Excited to meet you! Is this your first NLU event?

Yep though with others having +4 hc, i do have to wonder if some of the folks in this just missed the cut for the pga top 70 and the playoffs …:wink:

For those worried about the walk, it’s about 7 golfing miles. There are hills (duh). I caddied for a gentleman who shot his age (73) from whites. If he could handle it, so can you. Don’t let tall tales fool you, plus you’re not carrying your bag.

But hydrate/stretch & you’ll be fine. We have drinking water / bev stations all over the course. This is NOT the course to break-in new shoes. Comfort is most important. I’ll also warn, there is virtually no shade on-course. If you’re a sun sleeve guy, bring ‘em. I wear them when I caddie.

Let’s have some fun!

Look forward to seeing you bright and early! Can we get any insights from @drewp on whether coffee will be available directly on the first tee or will we need to search that out? If I can pre-order a cold brew with oat milk and a sausage, egg and cheese to the 1st tee at 6:58 that would be wonderful.

p.s. @ThatDuffGuyPat is that #12 on George Wright in your profile?

Same. Also, what time does the range open? I’m gonna need plenty of loosening up.

How are the on course restrooms?

Squad, I am happy to report there will be Stone Creek Coffee there with breakfast. We will have some mini-scones as well to pair with it. There will also be a special NLU edition coffee in your gift bags at the end of the day.

While Cold Brew wasn’t currently in the plans, I will see what we can do.

Yessir, One of the best tracks in public golf

Former JP resident, now in Madison, WI. George Wright was my old home track. Great place! Their locker room is basically a 1:1 match with Erin Hills :slight_smile:
