Greenlake pitch n putt, bruh.

I don't know if he still does this, but Fred Couples used to pawn fools at his tournament at Jefferson with just a seven-iron and a putter.

Until Tequilla can do that I will not be impressed by his back nine story time tour.

Perhaps for shits and giggles one day this summer I'll go play Jefferson with a 7 iron and putter see what I shoot ...

Any over/under thoughts on the number?

The Whistler courses are okay, Chateau Whistler is great fun, Nickalus North is pretty flat but tough putting, I thought the Whistler GC was meh. Have never lost more balls in a single round ever than I did on Big Sky.

Serious question. How much will this trip cost? I have never played much golf (poor and I prefer cocaine to looking for lost balls) but I do know golf is a pretty pricey deal. Aren't some top courses like a grand a round? Anyway, to go play like 25 high end courses I would assume it would cost a mint. No?

I'm old rich and white Swaye ... the most expensive courses on the top 100 list run about $500 - I'm not playing anything like that - most expensive course is likely Erin Hills

On average if you assume $100 a day for golf and $100 per night for lodging you probably get close. There are some nights where I'm staying with friends/family, days I'm not playing, and a lot of my stuff at Whistler is being covered by my friends. You can also cut down the price a little bit by bundling room/golf together at a lot of these places - which I'm doing.

You should spend most of your time around the UO. It's now a golfing school.

100 bucks a day is a lot less than I thought golf cost. I played whacked at balls and got shitfaced a few times in the military (Squadron would knock off early on a Friday and go out to the course or whatever) and even on base at military courses it was around 35 bucks a round (and this was a decade or more ago) so I figured at a serious course with no huge discounts it would be a few hundreds bucks. Good info.
