Well, we can do all three dates to give opportunity to as many players as possible.  We've talked about July 8th (Sunday), 19th (Thursday) and the 28th (Saturday).  Changing the 28th to the 29th so Denny can play is good with me.  How about Leslie Park on the 8th, Royal Scot or MSU east on the 19th and Huntmore or Whispering Pines on the 28th/29th?  @bkuehn1952, I can help you with calling and setting tees times if you like.

I am good with changing from July 28th to Sunday July 29th.  So @dennyjones and @criley4way are on board.  @David L Yskes could be good for both days (7/19 and maybe 7/29).

@tlazzol, can you take the lead with setting up 7/8/2018?  I am out of town and can't play.  Leslie is a good choice. @Braivo was interested in AA on 7/8.

When we have a rough estimate for July 19th and July 29th, we can get together and set-up the tee times.  I think Whispering Pines may be $20 for 18 with a cart during the week.  Not sure about Huntmore but the cost is likely close to that.  Neither course is walkable.  Not familiar with Royal Scot.  MSU-East is a decent course and can be walked..

@bkuehn1952, I can do July 8th.  Talked my wife into leaving Traverse on the 7th after her half marathon run.

@bkuehn1952 is handling July 19th and 29th. I think 9-10am is the time frame he originally said.  I'm handling this Sunday, the 8th, but only you and @criley4way have responded.  Which date do you prefer?

@tlazzol, where are you guys playing?  I may be able.

Thinking Leslie Park, Eagle Crest or Washtenaw Country club. Actually, I think I'll try to make a tee time at any one of them for this coming Sunday for four players.

 

Bumping myself to be notified of replies.

@dennyjones @David L Yskes @criley4way I have reserved a tee time at Leslie Parks at 9:44am this coming Sunday, July 8th. Let me know if you will be able to make it.

Sorry we missed you @criley4way

I asked the moderators to close the other thread to help eliminate miscommunication.

Let's close this thread and just use the one in the Michigan Club.   We had an unfortunate incident with miscommunication today.    Eliminating this thread and only using the Michigan Club will help correct the situation.   Michigan Club Outings - July

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
