Not a bad course in an old-timey sort of way. Expand I actually worked at Easton CC when I was in college... it’s a nice little course... pine oaks, which is the 9 hole course and joe and Leigh’s isn’t bad either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Shot an 89 to finish 2 strokes back in my flight. Other than a disastrous 9 on the 6th hole, I played ok. Going into the tournament with zero expectations certainly helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 6 players tied for the lead at -9. Should be an interesting final round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 What a final round by Morikawa. This is only his second major. Pretty fun final round overall. I live it when they have majors on the west coast. You get to watch more in tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I liked Easton CC. Joe & Leigh's is a good little golf shop. Especially for used clubs. The course though.......sucks. lol.

Challenging but nothing stupid like a US Open. Nobody lost it, Colin just went after it and won it. Chipped it in on 14 and then the drive on 16 was an all timer. If there were fans...the place would have erupted. There was a point where like 10 players were -10 and -9...it was anyone’s trophy to win. But Colin took it. Especially when he hadn’t tried to drive 16 over the first 3 rounds... It was a calculated aggressive call. Hats off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amarshall Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Lake of isles today in Connecticut. The north course. Just wow. They recommended on 6 handicap or lower play the golds.

Blind tee shot followed by a blind approach. Other than that, big fan. The "Stay & Play" package is worth every penny as you basically pay for price of hotel room and get a round of golf thrown in.

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Played 9 at pine oaks in Easton on Sunday before the rain moved in.... course was in rough shape.... everything was fried to a crisp.
