Roll Call: Maryland

Sick. Looks awesome.

Played Queenstown River today. Greens have recovered nicely since they aerated. Fairways still pretty wet and beat up. Have heard rumors that Chartwell is a complete mess after the renovation with the crazy swings in weather lately

Has anyone played Pine Ridge lately? I used to play there a lot, but got tired of the goose shit and slow play.

Is anyone else absolutely as giddy about this week’s forecast as I am? That’s some fine grass growing weather!

Planning to overseed the front yard tomorrow before getting out for 18 around lunch. This is by far my favorite weather.

i was there 2-3 weeks ago and it was in great shape! not sure if that’s recent enough though based on the crazy weather.

looking for a round this weekend if anyone’s game! earlier saturday the better, not seeing much available in city/county times.

Just getting back from Worthington Manor. I was very impressed by the conditions. Despite the heat/rain there were not many areas burned out or totally soaked. A few areas were in need of a mow, but overall… 7/10 for current conditions.

Booked two tee times this week. Weather looks baller.

Hoping to get out on mt pleasant after work tomorrow.

What’s “after work”. I can get out after 330

I got 4 already for 2:54, I’m 50/50 on being able to make that though.

Would anyone be interested in purchasing a certificate for a foursome at Hunt Valley Country Club from me? I bought it during a virtual silent auction earlier in the year, and will likely be unable to use it before it expires on 12/31. The only stipulation is that the certificate is only valid Monday-Thursdays.

Send me a PM if interested and we can workout pricing. Not necessarily looking for full recoup of what I spent, just don’t want the certificate to go to waste completely!

Punched fairways and SLOW greens at mt. Pleasant yesterday. Hoping to take a day off next week and do 36 at Queenstown.

River greens have recovered nicely since being punched a few weeks back. Some of the fairways are struggling after the high heat/heavy rain combo and have still been pretty wet so hopefully they rebound with this nice weather. Haven’t played the Lakes lately but would assume it’s about the same or maybe even slightly worse as it doesn’t tend to dry out as well as the River course does.

Had another personal best at Piney Branch. Playing again Friday.

I’ll be hitting the River tomorrow afternoon, but taking the persimmons out there to get ready for the DMV Fall Classic, excited for the wildly different perspective and ending up in spots i probably never have.

Anyone else playing in the Classic from the Baltimore area? @RobertHunter doing an awesome job sorting all this out, any ideas on how to arrange carpooling?

That sounds sick! What tees do you plan on playing?

A fantastic question that I’ll be wrestling with for the next 28 hours…

Last time I was there we tipped it out, and it was the most fun I’ve ever had out there. I think the blues with some old equipment will be a lot of golf course [6600 yds?], but QH might be my happy place, so even if i get my teeth kicked in for that decision, I’ll still love every minute of it.

Yeah we typically play the Blues but played the tips a few times last month and had a lot of fun with the tee boxes making some of the holes completely. I think the Blues are about 6800 on the River.

My buddies and I lucked in to a corporate membership group this year so we are typically up there every weekend
