My flights are booked.

Fly into JAX late Thursday night and fly out of Jax at 8:30pm Sunday night.

Staying at the airport Hyatt

I'm renting a car and driving down Friday.

This is similar to what I did last year and it worked out pretty well.
 
Fly into JAX. It was a nice drive down and seemed to be the best experience from what I recall last year. Yall are in for a treat!

If Daytona is not an option for people, I definitely recommend JAX as the next best airport for this event.

JAX is easy in and out and less than an hour and a half drive to the resort.

If you're waiting on other folks to arrive, Sam Snead's tavern is just outside security so you can grab your bags and head back to wait.

You take 95 down from JAX or take the scenic route down A1A?
 
JAX is probably the better option, but MCO is going to have super cheap flights for those and hey you could extend the trip and see Mickey.

JAX was cheaper for me as well
 
I'm going to have the fam fly in post-event and stay in Orlando for a few days. Not sure but may travel real early Friday and drive in from MCO.
 
Highly recommend leaving the irons at home and playing a round Friday driver/wood only. Was a nice ice breaking round last year where the only goal was having fun

Crazy part was we all somehow managed to score half way decent.

I hated that someone beat me and my full set of clubs with only drivers and hybrids and wedges. Sad. Day.

Yeah, that was wild, shows how much managing the course plays into a round hahaha

Sounds like a personal problem! Ha

Trust me, it was. But you have to tell me how the +12 golfer is doing.

Who is a +12? That's a helluva golfer... if you mean me, my cap is down around a 9 :wink:

I shot a sweet 84 I think without the irons so I think that’s the score to beat

I mean.... it’s ok Gary. My driver hybrid game that weekend was pretty legit haha.

Oh oh I guess Alex didn’t do too bad

I shot in the 80s, but I lost Bingo Bango Bongo

That was the killer...

Also hey you 78 on the Ocean Course

Yep but not your fault you got hussled haha.

no doubt your 78 the first day was damn impressive. But yet somehow you still chose last while I went first.....

Going to be spending Thursday night in JAX too. Hoping I can call a spot in the car for the ride down Friday?

Also flying in Thursday night. Dibs on spot 3? Haha. Are we trying to split hotel room as well? If so, count me in.
