We have a great layout and solid conditions everywhere else but always lacked quality in the greens. I'm looking forward to having a total top notch experience going forward. What grass does well up there out of curiosity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours had become bumpy with a bunch of poa having established itself all over so we ended up with two types of grasses growing at different speeds over the last 10 years. We finally bit the bullet and did the investment. We had to close a couple weeks early last year and now open very late but I think it will be worth it. We have two other courses at our other site plus a nine on our site so we've had a place to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Omega Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Quote Thomas, who rallied from a 7-shot deficit in the final round at Southern Hills Country Club to win his second major championship, was asked if he would follow Saban's 24-hour celebration rule. "Yeah, I got a 24-hour rule," Thomas told Sirius XM. "I'm not sure what Jimbo Fisher's rule is, but I guess he's gotta win something first before he figures out his rules." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hputenis Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 On another note, I shot an 84 today on an actual golf course and didn't putt well, which I usually do. I shot an 80 once on a joke course (1 par 5), and it was very short. Today was at Red Bridge in Locust, NC and it's not an easy course. I didn't even bring my iron covers @Agent23. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrPhilly Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Heading out now. Two rounds in Myrtle are my only rounds so far since October. Just pulled my sticks out of the basement and up into their spot for the season. Going to be a tough one no doubt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPhilly Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 So I managed to get around all right. My "old man" game is starting to come together. I struck the ball horribly but I moved it forward and made some putts and even chipped in once (for bogey). I managed to scrape just under 90 at an 89. I'm thinking I should be playing mid 80s this year so that ain't bad for my first time out since October (save the two rounds in Myrtle with my buddy's 2nd set).

There's a possibility I might play Thursday or Friday with my wife's brother, who is traveling down from Carolina Beach on Thursday. This family has a lot of women in it though, so my fingers are crossed. 😂 The only course I've ever played in Myrtle (despite being there ALL the time) was Waterway Hills a few times, the one with the ski lift that takes you to the 1st tee.
