Where in OC is this? I would love to try and hit balls into a boat. 🙂

Looks like they had the good sense to pull down the yardage signs @ SA. 

This was Brookside, but SA was similarly flooded. They never take down the signs, you just can’t see them when they’re submerged 😂

That’s the Islands Driving Range on Ball Road in Anaheim, right next to the East side of the 57 freeway.

Hi Everyone,

 

We’re planning on Diamond Bar this Sunday morning at 8:40, anyone want to make a 4th?

@tehuti, @Chasing_Bogeys And myself are three with @Shindig doing volunteer work at the LA Open.

Please let us know if you want to join, or we might get stuck in a 5-some 🥺

@Lihu, @Chasing_Bogeys, @Shindig Hey guys. It’s not looking too good weather wise for Sunday. Do we need to cancel, or wait it out?

 

If you folks bail, I’ll go up into the mountains to ski and board 😁

But, yeah, it looks like rain on Sunday...

My kid turned up sick today so I logged on to cancel.

Hey @Shindig, might be able to jump on the course for a short 9 at or after lunch. Let me know if you’re free?

I actually got in 18 this morning at Willowick in Santa Ana before the weather got ugly.

Nice!

Anyone want to try this up coming weekend? Weather should be okay?

I've never played Willowick - how is that course? Is it walkable?

I'm going to try to play on Saturday afternoon. Hoping to get a tee time around 1pm. Not sure if I'm going to play DeBell (Burbank) or Brookside or Hansen Dam. I'm taking kids for a hike in the morning and not sure when we'll be back so not sure when I'll get out. I can text you guys Saturday when I have a plan if you want?

I can't play on Sunday.

Willowick is okay. Not the best maintained course, but it is challenging, walkable and not too expensive. It’s my unofficial “home” course for 2019 through the SCGA. I want an official handicap this year to meadure my progress.

thanks for the willowick quick review. 🙂 "Walkable and not expensive" - sounds like my kinda place!

Good luck on Sunday. One of these weekends we'll get us all out as a 4some. When the weather starts to cooperate it will be easier to plan.

Saturday afternoon works for me as well at Brookside.

Have any of you played the Navy course in Cypress? I haven’t been there since the 90s, but it was a nice track back then. It is open to the public now.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
