.  I tend to think of San Clemente as south Orange County, but I'm coming from north of it, not south of it.

looks like we are back to a foursome again. Maybe some of the area big guns will check in soon.

That's the problem with Southern Calif. for meetups, it's always been a long drive for me for any of the locations.  That and Torrey is inexpensive and only about a 10 minute drive for me.  Let's do a Torrey Pines meetup ;-)

Yeah, if I had that option, I'm not sure I'd ever go anywhere else either.  A friend of mine found out, many years ago, that I was applying to teach at UC San Diego, and advised me not to do so.  He told me I'd probably not do very well there professionally because of the Torrey option.

@gregsandiego  So....Greg...are you going to join us?  I hope so.

I can play from any set of tees, but am not to proud to move up to the silvers as that's where my game truly belongs.

    • One thing I've noticed with Mini Drivers is that the manufacturers seem like they keep their quantities somewhat limited.  The last two TaylorMade Mini's and the Callaway AI Smoke Mini were sold out quickly. 
    • Huh? That's the niche of these mini-drivers. They can still work off the tee and off the fairway. They're designed for and work for both things, which is all that blurb says. You can see from the photos that it's a bit of a deeper face, which I find is more important off the tee than the fairway.
    • This statement doesn't make much sense to me.  So, I think the push and pull between a 3-wood meant for off the turf versus off the tee is how tall the face is on the 3-wood. I do not get how this mini driver would be good off the turf, or at least get the height needed to stop the ball as a normal 3-wood meant for off the ground. Maybe they care more about hitting the 3-wood off the tee versus off the turf. Nearly every strike would be low on the clubface relative to the CG location.  I would take that statement as more as marketing over what you would actually expect the club to perform.   
    • No, not that Minnie Driver. This one: It's a mini driver from Titleist, available for Tour validation/testing starting this week at Kapalua. It's available in righty and lefty and is only in 13° models for now. GT280 is a direct result of Titleist’s collaboration with PGA TOUR players on the development and testing of the TSR 2W prototype, which debuted on TOUR at last year’s PLAYERS Championship. With many players seeking an additional option at the top end of their setup, Titleist tour reps and R&D engineers worked with players such as Cameron Young and Will Zalatoris to dial in a 13-degree head that worked as a go-to club off the tee and off the deck. Now on Tour: New Titleist GT280 The arrival of the 2025 PGA TOUR season this week in Maui brings with it an addition to Titleist’s breakthrough line of GT metalwoods: the new Titleist GT280.
