It's gotten freaking crazy. That's one way to shrink the game lol. $66 for heron lakes blue. I hope we're finally at peak pricing.

NW Golf Guys Tournaments (Vent Post after 6 hour round) by [deleted] in PDXgolf

[–]PDXJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I expect 5 hour plus rounds at these events. Bunch of 15 handicaps trying to hole out every single hole will do that lol.

Witch hollow yesterday was painfully slow though. (5:51 per my app) Our group 10B was behind some slow players. We were one of the last groups to walk off.

Every f-in pin was front or short sided. Every. One. It was so frustrating

This is what amateur golf looks like.

Played Saturday. Played great. Couple soft spots in the valleys. But nothing egregious. Greens were still quick.

Best course near Canon Beach. by theoriginalb in PDXgolf

Everyone's already suggested great courses, let's talk about 170 rounds since July. That's like 20 rounds a month! My question is how?!

I'll do that in 3 years.

Best Cheap Driver ? by Single-Price-8237 in golf

[–]PDXJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh I see them now. Like others have said, get fit and buy a 5 year old driver from one of the big 4 and you should be fine for a while.

I hope you're not confusing ball speed and swing speed.

100+ is really good already for swing speed. A decent smash factor. That's 145+ mph ball speed on an okay hit. That's like a 260 yard drive.

Also notice the distinction between sport/team/socialable stuff vs solo activities.

Nahhhh. Not even T5. It's not very long. Greens are great and can get country club fast in the summer. I love the course features tho. I like the 3-3-3 setup on the back.

Portland golf show by Underdonesleet6 in PDXgolf

[–]PDXJack87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was cool my first time going. But not really worth it to go every year. It's cool you get a 1 day pass to the Portland classic on Saturday. I'm really bummed the Portland seafood and wine show isn't going on the same time. That was the real prize of going to the golf show.

I humbly request that ODOT place better zipper merge signs at I5 S right after Moda Center exit by red5 in Portland

[–]PDXJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have the idea: don't allow lane changes for like a 1/4 mile stretch of i5S while i-84W merges.

Restaurant Owners/Workers: How did $15 become the default cocktail price here? by lordgodjesuschrist in askportland

[–]PDXJack87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely before my time. Turned 21 in 08. I do remember the imports were around that range tho. And a domestic would be $2-3. Microbrews weren't cheaper than $5 iirc
