A thread for the Texas folks

I don’t. I play in Seminole, Denver City, Andrews and sometimes Hobbs.

If I am desperate to play in town, I take a lot of beer to Hogan so I can forget where I am playing.

Austin/San Antonio folks, drop me a DM about your interest in an Austin/San Antonio ROOST (see jsteve’s post for details).

DFW and North Texas-adjacent folks, hop in here to link up with us if you haven’t already.

Also, if you want to join our season competition, we can get you plugged in. We’ll flex the current deadlines to accommodate post-Roost newcomers.

I’m in. Build it and we will come, just like the match play.

South Texas roost sign ups open - come one, come all, anyone south of Waco, between El Paso and Port Arthur is welcome. Screw dallas and their elitist ways (and terrible BBQ).

If you’re in North Texas or adjacent, here’s a sign up sheet for our area. This may be Roost, it may be sub-Roost (a coop?), or some other fowl designation. In any case, it’s a thing that already exists and is fun. Join us at

Want to stress here, since this thread is outside the paywall, you don’t need to be Nest member to join our local Whatsapp or the Big Plex Roost/Coop/Chicken Run, or come to our events.

There may be restrictions as to who can qualify for and play in the regional and national tournaments NLU runs with the champions of local competitions, but all are welcome in our stuff. Same goes with those losers and hippies down in Centex, Houston (this was typed from my childhood home in Houston), and all less populated parts unknown in this state.

Massive +1 to the South Texas roost/whatsappthreads, and ALL the events. Qualifiers for NLU/NIT events might be refuge-limited, but we are an open society of golf idiots. Come join us!

After my first visit this weekend, I just wanted to thank you all for gracing this earth with Buc-ee’s.

That is all.

Our trip home from the Woodlands to Dallas yesterday (brutal drive with lots of traffic and accidents) was sadly not interupted with a trip to Buc-ee’s. The line just to get into the parking lot off the exit was 100+ cars deep. Amazing

I grew up in Lake Jackson, TX where they’re based out of. They used to just be corner stores down there, but have blown up recently. I still stop at one almost every time I see them.

anyone south of Waco

Guess I’ll be signing up with the Big Plex Roost. As the oldest sibling, living in Waco gives me a lot more sympathy for the little brothers and sisters of the world…

Well shit, Waco calls itself “Centex” with reckless abandon, so maybe I can’t join Big Plex either. I’m just a NC expat looking for a home

You’re of course welcome in Big Plex. As is anyone who finds it convenient to them.

And you would be more than welcome down here in the Austin/SanAntonio roost. We could use some educatin’.

Do you really want to be associated with something called the Big Plex?
