Bell, I have some friends going to Wasiota next week for 2 days. Any words of wisdom that I can pass along?

I play there several times a week. The course is in great shape and very scenic and beautiful right now, and because of the tourist business at the state park (and the golf packages) it is getting a lot of play. In the past two weeks large groups from Louisville and Cincinnati have visited on the golf packages, and all seemed to have really enjoyed their stay.

Wasiota has some of the best greens in the state imo, and their course maintaince people do a great job.

 

But Bell40 is correct in his assessment. Water comes into play on nearly every hole. Two par 5's have water on both sides of the fairway....and that can be scary (it makes me want to "guide" the ball, which is a no-no.) But if you play smart (something I don't always do), and don't take too many risky chances, yo can shoot a score to your handicap, and have a good time.

Wasiota Winds is a very nice course! The management there is good!

OK. I came out there yesterday evening and saw a guy I didnt really know. I will be back in a couple of weeks to play in the Mtn. Laurel more than likely. Maybe I'll meet you there.

I'll be there. Hope to meet you.

I may play in it myself. I've talked about 5 guys from by old course into making the 75 mile trip to play in it.

Did you play in the tournament?

I enjoyed the tournament, but didn't play very well. Oh well... maybe next year.

But I played with a bunch of super individuals and had fun. That's what it's all about anyway, as far as I'm concerned.

I didn't get to play. I had my girlfriend down with me for the weekend and decided not to play. I really wanted to play, but figured it was best that I didnt. I will be down there just about all summer it looks like, working in the pro shop. Kind of a late development that happened over the last week or two, so maybe I will be meeting you soon. I should start by the end of this week or first of next week. See ya around.
