I know west of the Mississippi is a large land area but any chance the strapped boys are in Texas? I know there were at Steven’s and cedar crest a few months ago….

I’m hoping they’d wait until football season and do the West Texas, Friday Night Lights thing. Driving for four hours at a time to find some hidden gem in the middle of oil and cotton fields is about as Strapped as it gets. But I’d settle for some DFW action.

Any DFW folks play out at Luna Vista recently? Playing out there Friday afternoon with some buddies from work, but no one has any clue what the course conditions are like.
Last time I was out there was a couple months ago but it was post the freeze. Seemed like they did okay with that, can’t speak to it after all the rain we’ve had though.

I played there about a month ago. Like @SpiethGotMono hinted at, the rain made it really muddy and some greens were in a tough spot post-freeze. But for a weekday walking rate of like $15, it’ll play great.

Luna Vista was really in pretty good condition. Minimal burn from the freeze. The course is a nice routing and was a great walk. The onto downside is it’s loud out there. With all the construction activity right outside and bordering on a shooting range there’s not a lot of peace and quiet.
Extra spot today at Sherrill Park course 1 at 12:16.

Had the opportunity to play in the Fort Worth Mid Am this weekend. Saw more than a few nest towels on bags so I’m betting a handful of you played as well (only guy I knew was @WhineyCracker52 so sorry if I didn’t recognize the rest of y’all). Just wanted to give a shoutout to how fun of an event it was. The Rock and Pecan Hollow were in top tier shape, 4 hour rounds both days, some incredible scoring, and every guy I met was nothing but friendly. 10/10 will play again, although I will be working on my handicap to get out of the championship flight cause I do not have 67-68 in me!

Anyone have any insight on golf in/around Fredricksburg?
Lady Bird is a quaint track. Boot ranch is fantastic if you have connections

No connections here. Didn’t know if LB was good or if we should drive somewhere closer to Austin
I like Lady Bird a lot, there is also Buck Horn in Comfort and Commanche Trace in Kerrville

Buckhorn is a good deal. It’s been in great shape for the price the few times I’ve played it.

I would second Kerrville and Buckhorn. I’ve played a lot at Kerrville and it is a very fun muni. If I remember correctly, Buckhorn is a little more pricey but very fun as well
I think Buckhorn, Lady Bird and Scott Schreiner (Kerrville Muni) are all about $50. Comanche Trace I believe is around $100+/-.
