Playing Jeffersonville for the first time tomorrow. Anything to know heading into the round? Thanks
Just that it’s insanely awesome.
For reals though the green on 18 is impossible.
Other than that just a fun fun fun fun time.

Keep away from the fescue! The greens are tricky to read… I like to keep it below the hole. You’re going to love it.
And like @ChickPhilA said… the 18th green is broken.

I def forgot about the fescue (I managed to avoid it until the 18th and then was just like “f this green” lol).
Still having nightmares about 18 from The Steeplechase. Don’t let that stop you though it’s a fantastic track!

Come on up to New Jersey! A nice big group of golfers will be teeing it up at Rock Spring Golf Course for the final big event of the season! Come join one of the few Raynor public tracks for what is going to be a great event. $125 gets you golf BBQ and come cash prizes. Join The Shut, I promise it will be a blast!

I’m excited to come up for it!!
Anybody have connections at Llanerch? These putter covers are

Cross posting this. Posted in another PA/NJ thread about getting some 2022 PA v. NJ get togethers across the states. See below if interested.
Trying to not be a lazy bum and actually follow through on my suggestion. If you could fill this out if you’re interested, it’ll help with planning purposes. I am more than willing to accept help if anyone wants to help me organize as I am still relatively new to the Refuge. Will cross post this to the other PA/NJ groups. I am thinking we can organize as many of these as people want to do across NJ/PA for Spring/Summer/Fall 2022. Actual structure TBD. Handicap is being asked just to get an idea for groupings when the time comes. Anyone with course connections let me know, as that would be easier than just cold calling for a massive tee time block.

Anyone have any insight on what’s going on at Cobbs Creek? It seems like the answer is nothing as of now. The official Instagram account promised an update soon, but that was almost 2 months ago. After all the momentum the project seemingly had I’d hate to see it not go anywhere.
I know when they closed on Halloween last year for the renovation, it was said that they would not reopen until summer 2023….
I was recently looking into this myself. There’s not a whole lot on the foundation’s website where all the friends of Cobbs Creek updates were supposedly going to migrate to. Their Facebook page has recent posts but it’s all just photos from back when there was play on the course about a year or so ago or earlier. It’s all kind of strange. I’m really excited about the plans for that facility but one commenter on the Facebook posts who lives in the area complained of the “overgrown field” the community now has as its backyard. There’s not much out there about progress. I’m out of town this week and this weekend but I may go take a look myself at some point soon out of curiosity.
I took a drive around there a couple months ago and it is just entirely overgrown and untouched currently. The stakes are out for tees and greens but construction hadn’t started at all as of the end of August.

Radio silence and a year without shovels in the ground isn’t a great sign, is it?

I just reached out to a guy I contacted who was involved with the Friends of Cobbs Creek and hooked me up with the historical compilation of the course a bunch of people involved put together. I’ll report back with any response I get, I last corresponded with him in July of last year.

Yeah I’ve noticed the same lack of progress on my recon trips over there. It’s gone to meadow and there are tee/hole markers.
It’s a bummer that we went a whole year not being able to play Cobbs and there’s no progress to show for it. I assume maybe they’re stuck in the permit process and maybe creek work. But it’s still disappointing.

Actually drove past today. Grass has been mowed as opposed to a couple months ago when it was about shoulder high. Not sure if that means any work is imminent, but
A: I saw no equipment or trucks
B: I imagine they wouldn’t start work on the cusp of winter but I am not expert.

Been almost 2 months since announcing on social media that there would be an update on the project and there don’t seem to be any signs of one forthcoming.
