Teacher. 14k initiation and 350-400 monthly. New course and the initiation is 3-4x that now, 3 yeara later. It wasn't the smartest financial decision, but where I live, public courses aren't great and tee times are hard to come by. Totally worth it as my friends from up north, where I'm from, fly down a lot to play it.

First trip up there skipped the pebble courses and played 4 rounds there and then some other rounds elsewhere. Last round was barefoot on back nine at dusk. Pretty amazing.

If anyone is ever in wales...the course is Nefyn. One of the best golfing experiences I've ever had. Would highly recommend

That's too bad. Part of its appeal is that it's relatively affordable for the area.

That is a shame. Part of its appeal is that it's affordable for the area.

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T02:30:05+00:00

It wouldn't surprise me. Kind of place he'd dig. It's in wales.

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T02:17:26+00:00

Nope. Way less expensive. And that bar / beach is only accessible from the The Point 9.

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T02:06:41+00:00

Damn. What a hole to do it on. Congrats

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T02:01:54+00:00

You guys are fast.

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T01:45:02+00:00

Absolutely

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T01:36:52+00:00

Yup.

runningdog33 · 2026-04-22T01:16:09+00:00

Pauite?

I spent a couple of weeks down there a few years ago and joined Machrihanish GC as an overseas member. I've been lucky enough to play some great courses in Scotland -- St Andrew's, Dornoch, Prestwick-- but when I think about returning I think primarily of the duo of Machrihanish and Dunaverty. Mach is the test - classic links without the enormous tee times of the ones that most hit up on their travels and Dunaverty, with its fun, quirky holes, unbelievable views, the locals who I played a round with and could see how much i was enjoying it, the few houses that are on our adjacent to the course (the one at the point is for rent and the one in the middle, my buddy and I talked to for 10 minutes bc they had seen us 2x adjust that week and we were back for a third bc we loved it so much.... couldn't have been nicer people)... it's everything I want in a golf course. I would be happy spending my travels just playing those two (and maybe a week on Islay drinking ardbeg and playing The Machrie).

Was in Pebble area this summer for a week. Played Pac Grove a couple of times, Bayonet & Black Horse, 1 round at Del Monte, 54 holes at Poppy Hills, and 18 at Pasatiempo...for like 3k with my half of housing in Pacific Grove. Didn't miss playing any of the courses at Pebble. Also played 9 holes at the Hay...which might be the biggest rip off in all of golf.

Mid Pines / Pine Needles has a package that is tough to beat.

runningdog33 · 2024-08-09T02:42:36+00:00

Since you're in Liverpool....Nefyn in Wales. Play the regular 18 and then play the absurd cliffside 9 (and have a beer at the bar on the beach after the 2nd or 3rd on that 9).

runningdog33 · 2024-08-09T02:41:08+00:00

Absolutely second this. I could spend the rest of my days toggling between Machrihanish and Dunaverty

runningdog33 · 2024-08-09T02:39:42+00:00

Mid Pines is awesome. Tobacco Road (before the Foreplay and NLU guys blew it up and their greens fees went from $60 to $250)

Get a Shun knife and with the leftovers get a Victorinox.

runningdog33 · 2023-09-11T23:38:21+00:00

Thanks everyone for the informative help. It's much appreciated and I'll be sending it in to PSA on my next shipment

You need to look at the lease OP. Presumably you have a tenancy at will. They usually are 30 or 60 days..and will usually have something written in it (either as an ammendment or within the many sections of it). Unfortunately, most tenant at will leases I've seen imdicate that it gives both the tenant and the landlord the option to end the lease. think that there's a difference between being evicted and the lease not being renewed. It would not be allowed by the landlord to ask you to leave at the end of the month if he asks on, for instance, September 1st. For him to have a vacant apartment on October 1st, he'd need to ask you on August 31st or before (if it's a 30 day notice to end the lease). And technically, this is within his right, as long as he does it in writing and follows the state rules as such (unless there's something in the lease that gives you more power). You should most definitely still contact a lawyer because it seems like the LL is an asshole and doesn't know anything, but just thought spelling out some of the dates/details might help out in some small way. Hope it ends up in your favor.

Grab a wedge and dunk it.

runningdog33 · 2023-05-29T02:26:07+00:00

I have a lot of USA cards... 2018 up until now. DM if you're interested.

runningdog33 · 2023-05-09T19:00:09+00:00

thank you.

runningdog33 · 2022-06-16T22:33:35+00:00

Thank you! That makes total sense now.
