I'll be going to Nashville in July for a conference, any TST'ers in the area have recommendations for courses to play.  I see the Hermitage Golf Course has two courses which look very nice.  Any others I should seek out?

Surprisingly, I have never played any Nashville courses and I live fairly close. I have played Montgomery Bell. but it's further west than Nashville. I would say any course in the Franklin area will be beautiful as that's where a lot of the money resides. Murfreesboro has Stones River where Rob McGill is a 5sk Instructor. I have been on the range there but never had the chance to play the course. It looked great though. I've also heard that Two Rivers course is nice.

I used to live just South of Nashville and really miss the area.

If you can get on The Governors Club in Brentwood..that's a nice track...lots of celebrity homes along it and not too far from the city.

further south

Champions Run (Mufreeboro area)-- Nice track, home of MTSU golf.  Hot in July though... 

Very reasonable greens fees but a little bit of a drive from downtown.

Can I get an update? How did it go? What courses did you play? Did you survive?

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
