Kyle will chime in soon as a Illinois and Houston man.

I'm here Tiger (we need to get together again soon - we can play golf or drink and discuss less than perfect football seasons).  It's good to see all of the others adding their name to the list as well.  Steve and I have discussed having a TX GCA event sometime sooner than later.  It's in the works right now and this is going to help get us a list of possible local attendees.  Judging by the people from Houston and those who I have recently spent time with here in Dallas I think we could have a hell of a good time.  Further details will follow on a date to be named later  ;).

I am a longtime lurker and occasional poster here in Trophy Club, TX.  Have played in the Dixie Cup and would be happy to join a group of fellow Texas GCA'ers.
Count me in.

It's a given that mighty Rawls would have to included in any discussion of venues (this year or the next). My excuse for driving 7-1/2 hours to see it has now been granted.

Steve I went to Cy-Falls and I can tell you that when I was in high school we would go to Klein because they were famous for their female talent.

BTW, I'm in for an outing and I'm sure High Meadow Ranch could host a great outing, with Casey (OBQ) as our host things will be wonderful!!!

Is Pine Dunes as a home venue too remote?

Or in D/FW, how about TangleRidge, Tierra Verde, and maybe toss Cedar Crest in as a faux-classical?

Jay,

Nobody seems to really be getting into the idea of an outing, I see lots of tire kicking. You can probably get from Pines Dunes to Dallas in about 2 and a half hours. I would say quicker but I-45 from around Ennis to Dallas is a haven for cops.

Jay,

    Sam's right, Texas DPS is strong in that corridor. Hwy 175 through Athens, Mabank, and Seagoville will get you to Dallas in around 2hrs.
