The Donnybrook: Airports, Parties, Golf. Let's Gooooooo

@davidc and I are booked to play #8 Thursday at 9:20am. Sick.

Also have #5 booked Sunday at 8am. Might cancel that for 36 at MP/PN/SP or something or just get around#5 in 3.5 hours or less and still hit up MP.

Shout-out Pinehurst staff for making this easy.

We tacked on an extra day at the front and back on the resort.

Sick! You may already know this but #5 doesn’t hold a candle to those other three. It’s a fine course in its own right, but nothing memorable. I’m not in the event but may look to meet up with folks at Thistle Dhu or the Cradle on the fringes. Looks like you’re from North Dakota - my mom’s side are too so we’ll have to compare notes.

Things are moving quickly! Might be coming down Tuesday instead and stay near Tobacco Road to get 36 in there on Wednesday.

And currently trending towards cancelling the #5 time and heading for 36 at MP and Pine Needles.

Might tack on #5 on Wednesday potentially. Only $90 and might as well check out as much as I can. Who can say.

Update: now coming Tuesday. Crashing somewhere near TR to play there Wednesday. Then check into PH Wednesday. #8 Thursday. NLU bit Friday/Saturday. Sunday looking like 36 off resort then a other night at PH then still will have time Monday for at least 18 before heading out.

if your still alive and able to swing at that point Southern Pines could be perfect before leaving town

feel it, also if it truly is your last course of this marathon trip please take a cart. 6300 yards or whatever it is will have never felt as long or hilly as it will at Southern Pines.

Cook Out is great after midnight. But it is still very good pre-midnight!
