NorCal Crew hangout thread

I’m up in Tahoe so it’s a bit of a hike but let me double check schedules for Jan 3rd. Having a chance to tee it up with @Joshnoble01 is too good to pass up…
i may actually have to bail actually @PV_Premier. I’ll know in the next day or two. Wife might be planing a last minute trip for new years.

Love to tee it up with you again @Stemmy66. I’ll try and put something together for us.
 
Great sounds like we have:

In - @PV_Premier and @RVS1970
Pending/Tentative - @Stemmy66 and @Joshnoble01

Anyone else interested do feel free to post/reach out especially if the tentatives can't make it.

I'll need to get final confirmation from everyone by 12/31 as Yocha Dehe requires 48 hour cancelation notice and they have my credit card info :)

I’ll let you know before then. I should know by Christmas Eve.
 
I have so many great memories of Creekside golf course. Breaking 100, breaking 90 and finally breaking 80. When I first started golf, ego ruined my golf game because I swung 100% every time because I could hit the ball a long ways but only hit 20% of the fairways. Holes 6 & 7 were my nemesis holes. Holes 6 I was either OB or in the impossible to find a ball in the overgrown hilly grass on the right and hole 7 must have donated 100’s of balls left because I just couldn’t hit a fade or a straight ball.

This year after a 15 year break my buddies and I returned to play it once again and got a little revenge, I shot a 43/39. Was surprised to find out that the trees have started to mature. Picture below shows my nemesis hole #7. I usually hit a draw and it just doesn’t work for this hole. Picture below shows the narrow opening 😳View attachment 9316254
I like that hole much better from the whites lol.
 
Creekside has always been nicer than Dryden, especially back in the day with the tallow plant across the river. Those were some stinky rounds for sure!
Oh man, I remember the tallow plant. 🤮

I played a lot of rounds at Creekside back in the late 90's when my parents lived down there. I think it was $5 twilight rate, so we went there all the time.

One last comment on Creekside was my other demon hole on that course was that par 3 12th hole! I can’t tell you how many times I hit 18-36 inches off the green left and rolled OB. Even on my round this year I was nervous on the tee box. PTSD 🙂

@RVS1970 — it seems like it might be just us, I also checked with the usual guys in my foursome as well, who also aren’t available.

Did you want to go for it, or bag it?

You’re also welcome to invite others!

yes thats a tough hole especially if you draw the ball. I always aim right of the green and try and get over that bunker on the right. that way I eliminate the high number on that hole lol.

I'm still in.

I'll check with some others today and let you know if anyone else can join us.
 
@PV_Premier I have one co-worker that can join us on the 3rd. What's the rate that day? Do we pay you or at the course?
It’s $129 and you all can pay at course day of. If I can’t drum up a 4th I’ll trim the tee time back to a 3-some then unless I hear from you with another addition!
 
@PV_Premier any chance there’s still an opening? Plans changed and I’ll be back Thursday night. Would love to take the spot if it’s still available.

I think there is one slot left, @RVS1970 - you just have yourself plus one right?

Ok. If it’s still open I’ll take it. Always a great time playing with THPers. If it’s taken next time.
 
@Joshnoble01 @RVS1970 — any hesitation about the forecast for Friday? Looks showery. I’ll need to cancel by end of day today if we happen to decide it isn’t suitable.
