I'll be in Houston Tuesday March 6th if anyone wants to play. Or if you prefer to show up downtown and have some drinks that is fine too. I'm looking to get hosted or toasted.

Excess whore.

[Pete_Pittock]

Back to Australia for the fourth, and final, time - Three golf plus an R&R from Viet Nam.  Going as a single, so there is room to join a person relegated to a medical cart and playing it forward. I hope yesterday's 109 in Melbourne was an aberration.

I'm hoping to sneak down to FLA in February and hang out with some golf buddies and beer drinkers. I laughed a couple months ago when we were paying our tab at a locale pub and my friends tab was $43 and mine was $15. It was really funny as he was drinking the craft beers and I was drinking the Budweiser that's typically on sale. It also was the first day I remember actually having separate bills as custom is to just throw cash on the bar. He laughed and said I've been robbing you pretty good all summer. 


So I've promised a friend to visit the West Coast of FLA and play Fort Myers CC with him, as its intrigued him for years and I've never seen it. Surely can swing by the Hideout as there is always a good game there if you can find a member friend to take you! Might take a peek at Calusa Pines if able as my day here at the Jersey Shore with Dana Fry was really fun. He was a gracious host and was quite interested in my thoughts on the job they are doing for the Union League here in my backyard. We talked SJ weather, scale and all about the soils he is working with on site and it was really fun for me . Thanks again Dana!


Gotta take a swing by Streamsong and see the Black course that Gil Hanse built as I've seen the others and then off to the East Coast and my old stomping grounds centered around the Nomad Surf Shop. Anyone who knows that particular spot would likely find me close by! Just a forewarning to my friends in the area if they want to hang a "gone fishing" sign at their club/house at this point in time LOL!

Now that’s a trip I’d love to join...

[Matthew Rose]

I just moved back to Aus at the end of September and have not had much success finding playing partners yet - feel free to reach out if you are visiting. I don't belong to any clubs but I do have plans to make my way around some of the finer public access facilities in the greater Melbourne and Geelong areas at some point.

[Noah Weinberger]

I'm in New Zealand for the next few weeks. Staying very close to Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club where I've already logged a few rounds - My first ever authentic links golf experience, What a course!  I'll be checking out Royal Wellington this weekend and planning on doing some traveling through the North Island after New Year's.


I'll be visiting Melbourne for a few weeks before returning back to the States. Pete, would be happy to join you at Peninsula and StAB, am 90% sure I'll be there Feb 16-18.


If anyone is in New Zealand through January or around Melbourne through February please reach out as I'd love to play a round with any of you. Email is noahpweinberger@gmail.com

Good Morning Everyone,


I am going to be traveling to Southern California from January 3rd to the 14th. I will be playing lots of golf with my uncle, but he does have a day job haha. Hopefully some GCA folks would want to get together for a game.


I do already have a few booked:
January 4th - PGA West
January 6th- Riviera
January 8th- Virginia County Club
January 9th- Shady Canyon
January 11th- Big Horn


I am a PGA Professional, and not looking for access. However, if anyone would like to get together for a game in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, or the desert on the other days not listed, please let me know! I have lurked in this community for years, and met lots of great people, and would love to meet more!


Feel free to shoot me a PM.

There have been a couple of changes to my itinerary, and those have been integrated into the above.

        For drinks, meals I have included areas where I am staying.

I will be in Dornoch May 8 to June 1. I am always happy to meet up with GCA-ers (or lurkers ) who are passing thru.

My wife and I are making our first visit to Cabo San Lucas from Feb. 9-24. The only golf we have lined up is a noon round on Sat., Feb. 15 at Diamante Dunes (complete with, what I'm told is, a low-pressure time-share pitch.) Despite the elimination of three beach holes, Cabo del Sol Ocean appears to be booked solid during the time we'll be there. We'll look around for other opportunities to play.

"Low Pressure". Good luck with that. Friend said it was one of the worst experiences of his life, even though he loved the course and made his first hole in 1. He was so angry he sent them a 2 page letter after...

Pete:


As it turns out, I'm going to be a few days behind you, with a big group of people down for the Renaissance Cup.  We hadn't set a date when I helped you make your connections.  Sorry to miss you there -- and be careful where you take the cart, because I'll notice!

Brian,


I don’t recall anyone ever mentioning Virginia Country Club, a course I played a few times when I lived in Long Beach. Not a great piece of land, if I recall correctly, but it does have a fun drop shot Par 3.


My favorite property in that area is Rec Park, which has quite a few shots that are fun to play. But, this muni is usually a pace of play nightmare, at least for the first five holes.


One of my greatest treats was playing Rec Park with Tommy Naccarato. Despite all the times I played the course, Tommy made me feel like I must have been blind.

[Jason Hines]

In lot's of places before this, but first golf chance will be in Dallas - Fort Worth Easter weekend and free for golf the 10th - 11th.  No issues with access so up for anything.


Last year went without my clubs and regretted it as the weather was perfect.

[Jeff Schley]

I will be in Dornoch May 8 to June 1. I am always happy to meet up with GCA-ers (or lurkers ) who are passing thru.


GCA-ers can message me here. Lurkers can email me at tcmnav@aol.com

DT,
I may be in Dornoch the end of May and will let you know when I figure it out. 

[Aaron Hanson]

If anyone is going to be in the Palm Springs area Feb 22-29, I'll be in La Quinta and would love to meet up and play with others. I'm game to play anywhere, but I've also booked a few early tee times during the week at various PGA West courses, likely going out as a single.

[Jonathan Mallard]

I'll be in Ireland July 2 -> 21st.


I'll have my clubs and will play a couple of rounds, but the main point of the trip will be to honeymoon with my wife.


We'll be staying in various parts of the island. So far, the only item nailed down is a trip to Skellig Michael.


I've gotten a few suggestions for items off the beaten path. If you have thoughts, please send them to me via PM.


Jonathan

[Dan_Callahan]

Spend a day at the beach in Akumal.  One of my favorite trips was spending a week there with very small children.  That was some time ago - they had just gotten telephone lines.

[Andy Shulman]

I'll be in the Netherlands April 23 - May 1 with time for two rounds and in Northern MI-Upper Peninsula the week leading up to Labor Day.  Planning to play Belvedere and Marquette Greywalls based on comments I've read on GCA.
