I'm visiting family in Portsmouth VA next week, was hoping for a recommendation on a course to go to, or if anyone wanted to play. I'll be trying to play sometime 2/17-2/19

@colin007, we have some ok courses. I would suggest Riverfront out in Suffolk. Not too far from Portsmouth and one of my top 3 in the area. 

I am traveling this weekend but will be around next weekend. PM me your itinerary if interested and we can figure something out if family stuff works out for me. Always enjoy meeting TST friends.

Also, a little disclaimer - It may not matter greatly to you but it is winter golf at this time of the year. Hope you are not expecting green fairways..😊

Just following up, @GolfLug is a great golfing companion, he graciously took me to a course in Portsmouth called Elizabeth Manor and we brought the course to its shaking and trembling knees with our overpowering length, our precision like accuracy, and our laser like putting.

LOL!

Honestly this was the most fun I have had in 40 degree weather! BTW, you shooting 83 with borrowed clubs on a course you had never seen before, without much practice is pretty impressive in my book. You are a much better ball striker than your 'lol' profile handicap might suggest to some..😊

Thanks bro...I had a great time too! So glad we beat the rain. I think I'm only good enough to know how much I suck LOL!!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 66: Played 18! Wasn't really keeping track of score, but guessing in the low 80s. Driving okay, iron play up and down, lagging putting really bad. Overall, it was good to get out and play.

      Day 41 - 2026-01-30 More backswing and grip work on the mat / net. Also some mirror time focused on trail weight.

      Day 12 (30 Jan 26) -  Had hoped the men’s group would be playing, but the cold temps and delayed opening kept them at bay. Spent some time on the range working on loading the trail foot on the backswing (focusing on loading the inner portion of the foot and collapsing the knee slightly toward the ball). Learned too much really brought on a left pull.  Easing back a bit, really helped compressing the ball and overall accuracy.  Took it to the course for a practice round, focusing on this small change.  Saw better dispersion across the bag….guess this will be part of the mirror work drills as snowpacolypse 2 hits eastern NC.

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
