Forgot to snap some photos, but Pumpkin was playing great. Greens are said to be rolling at a 13 and I believe them.

 

Nice. I do not live far from Pumpkin and need to get out there soon.

I played Witch at Pumpkin on Saturday and the greens were running as fast as I have ever played....13+ on stimp....

 

The course is in great shape.

The course is in great shape.

They're getting ready for the Oregon Amateur Championship on the 19th.

 

Playing Witch tomorrow, can't wait to experience the greens.

Does anyone know how far out Langdon books tee times on their site? Trying to look for times for the second weekend of July when I'll be in town. I tried looking but it seems scattered even with a week out. I'd assume this course gets a lot of play and not every day is available? TIA.

Two weeks out, I believe.  Langdon Farms does a lot of outside tournaments this time of year, so don't be surprised to see days within the two week window with no tee time availability.

Thank you!

Played Rose City yesterday and the course was in really nice shape.  Greens were a bit slow, but otherwise quite nice.  Rough was recently mown and still fairly thick and chewy from the spring growth period.  Really glad we can start to get out and enjoy the munis now.

Been playing nice. Greens slower than heron and east moreland bit overall better than its been in a long time.

Right now.

Played langdon today for the first time in a long while. Despite light showers all round and the windy sideways downpour on 8 and 9, it played really well. Always a top draining course. well worth the rate on a day like this. Well done to the crew!

 

back to the portland park munis tomorrow.
