I just got my Hopkins wedges in the mail and I'm itching to play already. I guess I'll get some range work in tomorrow and see if I can't find a game on Saturday.
 
Anyone want to golf Sunday morning out in the Northwest burbs? I generally like to tee-off between 6 and 6:30am. Already have another guy so looking for 1 or 2 more. FYI I'm not great and my buddy sucks, but we usually get through 18 in just around 4 hours (usually a little quicker)
 
Not sure if I posted this already but Plum Tree National is closed.

golf course ownership seems to bring out the worst in a lot of people. I've definitely had my share of sad client stories

People get greedy and ridiculous all the time when people die. It's disgusting really.

I might be down for some Saturday golf. Let me know what course you're thinking and what time.
 
I was fit for my driver by Mike at the downtown location... It was a great experience.
 
JRod said:
Yah hopefully the Woodfield one is just as good. I avoid downtown at all costs.

I don't think there is a Woodfield location, Willowbrook and Northfield are the other two. I could be wrong, just don't want you to plan incorrectly. I am possible for golf sat depending on time and location.

Yah you're right. I went to willowfield because it's on my side of Chicago.
 
Thanks Byron, I meant Willowbrook. Typo.

How are the conditions at Marquette? I haven't golfed there in a few years, and I'll have to make a trip down there.
 
Actually they're great Cap. I played my first round there a couple of days ago. All the greens were in great shape, everything mowed perfectly. I can say only one fairway was a little under par, but because of yard tool tracks. I don't know if CPD put a memo out but they've been better than usual lately.
