Shoutout to my opponent for one-putting 7 of the last 9 holes to close my 3up lead…but the bag delivered me a victory 1up on the final hole.
Looking forward to a Refuge round tomorrow, then back to warmer weather (bag is holding up REALLY well @alexshreff, great job)
Just signed up for a week in March when I’ll be in Costa Rica…would love to take her out for the first Central American excursion. We’re going worldwide!!!
Depending on how the timing works, it might be getting a round in another global location over Christmas. Not sure who has it after me at this point, though, and when they need it. I think I’m the last in 2019?
@BeenMacKenzied current plan is to mail it to you the first week of January. would that work?
Of course, assuming no one else signs up for Jan or Feb. I’m not looking to carry it until mid-March, so would hate for it to gather dust in my basement.
Yeah, I think the current plan is I’m bringing it to ATL-Sweetens for other folks (@gatorz7888 for sure and @alexshreff for some sweet photos), bringing it back to DC where I can use it either there or abroad, then it goes to @BeenMacKenzied for his February trip to New Zealand, he sends it to you for Costa Rica, and then you send it to whoever is taking it to NLU Scotland. Bag definitely going global haha.
Sounds good. It can make the trip down to an event @GremlinGolfer is organizing Jan26th to meet some more refugees. I’ll do my best to get it out on a few more NorCal venues as well. Maybe with @leric90 and/or @Mack.
One last night in Chicago before it heads east to @RobertHunter
Time to crack open this little beauty and see what stories are inside…
The bag is on it’s way to the ATL, just here to thank @alexshreff for the idea and execution, for everyone that has carried the bag to this point, and those of you/us that will carry it in the future.
This is a special community with some truly special people, and I’m so honored to be among those that represent it.
No pressure @RobertHunter, but the bag is on a winning streak…crack on, brother
Can’t wait to reunite with her in Atlanta. Great pictures, glad you enjoyed it!
And now that I’ve updated the Google Doc, a PSA for those of you lurking on this thread.
The entire month of January is open. The bag is in really good condition, so anyone that might be thinking about playing golf in January should put their name down on the list. You don’t have to be a scratch player, nor do you need to belong to a country club to carry it. Just have a passion for golf and an appreciation for good stories 
For a game that generally holds the most exclusive things about it in the highest regard, this is one of the most inclusive things you could ever be a part of.
Not to mention…the journal alone is SO worth it.
To keep it moving, I would be happy to have her out here in AZ in January. I know she took a brief tour with @brett, but happy to give her a much needed warm-up.
On that note - eventually we’re going into a situation where the bag doesn’t have someone signed up to carry it next.
If this happens when you are the holder - do your best to find someone locally to get out and play with/hand it off in person. The preferred method is to pass it off to another Refugee and encourage getting out to play.
If there’s no chance of that happening, just simply post here saying you have it and it’s up for grabs to whoever wants it next. You don’t need to be going to play some super interesting course to carry it…any and all are welcome to just take it out whenever and wherever they’d like.
So I hope no one feels pressure, and there’s no pressure to keep the schedule constantly full either.
@GremlinGolfer I know you just had it but maybe the bag should make a Frigid Flask appearance?
Currently in transit to ATL
All of January you say? Enough time for it to get down to Australia and back perhaps… 
Agree. I thought it was coming to me potentially in time to take it down for that event.
It’ll be with me in that hemisphere the last week of December. Not sure how much the shipping costs might change because of that…
