We used forecaddies last year on Mammoth and we weren’t impressed. Could have been bad luck or tough to attract caddies without year round work. Our caddie at Bandon this year said a bunch of them went out to train new caddies at SV and most were starting with zero golf experience.
That being said, we’ll get forecaddies again this year and hope things keep improving every year.
Back to Minnesota content…

Yeah I swung through SV summer of '19 on the way back from a work trip, and played as a single. The threesome I was paired with had two caddies with them, and one of them was good and the other was worthless. Like I would have been talking to the pro shop worthless if it had been my money.
This is great news, the new villas they have are the best buddies trip lodging we have stayed. The courses are in need of some softening In the opinion of the high handicappers of our group.
Wonder what this is going to do to the cost. Assuming it will go up, but hopefully not too much. Been part of a group of 20-24 that goes up in the spring the last few years.
Hey all, @C_MackDaddy and myself are getting our match taken care of next Saturday, the 10th at Highland National. If anyone is interested in joining us please reach out! Tee time is at noon and I believe we have it booked for 4.

@QGorski Congrats on moving on to the next round. @BaxterMSP I have to pull out of this tourney. We just bought a house and have plenty to do before we move in midapril…did you know that there are a thousand shades of white to choose between when looking at paint? There is no way i will get many (if any rounds in) before our April 30th deadline.
Plus we all know Quinn would have moved on.

Bought a house last year. Sherwin Williams Color Consult may have saved my marriage. Person came in, picked out wall, cabinet and bathroom color in 1 hour. Looks phenomenal and I didn’t need to decide which shade of 50 different whites to go with. Best $50 I spent in the home buying process.

I’m not colorblind, but I consider myself color mute. So to not have to sit there with color palettes of greys and whites was THE best. I’ll preach it from the mountain tops.
I just let my wife paint the walls whichever color she wants, I don’t want to waste precious bargaining chips on paint colors that could be better spent on golf. I golfed both days last weekend, and when I got home Sunday my formerly white hallway was now light blue. Whatever, I played 36 that weekend.

Sad to hear but no free passes just yet. @pkeys07 you’re the lone entry left on the match play waitlist.
Would you like to take on @QGorski?

I’ve been very absent from the Refuge for quite awhile but excited to #getinvolved again.
The match play tournament was one of my personal highlights of last season so very pumped to get going again.
Happy golf season, friends!
