Brad, you lucky dog!

I had the joy of playing Greywalls last September. Really memorable; and just plain a blast! But even though a 30 handicap, I will make one recommendation for that course. Like a good pitcher, keep the ball low! This course can only be skyball with pinpoint accuracy, because when I hit those greens it BOUNCED! Big!

Fortuantely, and I assume intentionally, many of those greens can be approached from the ground. But you need a line.

I will note again that no one mentions Sweetgrass, about 60 miles south at the Potowatame Indian Casino [Island Resort]. It was an enjoyable course, worth your time to play, and the deals for packages with Greywalls and Timberstone were awesome cheap! You can play Greywalls every part if you want, or mix however. Stay there!

Brad,
Thanks for the offer.  I can't join you on any of these, but am looking forward to Lawsonia together and then seeing Greywalls the next day with Mike D.

Im sure I'll make it up to MQT 2 or 3 more times this summer.  I was unlucky enough to be up there about 3 days before the big guy was open though...

Maybe we'll meet up.

Brad,
   Are your August dates still the same? I will be up in Michigan the week before and would love to get together somehow.

Ed,

If you have an open day when you are up the week before the 7th, let me know, I'll be around and would love to get together.

I played Graywalls last summer.  When I realized what I was doing -- in Marquette for other reasons -- I asked for a tee time and took my clubs on the trip.  Best thing?  A couple of members picked me up and took me around.  The best.  You should be so lucky.

 Hi Ed,
   As a matter of fact, the August date does need to change.  I was going to move it back a week, but I'll see if I can move it up a week instead. 

Cheers,

Excellent. My friend Bob thinks Greywalls is the most fun course he has ever golfed on.

Bump for anyone interested in joining us in August or September up at Greywalls.  It is likely that there will be a contingency from my home club joining us for one of the two remaining trips, but there's always room for more.

Cheers,
Brad
