I think its safe to assume that, seeing how entry fees are per team.

I'm surprised you can infer any tone with your eyes.

Dan, on the other hand, yes there's certainly something to infer with his posts.

byop.  I doubt I will play.  No reason to bring down somebody else's  game.  I'll see you guys for random draw one of these days.  Have a fun tourny.

If somebody wants to play and doesn't have high expectations, I'd love to play.  If that comes to pass, I will be glad to drive any of the local boys, or girls, up to the Forest City.

Will be the first time I have played any Rockford courses... But anyway I'll be playing with Mark Andrews..  looking forward to it as I always play my best golf the first time I play a course.

If anyone has some good tips or local routes.. please post them for me...


see ya there.


Having problems finding course info anywhere...  The link on the IL course directory on this site is no good..  Pics or hole discriptions would be nice if anyone could share..

TY in advance.

what direction you coming from?
Title: Rockford's Artic Blast 12
Post by: Chainmeister on February 03, 2005, 07:21:06 AM
Shawn

You are coming from Kenosha.  Right?  If so, I suggest 50 west towards Lake Geneva.  then 67 south and southwest and then west (it turns a lot) to 140 going south.  You are near Beloit at this point.  150 turns into 76 in Illinois.  Go south on this until you hit Riverside.  You go west on Riverside about 10-15 miles.  You go through Loves Park and the northern part of Rockford.  Riverside will turn south and Anna Page is on the west side of the road just after you start going south and the name of the road changes to Springfield.

Alt route, take 50 to Rte 12.  North on 12 until you hit I43.  Take this southeast until you hit 90 .  I90 south to Riverside and then the same directions as above--west on Riverside.  Longer but likely quicker.

I've played the course a number of times but would defer to Whofarted regarding course descriptions.

I could be wrong but I think Shawn was looking for tips or local routes to the baskets not the course.

I took this route when they were using the alt baskets last summer :P Hey, Shawn can get to the course, just grip it and rip it, or as Michler says, "ready golf." I think I flunked reading comprehension in skul. :unsure:

Shawn, I'll give you the low down during a round this week or next week on all the holes if you want.  It would be too long to type out.

it sounds like a few of you are coming over, good to hear!  i dont think i'll be playing it unfortunattly, but i will be hanging around after my class gets out to help with anything needed.

for those that havent played here or a havent been here in a while i'll put up some pictures of the course.  i just hope they do it justice - a nice size group of us were playing yesterday; the sun was out, it was warm, and the park was looking lovely - i just hope i can capture all that in a picture so you folks can see for yourself.

PFC ice bowl last weekend... was the only info that i could find.  How come this event was not posted or publicized that well?  I recall in the past that this event was huge and posted at just about every course in WI and IL..  If it was not for this site and a few friends telling me about it I would have never known..

good night

Anyone looking for a partner for tomorrow? I'm waiting to hear from someone here, but I don't know if they're going to play for sure.
Title: Rockford's Artic Blast 12
Post by: whofarted on February 11, 2005, 02:18:12 PM
no idea on the turnout, my guess is around 55.   serg, chances are if you show up early you can get a partner.  it sounds kinda iffy but its worked for a lot of people in the past.

hope to see you all tomarrow.  i wont be playing but i'm going to try to make it down before the end of the first round.

a little reminder - the new course is natural tee and we've had a couple big snowfalls that are melting away quick so be prepared for some slick pads and soft ground.
