I believe November 14th is the last day of the season.

HCC is definitely worth playing if you have time. I would try and play the West Course which is the old course. It’s shorter, lots of trees and can be narrow at times.

As resident straight-hitting poofer of the Refuge, shoot that right in my veins.

The West course also hosted the 1940 PGA Championship, and over the years a PGA Tour event, LPGA event, and Nationwide Tour event. Plus Ben Hogan was the Head Pro during the 40s. So a lot of history in that course.

Anyone have a connection at the country club of Scranton? My dad grew up in Scranton playing all the goat tracks and has always dreamed of playing it. He recently retired and I’d love to get out there with him if possible. Might not be this summer since my wife and I are expecting our first child in a few weeks, but might be able to get out in the fall or next summer.

The Member For A Day website currently has an auction going which includes a round there. Hope you find an alternative (cheaper) way to experience the course.

I have played it once. So, not often, lol. But, I’d be happy to tee it up sometime this summer.

Looking to possibly get a lesson in the Philly/Lancaster/Berks County area. I have gotten an iron lesson at Sittler Golf from Anthony Schweppe which was nice, but looking to broaden my reach a little. I have heard good things about Tobiason at Deerfield, but wanted to reach out here to see if anybody had any recs. Specifically looking to get a driver lesson if that would change any recommendations. Also looking for somebody who isn’t going to reconfigure my entire swing.

Heading down to Hazelton Monday until Friday. Could play Monday or t/w/t in the afternoon probably. Any recs or anyone got any plans and openings in the area.

Only course in that area I have played was Sugarloaf. Would recommend. Has always been in great shape.
edit: Also it looks like Jack Frost National isn’t too far either. That place is really nice, but also very tight tree lines.

If anyone in Central PA doesn’t mind a bit of a drive. Fun 36-hole day planned in a couple weeks. I got over my skis as usual and booked too many times. Calling Monday to give back any unused times…
