Roll Call: Minnesota Part 2 - SIM MEETUP post 9471

I booked an 11:10a tee time at Braemar this Sunday (7/23). Have 2 spots ($48 each) available if anyone is interested.

Thanks.

I live in NW Iowa and honestly don’t know much about the public golf scene in MN, so I’m going to rock with Landsmeer Golf Club for my NW Iowa needs (and my favorite Iowa public golf).

The best steak I ever had was served to me by a couple that hosted me for a dinner while I was in college. I’m not sure a restaurant could even begin to compare.

Oh man! I knew I recognized your handle from the Iowa thread earlier this year. Moved up there very recently, right?

Work brings me to Orange City/Le Mars at least annually and I’ve never made the schedule work to get to Landsmeer. Looking forward to rectifying that the next time I’m in the area.

I’m a big fan. It’s a true ā€œgets the job done situation.ā€

Let me know when you come through, would definitely join.

I’ve played the Ridge in Sioux Center a couple times but haven’t made it to Landsmeer yet. I’ll put it on the list

All this talk about Keller piqued my curiosity about what it was like before the 12 M $ reno. I only played it once before and it was so long ago, I couldn’t remember any details. I pulled the aerials from 2012 and 2022. It’s fascinating to look at the differences between the two.

Holy hell! I never played it pre-reno, but a few Standouts for me - hole #2, yuck, no thank you pre-reno into one of my favorite holes now. Obviously the tree removal over the last 2 years is crazy. Tons of great bunker additions 1, 3, 12, 16 etc etc. 10, like 2, looked awful, now one of the most fun gettable par 5’s. This is a whole new #perspective on how lucky we are now with Keller.

You remember that 5 stair by the mcdonalds? I busted a clean A Reynolds frontside flip on that bad boy clean on the screws. That was a highlight without question!

TP5 for the gang

Excited to be here!

I do. It was awesome when the rail broke and it became an out rail. So fun.
