Recently had a lesson with Ryan after seeing this. 10/10 would recommend. Will be going back for many more.

Just booked 2 spots at Fox Creek (Edwardsville) on Sunday @ 10:50.
55 for the high, would be glad to have others join in.

Anyone thinking about going to the golf expo this weekend? I’m kind of thinking about coming just for the free shit they are offering. Is it worth it?

In my experience, No. Not remotely worth it. But I also realize I have a skewed view, being in the business.

I didn’t want to be a negative Nancy…. But it’s kinda gross, so 100% agree with you.

IF you wanted a chance to hit some new mizzys or pings into a net, then have at it. But the lines usually suck and any time I’ve gone it’s felt like a tremendous waste of time. I even won the virtual closest to the pin comp one year.

Ditto what they both said. I brought my son a few years ago with high hopes, but it’s mostly a giant garage sale.

If you are looking to book a golf trip somewhere within a 200 mile radius or want to make an impulse buy of some leaf gutter covers (yep they got a booth there too) then you’ll love it.

But otherwise it’s just hitting shots into a net so I found it to be rather blah.

I had thought about going to check out the sales deals but I figure patience and TSR is a better bet.

Thanks all, made the decision pretty easy to not go.

Will they accept foot pics at the golf expo?

It’s St Charles County, so probably?

Put a gun between your feet and it’s guaranteed.

If they wanna make a sale, they gotta see the feet.

I battled the wind out at Normandie this afternoon and couldn’t believe how different it looked from when I was last there a few weeks ago. This is looking back towards the tee from the green on 11.

Is the new move to blow driver left on 11?

2 Likes

That’s always been the move. Try and hit the lower riser up the hill. Shank it into the right trees. 70 yards left, blade it over the green. Chip, 2 putts and pick up once the 2nd putt comes back to your feet.

Many thanks to @Nickygifts for documenting my first ace. Was a delightful day for golf.
