2021 Tony-fest, Part Deux (Catawba Island Club, Make-up Date 9/19/21)

Recommended Posts

Starting this thread as a placeholder for whatever we plan this year. I thought it would make it easier for some of the newer people to find. Tentatively looking at:

1) Northstar in N. Columbus (May-ish)? @Mr_Theoo to take the lead?

2) CIC Part 2 if @tony@CIC is willing to host us again?

3) Something Akron/Cleveland-ish?

Anything else?

I'm ready for CIC V2, any recommendations for when? June, July, August? 

Edit: there are a bunch of Ohio newbies that have signed onto MGS since last year = we should try and reach out to them as well.

Big in on this. Looking forward to a jam packed golf summer and getting back out again with you guys.  I picked up the Bunker Hill March-April membership so I have only played there so far and can't wait to branch out.

Ok so I also have a ton of vacation to use before the end of May. Does anyone have weekdays free or vacation to use? I can look for good weather and set some stuff up, I'm willing to travel around the area.

Of course, I can probably give a few days, that's mostly because we won't know if we're gonna have nice weather a week in advance. Is there a day that's usually good?

Can generally get away for a morning or afternoon round. Prefer any day but Tuesday since that's league night.

Not really, I just need to see if anyone else is off that day since we have been reduced by 2 people in our department.

Newbies are always welcome. We'll probably do Catawba Island Club sometime between late Jume and early August.

Definitely sounding like something between Columbus and Cleveland is the way to go for one of these outings. Mohican Hills, Hawk's Nest, Deer Ridge, etc.

@MattF, @Mr_Theoo, my friend Mike, and I played there a couple summers ago. It was garbage! The layout seemed pretty nice but the course conditions were a joke. Have you played there recently?

I’ve got a group golfer from Ashland CC.  I’m looking forward to playing it.  I enjoy playing different golf courses and I’m definitely willing to drive somewhere and play.    A few years ago about 30 guys from GolfWrx played 3 outings around Ohio in the summer. It was fun. If something got set up I’d probably be able to round up a few guys that would also be interested in playing

Oh wow, I didn't get that at all from Mohican. Played it twice last year, once at the end of September and it seemed like it was in fine shape for a muni course.  Greens always really fast and smooth. I played with a guy who told me they were sold back in 2018, so maybe it took them a year or two to get it back in good shape.  The distance from my house is all that stops me from playing it once a week. 

A beautiful manicured country club it is not. There are definitely some burned out spots, but I thought it was a really cool and challenging routings with great greens.

Agreed on this @MaxEntropy. Mohican Hills and Hawk's Nest have both gone down hill a lot over the past 10 years and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone anymore other than just a normal course that's nothing special. Can't speak on Dear Ridge though as I haven't played it in a long time.

This is wild, I honestly think those two courses are great and in my top ten in the area for both quality and value, Hawks Nest especially.  Maybe I have much lower standards, but I think I have played a very diverse realm of courses to know what really nice (Portage CC, Oberlin GC) and really bad (Pine Brook, Mallard) are.

Maybe we caught Mohican at a bad time? As I recall, it was early September after a hot summer and many of the greens were burned out and had crusty bare spots. Plenty of places in the fairways had gone native, too. I'm not super picky either - I've played Raccoon Hill enough to know it is mostly a goat track, but I still play it and have fun.

Right there is lots of hot garbage on the westside of Cleveland. I thought Mohican Hills was a state park, so I'm not sure how it was sold. And I grew up 10 minutes from Punderson, another state park, and that course was always in very nice shape. Hawk's Nest was good shape and a really fun layout, but it's been about 3 years.

God do I hate that stupid course. They left all this open area in the middle as they're dumb af happy grass then cram 3 or 4 holes into a corner of the property where there should be one
