Can your friendly MN refugees join. Been dying to get out to sand valley.
Cool, Iāve been trying to get to Sand Valley.
Great idea on Sand Valley. Couldnāt be more central part of the state.
Iām in as well!
Speaking of the Ryder Cup, anyone else volunteering? Iāll be in the Merch Tent a few days.
Absolutely! Iāve only played Sand Valley - havenāt gotten to Mammoth Dunes yet. Pretty excited to get there again.
I tried, but didnāt get selected. Iām torn on going to the Ryder Cup. On one hand, itās the Ryder Cup, and who knows when it will be back. On the other hand, it was tough to see much of what was going on at Whistling Straits during the PGA. I feel like youād barely see anything when thereās four groups out on the course.
I agree, but Iām still going on Sundayā¦just for the experience.
Now that the ground is white, this new indoor/outdoor place called Rangetime (at Ives Grove GC) has opened just in time: https://journaltimes.com/business/local/year-round-driving-range-owned-by-tony-romo-s-dad/article_dfe82d40-f884-5441-86a5-ad93b324d866.html
If anyone wants to meet up to hit and/or play a round on the simulator, Iām in. Also in for spring 2020 at Sand Valley before heading to Scotland May 19!

Moved back to WI after living in Indiana for a couple years. I live very close to Lawsonia and am a member at Mascoutin. Would love to meet up once this awful white stuff goes away!!
Sounds great! The Green Lake area would be a great place to meet up. I just played Lawsonia for the first time this year - it was pretty amazing. Iāve played Mascoutin quite a bit, and I really love the old nines (white and red I think?).
Agreed on the white stuffā¦ it all happened far too quickly this year.

Lawsonia might be my favorite course in the state. Gets better each time I play it! Having a group out there would be incredible.

Hey folks! Just moved back to Wisconsin after a 3.5 stint with our neighbors to the west (lovely people, I must say.) Currently in SE Wisconsin and looking forward to playing some new tracks next season!
You should have never left MN! Let me know if you come back otherwise hopefully i can get out to WI for a meet up.

Hey all - checking back in here as well. Our early winter was a kick in the face. Looking at planning a winter golf trip.
Would welcome a āget togetherā at Lawsonia (or elsewhere) to kick off the season in April/May.

Count me in for a āget togetherā at Lawsonia. I was meaning to make it up there for the first time this summer but never found the time.
I would most definitely be in for a meet up in the spring. What do you fine folks do fromā¦now until then? I am in the Tosa/Brookfield/Falls area and recently tried thisā¦

It was nothing extraordinary, but fine enough for some swings.
Over here in Madison we have heated bays at Vitense. During the winter it isnāt too crowded, but the first hint of spring turns that place into a madhouse until the courses open.

Iām up in Wausau. Thereās a sports bar with some simulators opening up soon, which will be nice. Last year I decided to lean into winter and started curling. Itās a lot of fun and I can drink beer while doing it. A torn Achilles ended my basketball career, so it was nice to have a winter sport again (although how I play it itās probably more of an activity).
The Green Bay Area has gotten simulator crazy the last couple of years.
My favorite local place is an incredibly good deal. They just upgraded to Trackman this year, and itās BYOB encouraged. Played Sebonack for league tonight.
Itās not as good as being outside (obvs), but itās a nice night out in the dark of winter.
