It's getting down to crunch time to play with the stalwart PNW MGS crew in our annual outing.  I need to have commitments by the end of next week.  After that, the tee times that we don't use will be turned back to the courses.

Players committed so far for the outing June 23-26:

Kenny B and Martha  (all days)
@Thin2win    (all days)
@fixyurdivot  (all days)
@gavinski91  (June 23-25) and brother (June 23 only)

Again, the courses are:

June 23   Apple Tree GC in Yakima
June 24   Canyon Lakes GC in Kennewick
June 25   Wine Valley GC in Walla Walla
June 26   Wildhorse GC in Pendleton OR

If I have missed anyone, or if someone wishes to play on any or all days, please let me know ASAP.

We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.”

Actually "roasting hot" would be Phoenix.  Orlando is more like "steaming hot".  😂... I would rather go to Phoenix (and have in June/July); not that much different than here.

Its not the recovery from Covid that I'm worried about. Its the recovery not working for an un-planned week off and not being able to get stuff done that has been on the back burner all spring due to other commitments.

My game has matured and become less aggressive - I haven't had an eagle attempt in 9 months. We'll see if the big stick is behaving though - I'll do what the people want!

Have you played much central/ eastern Washington golf? There are some great tracks.  Gamble Sands. Wine valley,  Palouse Ridge, Circling Raven,  Suncadia and Desert Canyon are the big names,  but a number of good fun courses.

Gamble Sands is top of the list for courses I want to play. 
Suncadia is incredibly beautiful though. This is the view from the 10th tee.

Bear Mountain is a conundrum for me.  It's has some of the best golf holes I've played,  and some of the absolute worst. But it does do views really well.
