Head is still in the clouds a little after shooting my first sub 70 round yesterday.

Congrats Preeway!  That is an awesome accomplishment to break 70.  My lowest score ever is a 70, so my dream is to someday earn that new banner.

Thanks. I had a 71 (+) last year but was a day I couldn’t get about to fall. I thought for sure I’d always be the bridesmaid and never the bride.

Next time you could send him a selfie toasting him with an egg and sausage biscuit, saying, “Thanks for the checkup, Doc. See ya next year!”

@jbern Full disclosure, I love McDonald’s breakfast. It’s a guilty pleasure of mine.

Same here! I'm a sucker for the sausage, egg & cheese Mcmuffin with a hashbrown and a large coffee. The app saved me $2, so it was a good stop! haha

My 70 came a few years ago and since then I have had a couple of 71's.  At the end of those 71 rounds, I would look back to see where I could have possibly saved a couple of strokes to get to the dreamed of 69.  I turn 65 in August, so maybe I will have a better shot at breaking 70 from the senior tees. 

Are you planning on returning to Lake of the Ozarks for golf this year?

Yes. I will get in at least one round down there. Looking to play the same course again and possibly take in a new one if possible. Any suggestions?

Played Kinderhook twice last year and have played Bear Creek Valley a number of times. Kinderhook was great and wouldn’t mind playing again at all.

Old Kinderhook is a favorite and Bear Creek Valley is such a hidden gem.  Across Hwy 54 from Old Kinderhook is Lake Valley which is a nice course.  It has 6 each of par 3's, par 4's and par 5's.  East of Camdenton is another fairly hidden course called Deere Chase which is probably less expensive than some of the others.  Margaritaville (old Marriot Tan-Tar-A) has a course called The Oaks which is very hilly.  Lodge of the Four Seasons has 2 courses similar to The Oaks.  Osage National has 3 nine hole courses and designed by Arnold Palmer.  North of Camdenton to Laurie you have Indian Rock.  I have played all of these courses but it has been several years for some of them.  Probably the best thing would be to look at the individual websites.

Good morning MGSpies from a cool but soon to be hot for this northern unacclimatized WNYer in NC, heading to SC for the day on destination 2 of this Spring Break road trip with my son.  Yesterday had a "first round of the season" experience at Stryker GC at Fort Liberty in Fayetteville NC under beautiful Carolina blue skies that was only just under triple digits, not sure how that is going to work for us Josh @Josh Parker but hoping golf is again on the day's agenda in northern SC, and hope golf is a part of your day too! ⛳

All good!  Just enjoy the rounds!
