Whatās the word on Ekwanok? Thereās a thousand greens offer to play there
That sounds awesome! I actually will be in ME for my annual college buddies golf tournament and following weekend tournament at my home course.
Definitely interested in future events like that though.

Iām playing with my fiancĆ©e this Sunday at 8 am at our home course in Concord (NH), Beaver Meadow, but everyone weāve asked to join us has had a conflict. If anyone wants to join us for a casual round, let me know. Weāve got a foursome booked, but so far itās just the two of us. I know itās early and will likely be cold, but we gotta get in our 18 before the football game starts!
I live in Lee, NH. Grew up playing at Concord Country Club when my Dad was a member. Lived in Bedford through highscool and played a lot at Candia Woods, Souhegan and Passaconaway.
I live 10 minutes from Nippo Lake in Barrington now, so Iāve been playing a lot there since its close and I have 2 young kids now. Alos a big fan of Pease. Thinking about joining a weekly 9 hole league if anyone has any good reccomendations near the seacost NH/Maine.
Would love to meet up for some rounds this spring/summer with refugees in the area.
Welcome!
I am not too familiar with the east side of the state but the west side has some great courses. Let me know if youāre ever in the area and we can hit up my home course of Hooper.
Hey Man, Iām here in Bedford NH myself. Similar situation of a couple of kids in school and play Candia passaconaway and derryfield mostly. Grew up in Manchester. A few of my younger friends live in the portsmouth area and play breakfast hill a ton. The league there seems awesome with a great group of guys. If you havenāt played up there check it out. One of the better tree lined public courses youāll find and the greens are normally great. They have afternoon membershipsā¦not sure if a membership is required for the league. Hope that helps.
Ah man, family lives in Strafford and itās where I get up to in the summers. Grew up playing at Candia and have played Nippo a few times. Straight nostalgia in this post, love it. If I get up this summer (COVID-dependent) would be happy to get a round in.
Thanks for the tip. Iāve heard great things about breakfast hill, but havenāt made it out there yet. Iāll def look into it.
Not sure what your work schedule is like, but I work from home, so can sneak out mid week for daytime rounds every once in a while. Let me know if you wanna hit em some time.
Sounds great. Im working from home these days as well and can occasionally sneak out. When i doā¦if time isnāt an issue its normally zipping up 101 so we should connect in a few months when weather allows.
Anyone know of any Seacoast/Manchester courses open for winter play? Iām drifting down there this week due a few days that are borderline warm enough.
I donāt think youāre going to have any luck. Definitely not manch as there is still snow/ice on the ground and they wonāt open in the winter regardless. Outside shot at seacoast but Iām 99% sure you arenāt going to have any luck. This time of year your best bet is way down in the cape or RI.
I played Sagamore which is in, I believe North Hampton, late December 2 years ago so you could try there. Good luck!
August NIT Qualifier in MA
Listen, do I take issue with the fact that this ended up being in Boston? For sure. Am I going to use it as bulletin board material? Also, for sure.
You will have ample opportunity to give me shit about it to my face on 8/28
Hey VT/NH fam, @hannajb8 and I are trying to swing a small meetup sometime in August, likely at Middlebury. Thereās a chance that Iām the only one on here living in VT, and itās a bit of a haul for the NH folks but thought Iād post incase someone wanted to join!
I donāt live in VT anymore but I went to UVM and would love to time a visit along with a Refuge meetup. I have some customers Iāve taken on in New England as well that I will be traveling to as we come come out of Covid so I can hopefully be flexible. Pencil me in.
Depending on when in August, Iāll likely either be in Glen or Rochester, NH and I would love to come on over!
I spent 12 years in the Hanover area (I failed to launch, post graduation), and my grandparents lived in Rye for a great many years, so NH and VT are two of my favorite places in the world.
