Roll Call: Eastern PA/ South NJ

The bunkers have needed some tlc for a bit and with the course in nice shape, money can now be spent on the next project. Really looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Weekdays are not bad at all. Some take advantage of the opportunity to walk but you can still buzz around pretty quick with a cart. Not a bad walk at all if you like to do that. Weekends are definitely busy.

Pace of play is still pretty good but you can get caught if you’re playing a later weekend round (1ishpm or later). If you don’t mind playing early, before 8:00 a.m., you can get a time a few days after those times open. If you want a prime spot, 8-10am, you’ll probably want to wake up early the day those times open. I may or may not be that guy :wink:

Hey all. I have a tee time at 11:40am on Sunday at the venerable Mountain View GC in beautiful Ewing, NJ I am trying to fill out. If anyone is looking to peg it, let me know.

Thanks a lot for the insight - didn’t mean to grill you right as you showed up!

I agree - it was a super easy and enjoyable walk. I can see myself wanting to buzz around to get as many holes as possible on some afternoons/evenings though. 8:00am or earlier is actually preferable for weekends to this all sounds really promising!

No worries! I’m always happy to talk about The Lu. I really love the place and the people there.

Shockingly have not filled out tee time for Sunday at Mountain View.

2 handicap (I am a human ATM at this cap), never throw clubs, never give swing tips, and staunch proponent of ready set go golf.

Perks of Mountain View: no dress code, changing shoes in the lot is encouraged, very walkable, and a fun lay out.

I can’t take any credit for this as I saw it in another refuge thread. But how great would it be to do a PA v. NJ series of tournaments in 2022? Maybe 4 to 5 stops throughout the year, different scoring set ups for each one. Each 4 some is 2 NJ v. 2 PA residents. Figure out some small prizes for each one or the end of year.

If this gets any traction, I am happy to help organize. Would be interested to hear people’s thoughts on it.

Lolololololol.

This year I reached the milestone of having lived in NJ for the same # of years I lived in PA.

I’m very split.

Love this idea

great idea. I’m in

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.
