I'll check to see if my wife's off.

I'd throw in Dobson ranch to the mix,  $34 to walk $48 to ride

Aguila which if no one has the city card, I believe you still get a free round day of purchase, so that's $50, but I think most of the guys here have the card with an exception of one or two haha.



Blake do you have the ob card still?

Isn't it really difficult to get tee times at dobson?

And I sort of have an OB card.  I have the ASU Karsten card that gets me discounts at other OB sports facilities.

I'm on-call that day can't make it...Enjoy Sam

[natural_one]

Count me in... if all goes well, I'll have a 2 week old baby boy with a pretty cool wife who will hopefully let me out for a couple hours

[teejaywhy]

IN

Dobson is a challenge to get more than one or two tee times.  They do online booking now, but max 14 days in advance.

I have the PHX city card and an OB card (Longbow).

Yeah I know Dobson is really tough to get groups out there.  I'd like to play southern dunes if everyone is ok with that.  You got a month to save up ha!

Thanks! My name is Tyler.... I've only really personally met Mark/forelife but look forward to meeting more of you guys.

Assuming all goes well for me and I can make it, I'll be looking to carpool from Peoria and split some gas $ if it ends up really being Southern Dunes. peace!

I live in Phoenix and would be down for carpool.  Always interested in saving some coin.  Especially since my SUV gets 16 mpg haha.

[ckguy914]

A little pricy for Southern Dunes.  If I am going to pay that much, how about We Ko Pa?  Anyone have the We Ko Card?

[fore_life]

Agreed, a little too much $$

Spoke with my wife, she might be out of town but I'll try to find a sitter if we do it somewhere like Papago or Aguila.

Hope I can make it, I'll have new clubs I'll be dying to test out!

Ordered the i20's today, 4-U
Also picked up a new in plastic 13.5superfast txxxxx tp 2.0 in the wrapper for an absolute steal, shafting it up with a tour issue ust vts 7x red I'm picking up tomorrow from proclubs.

All in that club is costing me about $100 haha

Also, see my avatar for additional thoughts haha

[Jay4]

Nice setup Mark, now I got to get use to looking over at your bag and not seeing blades in there...

Trust me man, same here. But the i20's are so easy to hit that it doesn't see fair . You know I don't play or practice as much as I used to so any help I can get, I will quickly take haha.

[One_Putt_Blunder]

I am down for whatever, would like to keep the cost down as well. Wekopa is 90 on the wekopass right now, which might be a bit much for most incl me

[fore_life]

I'll call Aguila and see if you still get a free round with the card

[teejaywhy]

I'll go with what the group decides, but not real keen on paying $80-90.   I start to squeek if it's much over $65, ha ha.

I just emailed the guy you told me to email yesterday Mark for Papago.  I'll let you know what he says.

[Olson12]

Hey Guys.  I just got an Email from the GM at Papago.  He is going to try and get us all the card holder price.  I need not know who all has the City Of Phoenix Golf Card or who plans to have one by Feb 10th.  It looks like this is the course we will be playing at if they can get us the card price for everyone.  So PM me or post here if you have the card or not.

[jayzona]

Blake ....thanks for taking the reins on this one......Yes I have the city card and yes I am in for Papago 2/10.....here's a suggestion, since it could be a cold MFer out there lets try and get tee times after 10-11 ????

While your at it ask the GM for free range balls to....haha!

The Tee time will be around 11 O'clock.  I will update the original post.  Thanks Jay!


Edit:  Just got this email.  Looks like we are all set on course and time.

Blake,

I have you all set for 16 players at 11:06,11:15, 11:24, and 11:33.  Everyone will be responsible for the city card rate of $49 riding and $37 walking plus 9.3%tax.  

Thanks,

JM

Your name is Calvin right?

[natural_one]

voted NO...I dont have a card.  I'd buy one if its the same price as a card holder round and the first round is free. $50 ish.

Im definitely game with staying away from $80-$90.  Cheaper the better, apparently diapers aren't free....and apparently babies go through them like they're free.  We shall see!

From what I can tell everyone is getting the card rate regardless.  Papago isn't managed by the city so they aren't running the promo where you buy the card and get a free round.  But for now there is no need to buy a card.
