hey everyone, I live in Baltimore. Don't play much especially now as Maryland is 1/5 states to close their golf courses.
1. I played when I was younger but picked it back up about 5 years ago, and currently score in the 90's
2. I love drinking a few beers with friends on the course while trying to improve my game.
3. I've been getting email for about a year and decided to check it out.
4. I usually play the 5 Baltimore city courses.
5. Not being able to play year round definitely sucks.
6.I am in Project management for a Mid Atlantic General Contractor.
7. Something I've always used.

Clubhouse was completed last year.  The food is good!  🙂    You are welcome to join me as my guest, just let me know!  

Ah nice, tnhey were laying the footers for it when we were there.   Seemed like the last touch to create a first class facility.   
I'll definitely let you know if I get down that way again this year. 

Great!  I look forward to it.  I enjoy getting to play with new folks who enjoy the game.

Hi! Most of my friends call me Mike, some are a bit more crative.  I've been playing golf for over 55 years, and it's alsways fun in the final view. I wittled my first "Golf Club" out of an old hickory sapling , keeping one of the limbs for the shaft. As a kid I was totally enamored with Arnold Palmer, and loved watching him til the day he died.. My scores arfe usually in the 70's, and my handicap ranges from 5 to 9 through the season, and is usually within a point of 8 this time of year (May).  Golf is the most relaxing thing I do, as it gives me a cxhance to spend some quality time with some of my closest friends. While I don't currently know any other "Golf Spys", I really look forward to sharing thoughts on the game and equipment with some new "friends". I play most of my golf here in central Virginia at Greene Hills Club in Stanardsvillle. "Tis a great little course that offers plenty of challenge.The best thing about our region here in Central VA is the variety of courses, and we get to play about 10 months out of the year on average... the worst thing is that some of the courses are either Totally Private or Over-priced (for me) and only afford me a few plays a year.  I think way too much about it when the cost gets over a buck a swing!  Yeah, I'm a bit of a tight wad. While my wife says I am a golf equipment junky with way too many clubs (she's probably right), I also enjoy my times fishing and hunting and working in my wood and golf shop. The wife says i have way too many hobbies (Probably right again). Probably had something to do with my wide variety of projects in the Civil and Architectural Engineering profession.  Most of my friends don't mind, as I often show up with some sort of nbew gift or gizmo to show off.  While I am bigger than almost all of them they like calling me "Mikie"... the source of my User Name.  Have been away from the course for almost a year now due to major back injury a couple of years back and major surgery in Feb20, and am really looking forward to getting back on the grass as soon as my surgeon gives me the "OK". I have Calllaway Apex19 irons and Taylormade M4 woods... Wedges are Callaway ... companioned with a 52" long Oddesy Dart putter (that all of my buds razz me about)... especially when they are paying! Whatever works, I say...

I’m Chad, live in Central PA.  Been golfing now for 30 of my 33 years on earth and have started really falling in love with the game again.  I guess it helps when you buy a house on a course!

Hi,
  I've been playing golf for about 15 years now. It happened by accident as I never thought I would be this addicted to the game. Not to mention waste a Saturday and Sunday afternoon watching some one else play the game. Now it is all I want to do with my free time.
What I love about golf is the rollercoater of emotions it puts you through as you can easily go from king of the course to course jester in the time at it takes walk from one green to the next tee box. You always have to stay focused as it is never mastered.   I have also met many new people on the course who have become of course friends as well. No nicer group of strangers than fellow golfers
  I am from Buffalo NY and spend a lot of time at Cazenovia Golf Course  and Hyde Park Golf Club in Niagara Falls. I also get out to about a dozen different courses throughout the summer. I always enjoy playing a new course for the first time
  The weather in this area makes for a short season for most, but me and a friend have found ourselves out there looking for balls in the snow more than once.
 Being an over the road truck driver limits the time s I have to play so getting out any chance I am home is greatly appreciated. I do carry a set of clubs in my truck and have played at many out of my home area courses on many occasions.
 my user name comes from back before I ever thought of golfing and owned my own rig which was a purple International Eagle.
