[Weekly] Sunday Evening Golf at the NLV Par 3!

vegaseric · 09-07-2007, 11:19 AM

Every Sunday evening at around 7:30-8pm, Little E and I (or just me) play the par 3 golf course in Northtown. (Cheyenne and 5th) For all of you regular golfers, this is a great way to work on the short irons. And if you've never played a round of golf in your life, this is the perfect course to learn on. The golfing atmosphere there is extremely casual and greens fees are around $10.

I'm going to make this a weekly event, so post up in this thread and I'll make sure I schedule enough tee times for that week. This initial foursome will be under "Eric" and I will post the additional foursomes as required. This is a great time to get out of the house and unwind before the start of the work week. Everybody is welcome, so come on out and swing the sticks with SCS!

Location of NLV Golf Course:

North Las Vegas Par 3 Golf Course

I'm gonna see if Les wants to go. When we went to Aliente course, her short game was great. And my finger shouldn't get in the way with the short irons. Of course I'll have to get her some clubs.

I'm going to put together a spare set of clubs in the next few weeks from some old ones I've got. I'll try to get Joyce out as well.

GoFast · 09-07-2007, 11:54 AM

i am in and maybe Rachel. I have an extra set of rights if anyone needs them. honestly i probably have at least 2 extra sets

2upFZ1 · 09-07-2007, 12:07 PM

Im gonna go to the Goodwill I got mine at and see what they have for Les. Most are old and crappy, but mine were brand new. And the clubs are a steal at $1ea.

2upFZ1 · 09-07-2007, 12:07 PM

Unless you got a set you wanna sell Nick.

2upFZ1 · 09-07-2007, 12:14 PM

I do need a putter though. I guess I'll be looking for one for me.

GoFast · 09-07-2007, 12:31 PM

i dont care, ill sell some for a buck a piece. let me just put some together for rachel and the rest are up for grabs.

2upFZ1 · 09-07-2007, 12:46 PM

Coolio. As long as they aren't too beat up and the grips are decent I don't think Les will care.

millertimelv · 09-07-2007, 03:40 PM

I am down... just need to get a hall pass from the wife. What's the longest hole? Just wondering if I need to bring the whole set or just a couple clubs...

LilBitDvl · 09-07-2007, 04:57 PM

Sounds like fun!!! I have only golfed a couple times and had a great time. I really would like to get better at it. I'm in!

#9 is 176 or so... I just bring my irons. Most holes are from 110-120 yds with a few longer/shorter ones as well.

millertimelv · 09-08-2007, 04:50 PM

Krystle and I are both in. See you guys there.

vegaseric · 09-09-2007, 10:11 AM

I've got two tee times: 7:13 and 7:20pm. So far I've got:

Pat
Les
Nick
Rachel
Miller
Krystle
Eric

Anyone else?

GoFast · 09-09-2007, 03:49 PM

just a quick weather update....there is a 30% chance at rain tonight

LilBitDvl · 09-09-2007, 03:55 PM

We've been keeping our eye out on it too. We were just out there and it's windy and heck. We're still up for it. At least then I can have the wind to blame.

GoFast · 09-09-2007, 04:00 PM

exactly, it just makes it a bit more interesting this way. I am game until i see lightning

Chambermaid2sb · 09-09-2007, 05:05 PM

Hey, this sounds like a blast! I'm down for it while im in town on the 23rd. That is, if we're all up to it!

Chad & I used to play alot down in Cali...love those par 3's especially the one with the windmill, (im kidding...really)!!!
Pat, dont let that finger get in the way of your short..oops, i mean long iron!!

Have fun tonight!

Paige

LilBitDvl · 09-09-2007, 08:51 PM

We just got back and it was a blast!!! I think I'm hooked. It's only the second time I have ever played and I had some good hits and some bad ones. It's a great practice course though and I definitely need the practice.

I liked playing on a Sunday night. A little cooler and very peaceful. Can't wait for the next one.

millertimelv · 09-09-2007, 09:32 PM

Fun times... good idea E. Thanks for the invite.

Thanks for coming out! Good times and good company! Next week we'll do it all over again.

2upFZ1 · 09-10-2007, 11:26 AM

Next time we'll let the other 4-some play through. I am sure we held you guys up pretty bad.

You guys did fine...after the first hole.

For real, we didn't have any seriously long waits. It worked out good.

2upFZ1 · 09-11-2007, 06:36 AM

Cool beans. Can't wait for the next one.

vegaseric · 09-13-2007, 10:53 AM

Alright golfers...I've got another 7:13 and 7:20pm set of tee times for this Sunday. I'll have Eric Jr. with me as well. Who's in for this week?

Big E
Little E
Les
Pat
Nick
Rachel
Ryan
Krystle (maybe)

ars0n750 · 09-13-2007, 11:02 AM

I didn't see any rental clubs there.

2upFZ1 · 09-13-2007, 11:48 AM

At the bottom of the price page on the NLV site, it says "Pull cart with clubs $10". I didn't see any for rent, but I didn't ask either. I'd call first. 633-1833

YES! You can rent clubs there! They are $10.

2upFZ1 · 09-13-2007, 12:15 PM

Or if you want some cheap clubs there are a buttload of clubs at Desert Industries thrift store on Craig Rd for $1ea. Most clubs are "experienced" but there are enough decent ones to make a 4-5 club set for that course. Just a thought.

ars0n750 · 09-13-2007, 12:17 PM

Awesome =D thanks yo!!

GoFast · 09-13-2007, 02:16 PM

GoFast · 09-16-2007, 02:14 PM

millertimelv · 09-16-2007, 04:13 PM

I know its last minute but I won't be able to make it tonight! I rolled my ankle yesterday and I really was waiting until the last second to see how it felt. Sorry guys! Have fun without the Millers!
