Not a member, but I play these courses often.They are definitely two of my favourites: http://www.redwoods-golf.com/ http://sandpipergolfclub.com/golf/pr...pipergolfclub/

23 degree baffler DSW. Right in my wheelhouse. Tend to pull a bit if anything, not block or slice.

Thanks, I'll check 'em out ...good talkin at ya, Nanaimo. She who must be obeyed says we're leaving now -- dancing (ouch). later... nibel

Yeah, Redwoods is one of my favourite courses for sure. BTW I have a G5 driver but like most of us I'm constantly in 'the search'. How do you like the Rapture?

The courses I play most often nearby are: Fort Langley, Redwoods, Belmont, Sandpiper, Homestead (Lyndon, WA). Don't belong to a club as I don't want to get tied down ...like to roam about and discover new courses. I head out on two different golf 'tours' each summer for a three day trip: one we head down into WA state, the other somwhere new each year. This year we're doin' Whistler. How about you? Never played Nanaimo area, just Victoria e.g. The Bear, Olympic, Arbutus, I hear there's some beauties over your way. My group was thinking of coming over in a year or two (to Nanaimo). BTW, if you ever get over my way let me know -- if you don't know your way around, I'll make sure you're looked after..

Scool teacher? Sorry, just had to do it...as I'm a teacher myself

Seven years ago, my first game on a regulation course. Got there early so I could familarize myself. I'm looking for the putting green and a guy on the patio yells "it's right in front of you, dude!". It was the 18th green. To hear the rest of this true story, I need to get to know you better...

Hello Nanaimo Yeah, it's been a brutal winter range-wise. Normally I'm hitting balls right thru but not this year. Tomorrow's the day though I see you're a Ping man. I bought Rapture irons including wedges last year and love 'em! Especially the shafts. Like my G5 driver as well but will test-drive the G10 soon. My Rapture 3 wood... can't hit it worth a darn. keep it in the short stuff, GoGolfing

Depends, of course, on the area you visit. The list below is by no means comprehensive, but it will get you started. I've played them and they're all must-plays IMO, but I've bolded my favourites. Okanagon near Kelowna: The Bear, Gallagar's Canyon, Predator Ridge South Okanagon: Fairview Mtn Shuswap Lakes area: Salmon Arm , Hyde Mtn Kamloops: Rivershore, Dunes Whistler: Big Sky, Nickalaus North Lower Mainland (Vancouver area): Redwoods, Northlands , Fraserview Harrison Springs: Sandpiper Victoria (Vanc Island): Olympic View, The Bear Keep in touch...any other info I can help you with let me know

Hello, new member here from beautiful BC. I've only been golfing 6 years but like many I am totally obsessed with the game. I carry a 23 cap and struggle to break 90...but my claim to fame is a hole in one my first year. Scuffed the ball all around the course but lucked out with a 120 yard 7 iron from an elevated tee in the pouring rain. My buddy was showing me the ropes..he's been golfing 35 years and never had a sniff. Just goes to show how crazy this game is. Anyway, looking forward to hearing some of your stories, tips, and club reviews. nibel

Not sure how to catorgorize -- I've had boxer briefs tattoed on my body. Don't have to change each morning, saves a bit on the old washer/dryer. Lot's of weird looks changing at the pool etc..but I've got big shoulders. I can handle it. There, then. My third newbie post. Aren't you glad I joined this board?

New member (almost) here. Best movie? There Will Be Blood Daniel Day-Lewis is off the charts. Best performance by an actor as far back as I can remember -- and trust me I go way, way, back. there...got my second post in

Another high school teacher here -- Economics, Accounting, that sort of thing. Haven't tried the board at work yet, I'll give it a try tomorrow. later nibel
