Roll Call: New Orleans

Not sure if anyone here likes to play in charity scrambles. I put on a charity tournament for the BTD Foundation. We raise money for mental health awareness and mental health services in the city.

The event is March 22 at City Park South. Checkin/lunch at 11 tee time at 12. Food from Delanie’s, Blue Oak, Moe’s, Juniors on Harrison, Clesi’s. Booze from Tito’s, Urban South, St Arnold, and more.

This is our 8th year holding the event and it’s always a great time. Last year we raised $60,000 for the foundation. All the money the foundation raises goes to local charities, schools, and hospitals. If anyone is interested in coming out feel free to shoot me a message. Cheers!

I don’t usually venture out that way, but Joey Ks was always a favorite of my families growing up. The owners sold recently, but they did sell it to employees so I would expect it to be on par.

I like Katz’s deli over there too but it’s not New Orleans cuisine if that’s what you’re looking for.

Annual reminder to everyone heading to Jazz Fest this year, if you stop by Liuzza’s By The Track on your way in or out please stop by the garage bar and ask for Michael. First round is on me.

Shreveport is Big Plex territory. We had the first North La NLU event at Querbes in February. Holla at @duckhunter07 and he can get you our Discord invite (I stink at it)

There are a handful of us roost members in Shreveport. Come join us for a round!

Howdy sir! As @dirtywill267 has noted, we have annexed Shreveport into Big Plex and are very happy about it. Definitely hit up their crew as they have a great group of guys and will make trips to join us out west or vice versa a good amount.

To join our discord and get involved, follow this link: Big Plex

Need someone to annex Baton Rouge lol. I don’t think there are many of us here.

@dirtywill267 awesome! just joined the discord looking forward to connecting with y’all appreciate the invite!

I’m going to be moving to New Orleans temporarily in the beginning of April and will probably spend a couple months in the area… Looking forward to getting some games going with fellow refugees! Where does everyone like to play? I have played TPC Louisiana, and English Turn, as well as Joe Bartholomew. I have yet to play Audubon…

Hey NOLA guys, going to be in town this weekend on a boys trip and none of us have been to the city before. Tried scrolling through this thread to see previous recommendations. Any good spots for watching the NCAA tournament games this week?
Thanks!

We bounce around all 4 of those to be honest. TPC and English Turn are the “championship” courses of the bunch. Batholomew is fun and cheap. Audubon is short, quick and fun. Let us know when you are down here and we’ll get a game going somewhere

Ahh damn - sorry I missed this (I was out of town for the event anyways, but still). Lot’s of action on the thread in the past month!

How’d the event go this year? Hopefully I’ll catch ya at Jazz Fest

No worries! It went great. Lots of rain in the morning but it cleared up and we were able to get out even though it was cart path only. Raised another $60,000 for the foundation this year.

Where’s the best practice facilities in the area?

Lakewood has a decent set up. I would assume TPC does as well.

I’ve settled in, hit the range at City Park, and I scored a Hot Deal for English Turn tomorrow. Would love to get a game going when it’s convenient! Refugees unite!
