Need a 4th for next Saturday in Kalamazoo, MI or Sunday in Jackson

odshot68 · September 14, 2010

We are playing next Saturday the 25th at Yarrow (36 holes) or 18 there and 18 at Angel's Crossing (if they don't aerate their greens). One of our buddies backed out and there is an opening. Looking for another to join 3 other WRX's for a good day of 36 holes of golf. Let me know. Thanks.

I'll let you know how the Grande is looking -- playing there on Sunday morning.

I like it -- I usually play there 2-4 times per year. It's not going to blow you away with the conditioning or anything, but it's a fun course -- very scoreable, because it's pretty wide open off the tee. The second hole can be tough -- uphill 220 yard par 3 from the tips, and it usually plays into the wind.

You guys should be pretty pleased with the Grande -- it's in pretty good shape, and the greens are rolling nicely. The 9th fairway seems to have gotten messed up by that fungus that has invaded some courses because of the extreme heat this summer, and some of the fairways have been punched, but it's playing pretty well. Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for me...

what does that mean tiger...78 on a bad day? By the way, do we want to play the tips at calderone and the grande? none of us have played either track. We are stoked about this weekend.

84 -- exactly zero up & downs on the day.

Calderone, you'll be able to easily handle from the tips. Grande has a few forced carries and a couple of par-4s that can be pretty tough from the back. I think you could handle it, but if we get any more significant rain this week, you might want to move up a set, because it can play pretty long if you're not getting any roll.

just played one of our clubs yesterday 7000 yards from tips..no roll. Hit a few hybrids into par 4s..tough day. How far is from the tips at the grande and calderone?

Calderone is about 7000, but it doesn't seem to play that long. There's only one really long par 4 that I can think of, but a couple of the par 5s are pretty long.

Grande is 7157 from the tips and 6838 from the set in front of that.
