Yep! On a waiting list for a membership, but looks like we’re not making it in this year. Might not be so bad though with my wife injured and hopefully a multi-week trip this summer.

We may be just doing greens fee rounds again this year, meet you at Le Sorcier?

 

Where are you on a waiting list ? Yes, would love to get out with you at Le Sorcier.

 

I'm debating whether or not to join the mens league at a local course. I don't get out as much as I used to. The last 4-5 years I've gigged with a band the whole summer, every weekend. This summer I have the whole month of July off as the singer is going to Europe for that month. So I should get more golf in this year.

 

No

But my wife loves it. She golfs weekly with girlfriends. Maybe I’ll break down and take it up. I’m newly retired.

 

How cool would it be to have a guitars canada golf tourney day. If there were enough of us within commuting distance.

 

Exactly!

Surely we can get 8 (or more!) people into a couple foursomes somewhere in ottawa here?

Would make for a fun day!

 

If we wanted to play at Hylands, I can probably sort that. It's a nice Military Course, they've hosted the PGA Canada tour before.

Who all is in Ottawa (or is willing to make a trip?)

 

I golf once a year, and am like Happy Gilmore. That might really annoying for people who are actually good.

That said, if you were short a body, and the timing works, I could be talked into it.

 

Several course open in the kw area. I have already gotten 5 rounds in

 

I just read that golfers are at a high risk for developing ALS due to the pesticides used on the courses. Why is everything fun bad for you?

 

You can also have an aneurysm from golfing on golf courses.

 

We were seeing grass last week but had a significant snowfall last weekend. Since we are expecting rain soon, some courses could open quite early in April this year : FORE !

 

I’m in for any and all! My wife and I have played many eastern ON, western QC courses from Cornwall to Perth/Lanark to Heritage/Montebello and now that I am fully retired I have nothing but time! A round at Hylands would be great since I am only a few minutes away.

 

I really enjoy golf and am exactly as good as one should expect from someone who golfs once per year on his Dad's birthday. 😂

If i can fit it into my schedule (which is the real challenge), I'd be up for a round. 👍

 

BTW, if anyone is in need of a starter/beater lefty set, I have a well used, kind of rough shape but quite usable mismatched set that was given to me for my son, a lefty, to use but he has no interest, and is no longer around.

In a pay-it-forward way, if you can use them, they are all yours as they are just sitting in my garage (Ottawa West-Barrhaven). Ratty bag, some tees, balls and possibly a right-hand glove goes with it.
