MN WRX at The Jewel Saturday, May 18 (latest updates on first page)

[whysguy]

I wonder if the ski resorts will open back up?
I could take my boy boarding for his 16th tomorrow, kinda had thought golf earlier this year.

[ladahl]

I'll be playing oak summit in Rochester around 2:00 on Saturday snow or no snow....

[DaBigSaus]

Shoot. Me. Now.

[linkerpan]

Playing 36 in TCI tomorrow.
I live very close to Eagle Valley GC, so if anyone wants carpool to The Jewel. So, I am 100% in.

[iStank]

I'd love to come but will be in Chicago on business that week. Have fun guys.

[ladahl]

Anyone else getting more interested? Right now #'s are hovering around 15-20 guys.

BTW: played 43 holes yesterday.... Some good, and some bad .. First snowman of the year came on a par 4.. ouch

[whysguy]

Both of my buddies backed out with other commitments.

Other than a weekend in San Diego, I have not played this year. Ugh.
Will get out this weekend somehow.

Golf Course Opening!

 

As the long range forecast has become more clear, it looks like spring is finally around the corner. Our Superintendent, Doug Mahal, has been monitoring conditions closely and is quite optimistic the course will be ready for play as early as this weekend. Doug stated that the turf condition may be the best he has ever seen coming out of winter, with no disease or ice injury to be found. Barring any unforeseen weather changes we will be open Friday, April 26. Tee times will begin at 12:00pm on Friday. Carts will be available but will be required to stay on the cart path. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries in regards to opening. Tee times can be made up to 7 days in advance by contacting the Golf Shop at 651.345.2672 x1.

Hey All.
Thinking of heading down to the Jewel this weekend, maybe Saturday.
Play maybe 36 if possible, then back to the cities.
Anybody?
Tee sheet will be full soon would be my guess.

[Gripit_Swiftit]

I'm the lowest cap playing? This is BS. What am I gonna do when I shoot 109 and owe everyone $100?

Also, i'm looking at 3 inches of snow. I just hope I get at least one round in before May 18th.

Lance,

you have any conforming scratch wedges laying around?

I have to qualify for the MGA Championship on 5/22 and I just realized my 56 & 60 Scratch wedges are not conforming?

I have money, I swear

It's either that or I have to go buy all new Bridgestone J40 black ox wedges.

[DaBigSaus]

Are playing at gross to for the qualifier? thats where my qualifier is...

[Gripit_Swiftit]

Pioneer Creek. I play there somewhat regularly and I grew up 10 minutes away so i've played it 1,000 times and can shoot 74 or better from any tees they have every time. Figured that was my best choice.

Nothing in those lofts. I sold off everything except for my 53 SS to 54 & 53 DS to 54 (two to rotate). 58 SS to 59, 63 set and those have my kiddos names stamped on 'em and don't think I'd ever part with them.

[Gripit_Swiftit]

Dang.....guess it's time to get on the B-Stone bandwagon unless I can find some Scratches at 2nd swing this week.

Really looking forward to May 18th.

Sooooooooo tempted to. But its little far of drive for me (just googled it, 1 hour and 30 minutes) and I would just be coming home the night before from my week long trip to Mexico.... =P

Course looks beautiful online

[PhilTickelson]

I might be interested in joining you guys. Let me double check with the girlfriend and make sure I'm not forgetting anything. I've played The Jewel twice, once was pretty good, the other round I don't care to talk about .
