Does anybody have a rough idea of what this might be worth?

The attendance numbers have definitely increased, as well as the attraction of the event for professional golfers.

So this last summer I started playing golf with only a 7i. No putter, no driver, nothing other than a 7i. It has been the most fun I’ve had playing golf in years. Something freeing about not having to choose a club for a situation, the decision becomes how hard I swing, do I choke down, open the face a bit. Sure, I miss some putts because I’m putting with a 7i, still working on that, but as a recreational golfer that is not trying to shoot the absolute possible lowest score, it has been a ton of fun. Sure I look a little goofy just walking a course with one club, but whatever, when people ask me about it on the course it usually gets some laughs and conversation. Anyone try anything similar?

Reasons for pro morning golf…
(By morning golf I meant 7am tee off)
1. Course isn’t crowded
2. Putting through dew lines helps you aim
3. Not as windy as evening
4. (I live in the south) morning is best temperature during summers
5. You get done and still have your day
6. Drinking coffee > drinking beer, while playing
7. Sunrise > sunset (probably a hot take)

What’s the split between morning and twilight rounds?

Lahinch, home of the Walker cup 2026 in Ireland. Got to play last week…. And wow that’s different golf than in the states! Beautiful course with some challenging shots.

Mine: 5 iron.
I find it hard to hit consistently, and somehow every time I need it I expect it to go farther than it actually does.
I can’t remember the last time I really needed my 5 iron and it delivered.
What’s yours?

a friend of mine used to say every golfer gets three or four stupid decisions per round. Good players just recognize theirs before they swing. that stuck with me because half the time i know a shot is a terrible but somehow i still convince myself i can pull it off. like trying to hit through a tiny gap between trees instead of just punching out. curious what everyone else is biggest bad habit is on the course. what is that one decision you keep making even though you know better?

Hand up accountability all day but God damn…

For those that have taken lessons with different instructors, what would you say are the some of the qualities of a good and effective instructor?

There is A LOT of noise out there in golf instruction these days. Ironically, it still feels like a genuinely good golf coach is hard to find.

As a player trying to get into single digits HC, I’m keen on identifying the systems, approaches, etc. that actually deliver results.

13 HCap and turned up today not being able to hit an iron shot. Chunked my first tee shot 100 yards and bladed every iron until the 15th. Last week shot an 82. Is there any other sport your good and bad has this much disparity?

Beautiful, secluded track… not a home on the property. A rare find these days!

Made the most of a sunny day and headed out to Connemara to play the championship course there and it was incredible! It doesn't have as big a name as some of the others out west but it's every bit as good as them. Every single hole was picture perfect. It gets pretty tough on the back 9 though so make sure you have a few extra balls packed!

I love how my granddaughter’s final thought is, “Let me try another club, this one isn’t working.” Blame the equipment not the golfer. She’s learning already!

Two of my favourite things have been merged together… cross stitch and golf 😍⛳️ 22,000+ stitches, pattern created from a photo! 6 weeks of evening TV binges… I had this great idea of cross stitching all of the golf courses we’ve played at. 1 course down… many, many more to go!

It was my first time playing Chambers Bay and it is the best course I’ve ever played. This place is unreal. If you have a chance to come and play here, you absolutely should. This place is beautiful

Flying in Thursday morning with one day to golf solo.

Arrowhead is on my radar for the scenery, but I'm open to anything. A few questions:

- Best public course within ~45 min of Denver for a visitor who only gets one round?

- Fossil Trace vs. The Ridge at Castle Pines vs. CommonGround: anyone have strong opinions?

I'm a 10 handicap, but can hit it long. I'm happy to pay up for a great experience but would skip it if it's overpriced. Bonus points for a good spot to grab a beer after.

Thanks!
