Roll Call: North Carolina

So Roy just did what every other responsible county had already done.

Nice.

it seems to be the same as what we already had in Mecklenburg County - am I wrong?

Cooper did say, and I quote, ā€œstay-at-home is enforced by law and you shall only go out for essential, work; food; outside activities (golf in my opinion - my words not his).ā€

Anyone wanting to play Sunday or have an open spot in a tee time I could join?

Golf courses to stay open.

Looks like we can also travel for ā€œessential activities.ā€ My work is shutting down for at least two weeks so I suddenly have loads of free time. Anyone want to play TR/ SP next week?

Good to see. As long as people are smart about it there should be no issues keeping golf courses open. Heck, I see people more closely grouped together on walking trails around here all the time.

Who wants to chip in on getting the half day at the Cradle?

Hi to all Wilmington refugees, anyone up for some golf?

Wilmington here. Not sure when Iā€™m going to venture out to a course but Iā€™m down to play at some time. Stay safe.

Prices escalated quickly I see :grimacing:

Yeah, when I posted, it was, $2500

I will be playing every or every other day weather and life permitting. Iā€™m in the north part of town so Castle Bay and the Muni will be my stomping groundā€™s for the next month or so. I walk and carry and where I hit the ball social distancing is the norm, you might only see me on the tee and when I three putt.
Also up for a TR get together in the near future with the RDU pack.
I have the next 30 days off and I would rather spend money on golf then home improvement projects,

Hey guys, Iā€™m new here clearly so not sure how this works. I live in Winston (Wake ā€˜17) and play Bermuda Run which also gives me access to places like River Run, TPC Piper Glen, Jefferson Landing, and others.

I know these are crazy times and lots of clubs arenā€™t allowing guests anymore but would love to try to get together with some fellow golf lovers!

Awesome. I want to try and get out sometime this week. I live 15 mins from the Muni (Mayfaire) so Iā€™ll hit you up if and when I can get out and hopefully get a little golf in during this madness.

Welcome chipper! I am in High Point and play all over the triad. There is another Bermuda run member on here who was nice enough to have me out last year. Had a blast 3 putting every green!

Fore, very cool! I have played Oak Hollow onceā€¦ cool course if it was in better shape. That island tee box is a really cool hole imo.

Small world on Bermuda too I wonder if I know them. And sounds about right on the greens. I have about a year on them now and still struggleā€¦

Oak hollow is pretty cool, but I agree could be in better shape. If they switched to Bermuda greens it would be a great start.

I play the most at Jamestown Park as itā€™s the closest to the house and their greens are tough to beat for a muni.

I just heard Jamestown is closed until further notice, Iā€™m guessing because theyā€™re a muni? I havenā€™t heard of anyone else in the area closing.
