You got it, I'll be wearing it in three(3) weeks then :)
 
Practice is underway for the year now that the weather is steady. 3 bogey, 1 birdie 74 today. 2 3-putts hurt me, and an approach that went 15 yards long which short-sided me gave me the 3rd bogey. It's just tough when I"m only getting one birdie when I'm like 115 out half the time though.

any of you guys can make it?

Had my best round ever at Brook-Lea today, managed to get around in 92. Loving those Bricgestone J-15s.

The only course in that area that I played, I played with Jim, and that was Green Lakes State Park--and it was fantastic. Just make sure Jim has an extra belt in the cart.
 
Check out timber banks, Jack nicklaus design, should still be in early season rates

Belt? I don't need no stinkin' belt
 
Well I traded in a couple of old iron sets and picked up a new Callaway XR driver and matching 4 wood. Net cost about $200.

Of course I went right out to Brook-Lea for 9 holes and didn't miss a fairway. I wasn't keeping score but it would have been real close to a PB if I had.

Amazing what a difference technology can make.

glad you are plyaing well with the new sticks Jim!
 
Playing Arrowhead GC in Akron, NY this weekend with Ben(darkhelmet18). Don't think I've played here since I played with Jimmy and shot possibly my best round ever (80). Gonna play a little team high-low against a couple other regulars. Hope the weather forecast gets better.

A little damp, but the course was in nice shape. Shot 92. Left a lot of strokes out there.

I will be in Saratoga Springs the weekend after the Cure event and will be looking to go out for a round with my father in law, either Saturday, Sunday or Monday.

Based on location alone, I was thinking between Van Patten, Saratoga Lake or Saratoga Spa golf. do you locals have insight to help chosing the course?

We also have two open spots, let me know if you guys want to join us, it will most likely be an early morning round
 
I'm attending a wedding this Friday in Athens/Scotia, NY. Anyone have course suggestions in that area? Ideally, I need to find a place that has a decent locker room with showers, etc. Thanks in advance for your help.

The Lake is my home course, greens are OK right now, some tee boxes need some work. It's tighter than the other too, so if you are crooked off the tee, bring lots of balls.

Spa course is in really good shape, it's flat, kind of open. Nothing spectacular, but a good layout.

Van Patten, just not my favorite, and slightly over priced when you add in a cart. Huge greens which are normally in good shape.

I'd take a look at Fairways of Halfmoon too if I were you. Early season, but probably the best conditioned of the ones listed.
