Minnesota wrx's?

[ladahl]

Walked 18 at Southern Hills (Farmington) and it was an absolute BLAST to be back outside playing golf!

[NRJyzr]

Got my first round in yesterday, wearing shorts and short sleeves. It was rather lovely, I must say.

 

Too bad my golf game wasn't as lovely. Who knew that going +4 on the par 5 holes was not conducive to low scoring? LOL

[ladahl]

Was a great day down here as well. Everyone has the " fever"

[Joe85]

Okay weather today, okay weather tomorrow. Sure hope I can get out tomorrow before the snow comes back. :(

[Al.J]

Played 3 days in shorts in March already. Crooked Creek, Bull Rush, and Cedar Creek. Still going to be a few weeks before anything up north is open. Played Riverwood National today. I made it 10 days before I had to play again. The itch is strong.

I've heard rumblings that Grand View Golf Links(9 hole) in Duluth, might be opening soon. Do you play up on the Range often? I grew up, up there but never golfed much except at Virginia, and maybe the Eveleth course.

Still snow on the ground here in Duluth and the ground is pretty soft. We had a inch of rain last week followed by about 6 inches of snow. Supposed to get another inch tomorrow I believe. I'm dying to get the new clubs out just not worth it yet.

I play Virginia all the time in the summer. Since retiring end of June last year I play almost every day there. I also play the North Lakes League that travels across NW Wisconsin and NE Mn on Mondays. Spring and fall I make lots of trips to the cities to play with a few fellow Wrxers. The cities guys are lucky they get a good extra month of golf on each end of the season compared to up here.

[NRJyzr]

Al, congrats on retiring!

I admit to a certain amount of jealousy. LOL

Al Make sure to let me know next time your in town. Heading to Scottsdale 4/4

[Joe85]

This snowfall was funny. I got 1-2 inches in St. Paul here and my girlfriend just about 5 miles south of me got like 6-7.

[NRJyzr]

I'm in Maple Grove, we got zero. Go figure

[ladahl]

We got plenty

[finleysg]

I've been at Bunker Hills for the past three seasons, and one of the things I love about the course is how quickly it dries out. Apparently it's located on a huge aquifer and the challenge is to pump enough water because it just gets sucked back down.

 

Have 3 rounds in already in March, with the fairways playing fast (and brown) and the greens firm. This weekend is looking pretty dicey, though.

[meaks17]

Shakopee here looking for golf partners, usually play Stonebrooke, The Wilds, Chaska TC and Meadows at Mystic Lake (in that order). Prefer walking, average score is 85 and I'm 29; please PM me if interested in playing together!

Hi guys!

 

Anyone played a good round yet? Struggling to find my groove

[YoungJedi]

72 my first round of the year at Thumper Pond

[Joe85]

Hi guys!

Heck no. Been butchering my swing.

[Al.J]

Played better in March than April so far

[NRJyzr]

Last week, shot even par on the front nine, only to go +10 on the back. So, not so much on this front...

[jbw749]

So I've been a member here for 5 years and just found out this section of the forum existed. Pretty cool to see the MN wrxers!

I'm a member at Tanners Brook and play weekday mornings if anyone is interested let me know.

[jbw749]

Is anyone trying to qualify for the am or mid-am at Gross or oak marsh and want to play some practice rounds?

Also playing in the Twin Cities Championship if anyone wants to play bunker or Keller would be fun let me know.

[CollegeGolfer21]

Anyone playing in the City Tour events put on by Nextgengolf this summer? The first event is on May 15th and was wondering if anyone is playing.

 

Thanks!

This is interesting. I would be down to give it a shot. Do you know much about it?

Are you going to try to qualify for the match play and state am? I see Oak Marsh on the the list for the match play and Gross is a site for the am. I would bet you'll have a pretty competitive field at Gross.

 

I have one more day to decide if I want to blow $80 to qualify for the match play (senior div - just turned 55). I've played with enough of these guys to know I have no chance in the actual event, but would still like to qualify and play at least one match. Probably will end up at Brookview.

Yes trying to qualify for both. It's my second year playing tournament golf, I know I can shoot low enough scores, but am also in it for the experience. It really gives all the practice a purpose. If I don't qualify I will work on my weaknesses. I'm sure the scores will be very low at gross.

Cool. Good luck. Tournament golf is great fun, and a great measuring stick for your own game.

I am hoping to try for the state open.

 

It would be great to get some sunny weather soon.

[takingitdeep]

Anyone know of a great professional for lessons with putting? I hit the ball so freaking good to shoot the scores that I do.

Andy Thompson at Totally Driven is an Aimpoint Express trainer. Highly recommended.
