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 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.

      Yes, but you don't live in the UK, so you have no idea what we think about it here. It's a very different mindset here, to demonstrate the fact you should consider 9 out of 10 games we play here are Stableford, whereas you you almost solely play medal. Neither is right or wrong, it's just different  I'm trying to avoid swearing here. Once again, and for the 1000th time, I understand the system, I just don't agree with it. Is there anything wrong with that? PS, I do not have the time or patience to post my results, especially as they prove nothing  That's because 99% of the posters are Yanks
