El_Pibe_De_Oro

Ended up playing Maplegate. Course was in decent shape. Greens were okay, not great.

Thanks for the feedback, Lacassem. That's too bad. One of my favorite courses.

Has anyone played Blackstone National this year? I read some 2020 reviews noting very poor conditions. Haven't played it in a while and was thinking about playing. Would appreciate anyone sharing recent experiences.

George Wright, a city of Boston course that was designed by Donald Ross. A really fun, old-school layout with many blind tee shots. I remember it having maintenance issues in the 90s and early 2000s, but I played it a few years ago and it was in good shape.

Played it for first time in November of last year and enjoyed it very much. Course was in great shape, especially the greens. Will definitely go back.

Thanks, Lacassem. I'll have to check out Wentworth.

How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? I started playing in 1996 at the dawn of the Tiger era. Tiger was a big reason I started playing golf. I haven't kept a USGA handicap in a long time. My unofficial handicap is 10.2. What do you love about golf? I have moved a lot and usually go out to the course as a single. I love that golf gives me the opportunity to meet new people all the time. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? I was listening to a podcast that mentioned MyGolfSpy product reviews and decided to check it out. I don't know any other spies, but would love to meet some spies out on the course. Where are you from? What is your home course? I recently moved back to the Greater Boston area and am in Wrentham for the time being. Have played Maplegate a bunch since I've been back. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The worst is the short season. The best are the beautiful natural settings of the courses in MA. What do you do for a living? I'm a patent lawyer. How’d you pick your user name? I was born in Argentina and "el pibe de oro" was a nickname for the great Argentine soccer player, Maradona, who died last year.
