re: Copper Mill

I like Copper, but they are just taking advantage of supply and demand, and I can’t fault them for that. South LA is a public golf wasteland.

Why? What they have should have no bearing on what you need in retirement.
No doubt. But seeing those numbers compared to mine at least would provide an apples to apples comparison.
Telling me the average person has $87k and the average boomer has $200k is misleading. Because, again, 50% of society are basically worthless people with no job/drive/ambition.

Reading this makes me feel silly for being so paranoid that I won’t have enough for retirement one day. I’m clearly ahead of the game.
You might be ahead of the game, but I hope you aren’t coming to that conclusion by comparing what you have to the paltry numbers posted in the OP.
We must all remember: 50% of society are essentially worthless. I don’t need them included in any comp numbers to try to determine how I am doing.
Let me see median numbers of minimum college educated professionals with STEM degrees.

I don’t believe it’s televised. Just been refreshing every 10-15 minutes. They lost first hole but now 1up thru 7.
Louisiana boys in U.S. Am 4 Ball Finals this afternoon
Posted by PhiTiger1764 on 5/20/26 at 3:48 pm
Former Southeastern golf teammates Grady Brame Jr. and Lawrence Allan just won their semifinal match on the 22nd hole. Finals coming up probably in an hour or so.
This is a national USGA event with ~2500 entrants. Winners get a spot in the U.S. Am among other things.
Can track scoring below.

This is a phenomenal leaderboard. Wish every tournament was “set up” like this.

They’ve removed a couple of tennis courts for the driving range/short game expansion. I heard they are putting up a net too which is great and will keep balls off #2 fairway.
Looking forward to the reno. Ironically greens are in best shape I have seen them in like 10 years. Current conditions are not sustainable though and the reno is sorely needed.

I understand exactly what the data is. But these threads always go the same way.. a bunch of highly educated, successful people talking about how they are above the average or median. As if that means anything when those numbers are so terrible.

I use my lowest bounce wedge on tight lies inside 100 yards which is my 56°.
You want to reduce bounce on tight lies. I’ll also play it a little back in my stance to add forward press and reduce bounce.
