Roll Call - MN contingent? (Part 1)

I’ve yet to play either, but from anyone who has ever been up there it seems that these are pretty clearly #1 & #2. I love Stoneridge so if these are truly better, I don’t know what the hell I’ve been waiting for!

I don’t know what you’ve been waiting for either! Both are great, but as the poll says, I think there is a clear better course. About 3-4 holes on the back nine at the Wilderness don’t do anything for me, and I never felt that way about any of the holes at the Quarry.

Also, for those who are masochists, the tips at the Quarry has a few of the craziest tee shots I’ve ever seen. Just go back there and check them out on holes 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, and 17.

  1. tyfys in keeping the thread humming as of late.
  2. any chance you are a car racing fan, and know about kirkeys? (they are a brand of racing seat)
  3. if i had your name (barring any sort desire to not be called “kirkey”) id turn one of these into a club head cover. cough brenda/geaugolf cough

and yes. the boredom is real today.

I am starring out my window periodically thinking “I could golf in this.”

I’ve got another question because I too am bored. Do we know if Keller cut down all the trees with the red ring of death on them?

we got some serious snow melt yesterday and today

The boredom has been real for these past couple weeks, leading to an increased amount of posts on this website. Don’t blame you for the boredom. I have never been much of a racing fan, so never heard of these haha. Never heard that nickname before either! I’ve definitely had my fair share of nicknames throughout high school though.

MN golfer in the south metro. Been following the nlu content for a couple years and wanted to pop in and say hi as we are getting closer to the opening of the season.

May your putts be straight and uphill, your beers cold, and your birdies plentiful.

Cheers!

BREAKING NEWS:

We have our winner! The Quarry at Giants Ridge takes home the (well deserved) trophy. I don’t have anything to give them other than my recommendation to get up there if you haven’t yet. They were the 1 seed in this bracket for a reason.

Thanks everyone for participating and making this last week a little less boring!

If anyone has any other ideas on a bracket topic just to have something to talk about in here until the snow melts, I’d gladly do another one. Or you can do it yourself!

The fury of thinking about these courses combined with the hot takes on other’s personal favorites might generate enough heat to get this snow the fuck outta here
