Ope 4 - July 11th and 12th, 2025 (Raffle sheet in post 3800)

I do want to play Erin Hills, I do. But I truly don’t know if I can stomach a ~$600 round of golf

Think of it as part of the Ope expenses, Lawsonia 4 rounds for $400 is a bargain, you’re rolling that savings into Erin

Listen, for sure. And it’s unlikely I’ll have another opportunity to play it, at least not for less money

Plus you’ll get to play it only a month after Lauren wins the Women’s US open there!

I have news for you. Once the USWO isn’t there at the same time @ajvhandel normally hosts No Reservations Taken, there are cost savings.

Correct! Also, @golfnsloth in the wild, before he left us for Bandon.

Our event at the other course in Hartford is full, but considering emailing again to see if i can get some more tee-times added. Would love to have you!

EDIT: they don’t have 2025 rates posted but I seem to remember it being around $50 for a non-resident to walk.

@bignanski if you can’t swing the Erin plans I will gladly find a goat track for us to slap it around at pre-Ope.

Can you guis all politely back the heck off and let me play Erin with Nanski?

I’m trying to do Wisconsin premier golf trifecta of Erin, Sedge, and Woodlands played together with my gui.

Nanski is his own man and can make his own decision. I definitely won’t hold it against him at all if he picks to hang with you.

@bignanski if you decide against EH I’ll take your spot. No pressure, but you have an out if you want one. I’m already planning to be in the area-ish on Wednesday evening so can easily adapt my plans. Can let me know as late as morning of and I can make it work.

I think I’ll give ya my spot at Erin T. I see I’ve also already put in for WashCo, and - as I’ll be driving over that morning - being able to sleep in an extra few hours (and save a bit of coin) probably works better for my current status in life
