would be an interesting match for baytree, if YOU play from gold or black.

If you choose to play from the blues at baytree, well need to shave 3 strokes off the 50, or I play at The Creeks, link above.

Note that Prairie Creek is the toughest public course in the state though, so I fully expect to shoot in the high 70s. Advantage to you Id say

I would much RATHER play from the Blues, obviously, but the Gold's are almost a perfect match with the course you suggested:

Baytree Gold: 6557 yards, 129 slope, 71.6 USGA rating
Prarie Creek White: 6574 yards, 129 slope, 72.9 USGA rating

I dunno.... I'm tempted to give up the 3 strokes now and play from the blues

Prarie Creek sounds nice - great prices too. Must be nice.

I cant think of the Hustling Pool movie, but it was fairly decent

At the end the guy offers his opponent (a pro) who's faced with a very tough game winning shot ( a certain amount of money) for his shot.

Im being kind of vague because I dont wanna give it away -- but anyone know what Im talking about

Looking over the course now, this would be an EXTREMELY difficult hole for me to play from Gold:


Then again, I might not clear it from the Blues either. I may have to "go around" (follow the cart path) which is an interesting strategy for a Par 3

I forgot about this hole too (agai:


There is quite a bit of garbage to clear from that tee box - and this time, there is no way around. No worries.

Another problem hole for me:


Forgot about this one too. HUGE problem:


More holes where I iwll need a decent drive:



The final hole is gonna be brutal too (it's much worse than it looks):


All in all, Baytree is going to be a tough course for me, but I still think this will be fun, so I'm game if you are

Its up to you, my offer is 50 shots from gold or 47 from blue Your pick.

And yeah, the only reason I dont play Prairie Creek as often as I used to is because its a ways away (hour drive, thats a bit much for playing 3 times a week). The people are really nice, and old Hogan Rountree is a character. Oldest teaching pro in US that still gives lessons, VERY good at what he does. He taught Davis Love II how to play golf!!! (yes, thats the second, not the third)

Dont underestimate this course though, if you dont bring a perfect driving game, you lose a ball a hole, missing a fairway = deep woods.
