Playing Idlewild April 4th, who wants to play

[SigmaChris]

Zud00 is coming in from Indiana next weekend. We are playing Idlewild and Lincoln Ridge (formerly Banklick). Does anyone else from here want to meet up? I am picking Zud up from downtown Cincy at 9.15, swinging by Disc N Dat for some new toys. I imagine we will be at Idlewild at 10.30ish teeing off at 11.00.

Afterward we are playing Lincoln, so maybe 2.30 / 3.00 to be teeing off there.

Let me know if you are interested...neither Zud or I have played either courses before so an experienced guide would be nice to have. Others who haven't played are welcome to of course.

Cheers,
Chris

I got my wife to take our 4 and 1 year old. My selling point was its either DG for free or ball golf for $60. She doesn't know about the Disc N Dat stop though...good luck, I hope you can join us.

 

[zud00]

Hope you can make it Hamilton. I'm so pumped!!!

 

[Hamilton]

She's taking time to think about it but I think I can talk her into it...I have played idlewild so at least I can help in that regard

hmmmm these courses are like far from northern indiana aren't they? lol...

 

[mmyersdisc]

nvm its in KY, that is gonna take like 5 hours to get to from here..no thanks haha!

 

[zud00]

My wife is in a conference for work all day in Cinci so she's letting me loose to play.

But well worth the trip.

 

[zud00]

Which was your favorite discflinger? Idlewild, Lincoln Ridge (Banklick), or Mt. Airy?

 

[SigmaChris]

OK, so Zud actually gets into town sooner and he wants to start sooner. If I pick him up at 8.00, we can warm up and be teeing off at 9.00. Disc N Dat doesn't open until 10.00, so we can hit that on our lunch break over to Lincoln / Banklick. Figure teeing off at 1.00ish at Banklick.

Hamilton, what is your plan? Does the earlier start time help or hinder you?

 

[Hamilton]

That helps me...trying to get a definite word this afternoon...the earlier i can be done the better...i just wonder if the dew will be a hindrance, starting not long after sunrise...

Just bring a hand towel or golf towel to keep your hands and discs dry.

 

[zud00]

Sounds good! Dew will provide for some great skip shots! I've got a few towels, I will probably wash them before we play.

That is fine...check your PM box.

If you don't mind a newbie I may join in depending on whats happening. Wife is going out of town and I got a couple of teenagers so i could do idlewild but probably not Lincoln ridge. I know Idlewild really well because we walk it all the time and play it every once in a while. I mainly do boone right now because idlewild can be frustrating for a newb like me. I also live in the burlington area(about 5 mins from idlewild) so if you need any directions or whatever let me know.
