Austin (CHAMPS), Houston and Dallas peeps, it’s time to fire up the planning for the 2022 NLU Texas Cup. The 2021 edition, held at Pine Dunes in the booming metropolis of Frankston, Texas, was an unqualified success. 36 refugees gathered to play three official rounds in a Ryder Cup-inspired format, and the Austin team rose to the challenge with a fairly dominating win. The planning committee is hard at work on the 2022 event, and by that I mean we circulated a few DMs on here last week and realized we should probably pick a date sometime soon, and do some other stuff too.
So, please respond to the poll below. There will undoubtedly be things that pop up which end up ruling out one (or more) of these weekends, but this is the starting point. We want to avoid Masters weekend, and Memorial Day weekend. The earlier in the year, the better the weather (it was pretty hot in June), and while April or early May get a decent amount of rain in Texas, later in May and June bring more chance for severe weather. That said, there’s more daylight the closer we get to June. All things come with tradeoffs.
Please pick three options. There will be a further narrowing of target dates before we plunk down a credit card, so for now just pick your top 3 options.
This thread will NOT be the event thread; we’ll start a new one with the always-required Google sheet, witty banter, and endless gifs.
As someone who would like to have @cgroom as their alt shot partner again, it would also be selfishly great for me if we could accommodate this request
