We have room for two! Late morning
Wish I could, have to work, unfortunately. How late in the morning are we talking?
Between 1130-12
At thatās even worse actually since I have an appointment in the afternoon. Oh well, another time.
Paging @jaygrizzle
That call was BS.

Didnāt get a chance to watch tonight. Gonna have to catch a recap later on and catch up in the hockey thread. Iām sure thereās plenty of juice in there haha.
They completely missed itā¦HOWEVAHā¦icing the puck over and over is a tough, tough way to close out 2 minutes. As soon as Schwartz missed, it was like, āhere we goā¦ā
Also, Jones was unreal in the third to keep them in it.
99% of the time I donāt like going after the refs just because itās moving so quickly, but this was pretty obvious. Players make bad plays, refs make bad calls. Bigger issue is the review rulesā¦wouldāve literally taken 15 seconds to get it right. I donāt understand how they can review an offsides 30 seconds later but canāt look at that.

I could play on the 24th but would need to be done around 2. Any chance you could tee it up a little earlier? If not I could just play 9 and bolt.
I think @Brick is driving in that morning and wonāt make it until then. Sorryā¦
Feel free to come out for 9 though!
Whatās up fellas?! Great to see so many responses on STL golf in here.
I just joined the Refuge, so Iāve got lots of catching up to do in here.
To keep it simple answering the initial question, AnnBriar is definitely my āgo-toā public course around here, but I do love Gateway too. One that I donāt think anyone has mentioned yet is Far Oaks. Aside from the weird par 5 start and the fact that the last time I was out there the greens were a bit rough, I enjoy that course.
Hands down, my favorite private track is Boone Valley. Hard to go wrong with Old Warson, STLCC, Meadowbrook or Persimmon, though.
Love the idea of meeting up with a group and teeing it up one of these days!
@IlliniGolferHack we definitely gotta get out one of these days!

Count me in for 9. Let me know if I need to book the tee time, or just tell me when to show up. Thanks for the inclusion.

Annbriar and Gateway I like. Far Oaks Iām not too bullish on, but I like how easy and cheap it is to get on weekday evenings when they donāt have leagues.
One thing I cannot stand is the Walterās setup to charge walkers and riders the same. Itās actually detracted me from playing their courses many times. Why the fuck would I want to pay for a cart if Iād rather carry my bag?

Speaking of Walters, has anyone played Bogey Hills? Thoughts?
Far Oaks is a really fun track, lots of easy birdies. Itās a confidence boost
Stonewolfā¦ woof. Not my favorite
I did my bachelor party at Far Oaks as I had a pretty wide range of skills in my buddies. Had a great time. Perfect for a fun best ball tournament. Sadly donāt play there much any more as we moved west after kids. Play mostly Tapawingo, Pevely, and Aberdeen now.
Anyone gotten on at Sunset CC? My wife and I have some work connections to some members and hoping to get on soon.
I inquired about a membership at Sunset and got to play. Awesome members, wonderful clubhouse atmosphere, but the course is not fun at all imo. There were maybe 3 good holes out there.
Stonewolf stinks. $50-$70 for target golf and bad conditioning. Big pass.
And Iāll ride for normandie just because I really do think it could be an awesome course, just not if Walters is managing it. The layout and routing are what really stand out. Unfortunately the conditioning and management (i.e. pricing) really do outweigh the potential of trying to elicit any sort of enjoyment from a round there.
