I'm trying to setup a golf trip to Scotland
MGoBlue100 replied to dogleg_left's topic in Golf Courses & Travel
Jack at Halcyon is the ONLY person I would trust to plan my Scotland trip, especially as you are planning a little bit late in the schedule, and teetimes may be very difficult to obtain. Ask @GolfSpy Barbajo or several others here who know Halcyon: they are the BEST. -
I have always had excellent luck on Callaway Pre-Owned. I’ve bought a LOT of stuff there and always been pleased.

Date 03/09/2023 Course Name North Shore Golf Club Gross Score 97 Course Handicap 10 Gross Strokes over/under par 25 Net Score to Par 15 Net Score 87 Net Birdies or better 2 Longest Drive 253 Eagled the first (Par 4; driver to 2-1/2 feet). Sort of downhill from there. Little worn out on the back nine.

You could stay around Columbia or even Greenville, SC. Drive would be a bit long, but Greenville is a great town. Better golf options too if you’re looking to play.

LIV is trying to be a global tour, too. They obviously know that the majority of eyes watching golf are in the USA, but they want to have tournaments in other locations. Stinks for us trying to watch live golf from Vietnam, etc but it is what it is. Don't disagree however that some unique Scottish courses, etc that can't handle a big PGAT or DPT event would be fantastic to see with a smaller field (LIV) event.

I think he's changed his mind set a good bit from being a "fishing frat boy'. Won The Players, won The Open and damn near won The Masters. Pretty big loss for the PGA Tour.
-
?? I don't understand this comment. Plenty of the LIV venues (Pumpkin Ridge, Mayakoba, Valderrama, Greenbrier, all the Trump courses) are better than what the PGA Tour plays week in and week out. It's not Riviera every week for sure.

Rick Shiels was less impressed, for what it's worth...

@GolfSpy Barbajotold me it was cool and I'd like it. Eight and a half years later, so far so good...

Date 02/09/2023 Course Name Rio Pinar Country Club Gross Score 86 Course Handicap 12 Gross Strokes over/under par 14 Net Score to Par 2 Net Score 74 Net Birdies or better 6 Longest Drive 272 Won’t win any trophies, but not too disappointed as I had barely swung a club since November. Played 18 with one Maxfli Tour. That’s usually a good sign.

2022 Season Courses - How many did you play?
MGoBlue100 replied to GolfSpy_APH's topic in Golf Courses & Travel
Pilgrim’s is a great track. I grew up around Grand Rapids and was lucky enough to play there a couple times. Tons of good golf in that area. -
2022 Season Courses - How many did you play?

Well, Stadium Course counts the same as 50 other courses based on greens fees + caddie fees alone. Awesome that you checked that off your list! -
Premier League--Metric Football/Soccer Thread
MGoBlue100 replied to JohnSmalls's topic in The 19th Hole
Both of my boys played futbol, despite my trying to keep them involved in baseball (talk about SLOW, Dad...) Anyway, both of them played very high level club and my youngest played at the D1 level in college. Once they were really interested, I knew I had to have a club to support. I didn't really want to become a Man U fan, because it's (to me) like being a NY Yankees fan if you're from Ohio. Too easy. So, long story getting longer, I met a gent in an airport bar on one of my many work travels. We began to chat, he was/is from England, and so I asked him which club HE supported. "Everton" was the reply. After I asked what an Everton was, he told me that they are an original member of the Premier League and based in Liverpool. And so, ever since that day I have been a Toffee! It was great fun when Landon Donovan and Tim Howard roamed the pitch at Goodison Park. Unfortunately pretty dark days currently, they might be headed for relegation. -
Two rules: Have fun & don't lose a club. If I do those, everything else seems to fall into place. If I crunched numbers as hard as some of y'all do I'd be in an asylum.
