Never had a bad round at Inglewood. Gets pretty tight on the front when the wind blows. 16 is one of the best par 4s in the city.
It's a great track on a relatively flat piece of land.

Got out to Kananaskis and played Mount Lorette for only my second round this year. Course was in beautiful shape and it was fun. Triples on 1 and 15, but other than that an okay round, shot 88. I need to get out more, my last three rounds were yesterday, June 6th 2020, and August 27th 2019. lol

What the hell, man? It used to feel like daily updates with your golf rounds, sometimes twice in the same day!

Man was going to book a couple foursomes at Kananaskis sometime in August. The course is basically booked the entire month, wow. Guess I won’t be playing there this year.

Look 4 days out from when you want to play. Everything gets fully booked in March but you have to cancel 4 days out to get your money back.
I've played there 3 times this year when I wanted to by just checking the site often.

I played there yesterday and the starters were talking about how accessible the tee sheet is this year because of no Americans playing the course. Almost like a sales pitch to book more times in the future. As was suggested try to book a little closer to the day you want, should probably work.

We just booked a foursome, took one of the first available times we could find (that worked for us) - September 3.

It's never been easier to play Kananaskis if you're flexible. We played yesterday morning at 8:33 and when we finished, there was a 1:57 on Kidd available that we considered taking, but ended up coming home.
Check 2 days out, as their cancellation policy is 48 hours.

Any thoughts?

How was your trip? Really sad about not being able to head home to Calgary this summer and was hoping to swing a trip to Whistler too.
I kind of hope you played the Chateau course. It is beautiful, heavily wooded and you can actually shoot a decent score, particularly on the back nine. Not like NN is slumming though.
Agree with the other poster who praised Big Sky, a nice course and an easy walk.

Dealing with golfers elbow; had a cortizone shot in the off-season that helped but now back golfing and fishing it's acting up again.
Switching from Callaway X-22 Tour irons to TaylorMade M6 Graphite shafts
Does anyone else struggle with golfers elbow and if so, find switching to graphite help?

I used have a problem in my left elbow. (right handed golfer) Hasn't bothered me in years since I stopped gripping the club like I was trying to squeeze the life out of it.

Agreed - I'd say it has something to do with your grip or the grips of the clubs. I had all sorts of issues with blisters, hand/wrist pain in the past few years, but then I got new grips and it all went away. I was just gripping the club too tight.

Anyone know where I should go in town to have my irons extended? They're graphite shafts, so a bit more of a complicated process than it would be with steel, I gather.

Do NOT go to GolfTown for anything other than grips.

There's a good chance that your grips are too small for your hands and you're gripping the clubs too tight. I had similar problem in tennis where my grip was too small and caused tennis elbow. Built up the grip this summer and the problem never returned.
