Meetup at the Travis Invitational this weekend at Garden City

[Jay Flemma]

Let's all meet up at High Noon on the 13th tee on Friday.

I wrote this piece for the tournament on Cybergolf.  It's more meant for people who never heard of Travis, GCGC, or the tournament, but there are some fine quotes from Pat Mucci, Doak's Confidential Guide, and Jens Roderberg.  As usual, Ran's work on the course and Travis was indispensable.

Jay,

GCGC is getting faster and firmer with each day.

Unfortunately, it appears that the weather won't cooperate as the forecast calls for rain Friday, Sat and Sun.

The greens are rolling very true, the rough is in its usual spring form and the wide fairways are producing tight lies.

I believe that the Superintendent, Dave Pugh and President and former Green Chairman, Tom Sullivan, who also happens to be a good golfer, all "get it" and are striving for optimal conditions.

The golf course is not only a joy to play, but, a joy to walk.

I haven't formalized my schedule yet, but, I'd like to meet you on Friday, Sat or Sun.

Do you need to purchase tickets for the event?

Terrific article, Jay.  Thanks for the link.

I think its free to the public, so bring the family.

Jay,

I'm not so sure about that.

You'd better check with the club first.
