Course Conditions

[ChrisMacG]

I went out and played Seabrook with my son today. Considering that I live in Seabrook, it was my first time playing there in ages. I was very happy to see progress being made on the course. Here's what I can report:

• Baskets #1 and #9 are still missing (another player on the course told me the city removed #9 to allow access to the areas they needed to clear).
• There's four big mounds of trail & Tee box dirt in the middle of the big field.
• There was a city crew there putting in new trails and Tees today.
• Baskets #2, #3 and #4 have a lot less trees now. #3 and #4 are completely different now with fewer trees.
• The Tee for #3 is gone.

This is still a great course, not as difficult as it used to be though, and the work by the city is promising. I hope that things continue to improve, and I'll be out there playing this course more often now.

It's great to know that the parks department is doing this without any prompting from Birdshot or local players! I'll have to get over there & check it out....see how they're building the boxes, etc. (hope they're better than the old ones, which could be like a pitcher's mound!). Hopefully there will be enough materials to build the alternates as well.

Heads up for Clear Lake area players interested in last minute registration for the Pleasure Island Classic in Port Arthur this Saturday...I'm heading over to Miramar after work today with forms in hand! I'll probably get there around 5:00....anyone wanting to meet me there call me at 832-659-8449.....Billy

They're received prompting from this local player.

Also...how do we change the thumbs down to a thumbs up?

I don't think you can change a Thread title. I just did a quick check and don't see an easy way to do it.

I don't think that Miramar deserves a thumbs up just yet.

Baskets 1 and 9 are back in as of today. Thanks to Crazy Rob for taking the reins on this one to get it done. I had been bringing my portable basket and I'm glad I can leave it at home. Since Daylight savings the park has been seeing a lot more action.

I have only played this course once, and that was a while ago. I need to go check this course out again. I might hit that one, and then head on down to Brooks and make a day of it.
