I am in for sure. Unless I get stabbed in the neck.

Btw every time I see "Reps and Traj" under Fore_life's name I laugh on the inside.

[Olson12]

Alright. Well just let me know. I will ask for Friday off just in case but if we wanted to do Sat Sun that would be fine too.

[fore_life]

I'd like to get our plans firmed up by right around the first of the month,otherwise I might take a solo trip if nothing pans out

Mark that sounds good. I did want to play prescott CC even though it's not crazy fancy.

Rholio I sent you a PM about where were staying.

[fore_life]

Prescott cc is fun. I only really remember the first hole, we played it after a night of HeAVY drinking and I drove it first swing of the day haha


I'm really down for whatever though

[Skydiver22]

Looks like I'm out for this trip, have fun. I was up in Flag over the weekend 70's during the day and 50's at night.... perfect

[teejaywhy]

Headed up to Prescott this weekend. Will be able to advise conditions on Antelope Hills as we will be playing both the South and the North courses.

Tom, how was it, bet the greens were fast on the north?

On a side note i will be in Showlow this weekend 10/5-7 so if anyone is up that way drop me a line and I will set up some golf, planning on playing Silvercreek on sat. afternoon and playing Bison sun. morn.

Antelope Hills - Prescott AZ

Side note: Any trip to Prescott is not complete without a stop for breakfast at the Blue Hills Cafe in Prescott Valley. Huge portions and stupidly low prices.

Saturday's round at the South course was a slop fest. I don't know if it is the time of year but every year it seems this way. No bounce, no roll out, better hit the green cause anything short will plug. As it was, we reached a back up by the 5th hole and for the remainder of the front 9 there were two groups waiting on every tee. Apparently a girls high school tournament was ahead and playing at a 5.5 hour pace. The management rerouted us to play the back nine of the North Course.

Saturday nite was a fun time. We only got kicked out of one bar.

Sunday round at the North Course. Good shape overall, soft but not sloppy like the South. Greens were soft and a bit spongy, taking HUGE pitch marks on any incoming shot. Fast as usual, coupled with the predominate back to front pitch, made for some testy putts. I always enjoy playing here.

[teejaywhy]

If there is still any interest in a Prescott trip, I just got an email - with the OB sports card, you can get a foursome rate at Talking Rock for $200. (normally $75 a head).

I haven't played it but have heard good things. It would be heads above Stoned Ridge or Prescott CC.

[fore_life]

We're still going and have one open spot as of now, anyone have an ob card?

[Olson12]

We are getting close to booking tee times and have room for 1 more. Does anyone want to come along?

[One_Putt_Blunder]

Mark I am officially out. Too soon for full rounds. Still have quite a bit of work to do before I am ready for a full mid iron swing let alone driver

[jzona]

What is the itinerary so far, i am trying to see if I can squeeze this in, need to leave for vegas sunday morn so i might be able to do friday and leave after rounds on sat.

We are playing Antelope hills south Sat morning and the North course Sat afternoon. Should be <$60 total for both rounds.

[teejaywhy]

Would like to go but have a prior engagement. Should be fun.

[fore_life]

Trip was a great time, thanks again to Blake and Ryan.

I think we all enjoyed the south course more than the north, just seemed like more variety in the holes, thoug the pace was awesome at both courses, as we finished each round in under 4 hours as a 4some on a Saturday.

Stoneridge was interesting haha. Good shape, but the greens are brutal, no 9 can kiss my a** lol, and every par 3 played dead into the wind, which at 240+, is not cool.
Lots downwind tee shots were nice to feed our collective ego's, and I made the best birdie of my life haha.

We have to do it again!

[natural_one]

sounds fun! we should do a meet this fall/winter. Didnt you guys do one once? Kind of a like a range session followed by 18?

Yeah for sure, we've actually had several wrx outings, which is pretty much range/18/then lunch/drinks.

The tee shot from the tips on #9 was the most demanding tee shot I have ever seen in my life.

That was a blast. gotta get the photos off my phone.
