Yea good luck getting in contact with them if you ever need to update anything. It’s a nightmare as they don’t answer the phone.

Don’t sleep on morehouse country club. Should add it to the list. Pretty good course there. Not BDCC nice, but generally better than the other public courses around.
Tier 1- Scottie and Ludvig
Tier 2- Cam Smith and Min Woo
Tier 3- Aaron Rai and
Tier 4- Justin Hastings
So what is removing wind/hail going to save you? 1k a year ?

On a par 5 I play regularly and can never get par. I was 270 out over water and a tree. Small peninsula green. Had already doubled 1 and bogey on 2 I didn’t care. Hit it to about 3 feet and made the eagle putt. Will always remember that shot. 3wood absolutely flew that day.

Ecco biom have been great for me
Not true. Just needs to be calibrated. Only difference most of the time is the etching in the glass.
Dam- I just got a 7prc! Should have waited
If they want cheaper insurance Arkansas would be the state to do it in.

If I could take away 2-4 swings every round, I would shoot at or under par every round. Its so damn frustrating to be so close.


Man I feel that as a 9.5 handicap. It’s a few terrible swings that lead to a triple or double every round that just get me out of the groove. I can put 37-38 up on a side plenty of times I just can’t finish. Last week I went 36 front 46 back then the next day went 37-44.

On both of those rounds it was a bad swing or two that put me out of it.
What are you paying annually and have you shopped it ? If the difference is significant could you just save that money by not having a claim for 2 years ? Not saying you should switch it but should at least evaluate your options.
Have been to saba 3 times. I got the fish there the last time and it was terrible. Have had one good experience and two at saba. Not going back

re: Your 2024 Golfing Stats

Posted by IcedOutBart on 9/16/24 at 2:54 pm
52 rounds
High 94
Low 79
Average 87

10.1 HC

Low 9.1

I have better shots than years past I just can’t put it all together. Feel like I’m playing better in 2024 but had better HC in 23.
I usually stay at the Phoenician and play there at least one round. Love the course.

Troon north is tough getting off the tee for me but always solid. Prefer monument over pinnacle.

WeKoPa is always awesome. Saguaro is my go to.

Grayhawk Raptor course is my favorite in the area.

Tpc not worth it unless bleachers are up.

Wickenburg Ranch and Quintero are great.

If you know any elites- Scottsdale Natl is a must play.

Here is the list of contenders: Golf Club at Fossil Creek Waterchase Golf Club Texas Star Texas Rangers Golf Club


Have played all of those courses. It has been 2+ years since I have played any of them but Waterchase. It seems like it will be somewhat out of the way for you but it is a hidden gem somewhat. Last time I played it was $55 and in phenomenal conditions with a quick round. The others were good but can’t speak on them as of late.
I love the MaxFli tour at the price point. The 48 balls for $110 is a steal. Normally play proV1x but with that going on I can’t pass it up.

The North LA golf trip is nice.

You could play BDCC in Monroe, Squire in Choudrant, mystic creek in eldorado, and then pop over to Shreveport for Southern trace or east ridge. If you can get on those it’s a nice trip.
