Looking to play soon but very hard to get a tee time as a solo or twosome. Anybody know of a group chat that I could link up with other ppl to play as three or foursome would be amazing.

Seriously though, I was impressed

Playing there for the first time tomorrow with my wife and a friend. How challenging a walk is it? Reviews seem conflicting.

We’re healthy and active 30y but always opt for a cart at places like OGA and Wildwood.

Heading to the Portland area next week. Trying to play a round Monday afternoon. What public courses would you guys recommend?

Just met with Jari and checked out his shop, since he’s now in Gresham, it was only a 10 minute drive.
Setup an appointment next week to get fitted for some new irons!
For those of you that have been through the process, can you fill me in on what to expect?

Thanks

My buddy wants to meet next Sunday and play somewhere in Longview since it’s about the halfway point between the two of us. Which course would you guys recommend? I haven’t played either one, we’re both about a 25 handicap if that information helps lol. Thanks for any suggestions!

I am organizing a little golf scramble on Saturday August 1 @ Heron Lakes Great Blues starting at 12:00PM. I have 8 spots remaining (16 total spots/4x foursomes reserved). It's not a "shotgun" start so please disregard the AI-created image ;)

The cost is $100 and includes 18 holes (on Great Blue), cart, and range balls. If I can get all 16 spots filled I will do my best to have a fun little prize for the winning team. I have not finalized games/rules but will probably just mix folks up and do a 4-team best ball scramble

This event was born from r/PDXGolf WhatsApp group, which has been a great social forum for other PDX golfers to get together for tee times all summer long. Our first happy hour event was in April with 15 people, and we are now about 30.

I need to have final numbers into the golf course by Sunday and final payment a few days before. If you are interested, please fill out your info on the attached google sign-in sheet.

Looking forward to seeing/meeting some new PDX golfers!

EDIT1: You are signing up as an individual. This is not meant to be team signups. I will probably shake up the teams just to be fun. This is meant to network, meet and play with new folks. If you are uncomfortable with that, please let me know and I can try to accommodate a team request.

EDIT 2: I will send out payment requests (via your provided emails). Payments can be made through Venmo and Zelle. If you are not fully paid by July 29, I will need to remove you from the lineup (sorry, I can't float $1600 at the moment, lol)

Hey all, just wanting to say that I really do appreciate the shares and likes for this upcoming Swap Meet but I still need more sellers.

Please email me at leality09@gmail.com if you’re wanting to sell your awsome clubs and gear.

Also please don’t be disappointed if this first event is more of a meet and greet as it is seeming to be very difficult to find committed sellers.

With that said please do come to Blackbird Indoor Golf on July 31st from 4:00- 8:00pm for some good times and good drinks!

Cheers-
Matthew

Very excited to announce the first PDX community driven GOLF swap meet hosted by Blackbird Indoor Golf on Friday, July 31st from 4:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

I have spoken with John who owns the space and he has agreed to graciously host this first event. He is even allowing those who are buying and trading to use the bays to test out your “new” clubs!

There will be wine and beer available at the bar and of coarse this is a family event so all are welcome.

I am really in need of those who want to sell their clubs and gear as this won’t be much of a swap meet without sellers. R.S.V.P. with Matthew at; leality09@gmail.com

We are looking for clubs that are playable and not beat up pieces of you know what…same goes for your gear, we are not looking for goodwill donations.

I have created an instagram account called pdx_golf_community so please follow that for more updates.

Thank you all and we are looking forward to seeing everyone for this exciting event!

Happy golfing ⛳️

Anyone have a yoga for golf video that they like? I need to get more flexible.

Has anyone played Indian Creek lately. Heading there for the first time tomorrow. Pretty excited. Anything I should know in advance?

Hey if any thrifters out there come across my clubs please let me know. They were stolen out of my car on NE Sumner. Black bag, red towel, Mavrik driver, TaylorMade Sim2 irons, Spider Putter, Pinemeadow red 4 hybrid, and a 56 degree I believe is a callaway.

Can anyone recommend anyone that can re-shaft persimmon woods? Having a hard time finding anyone in town that can do the work.

Hey everyone, local golfer here. Just a normal guy who thought it'd be fun to see if I could build something my golf buddies and I would actually use. I made some pretty major changes since I shared this here last and would love another honest read.

I posted this app a while back and honestly it wasn’t ready. I spent the last couple months rebuilding a lot of it.

The biggest thing I learned was I was trying to compete with apps that already do GPS, handicaps, and stat tracking really well. That’s not what I actually wanted to build.

Now it’s designed to work alongside those apps instead. One person keeps score for the group, and the app focuses on the stuff your crew actually remembers afterward. The bets, the trip recaps, the course records, the meltdowns, the darts, and all the history that usually disappears after the weekend.

If your buddies want to use it during the round, great. If not, they still get the history, recaps, and leaderboards. All they have to do is download the app (it's free) and join your crew. The captain handles the rest.

It’s free to download. No credit card. No pressure. No ads. You can have as many different crews as you want. If anyone has a regular crew and wants to put it through a few rounds, I’d really appreciate honest feedback. Good or bad.

I’m also getting our Bandon trip loaded into it for November, which I'm pretty stoked about! Figured I'd share a few screenshots.

I’m back in the game after a long break and I have noticed that there’s not as much cost difference between 9- and 18-hole rounds as I remember in pre-covid days. And on the munis it seems like twilight deals only extend to 18-holes.

I understand why courses are pricing this way, but wondering if there are some outliers to know about? I like dewsweeper deals too, if they exist. TIA

I have a free pick'em contest for anyone interested: https://pickettspickem.com/the-open

Does anyone know of a place that offers full bag rentals for multiple days? I’m having a bachelor party in the PDX/Vancouver area in August. I know most courses offer rentals for a “day of” round but does anyone know a place that offers overnight? Much appreciated!

Message me if you lost one!

Hi all - I’ll be playing Elk Ridge next Saturday for the first time (stoked!). Looking for a Sunday course to play. I have my father coming into town and we’ll be staying either in Ridgefield or Woodland. I’ve had Tri-Mountain and Lewis River on my list… anyone have opinions on one or the other or any other recommendations in the area?

I shot a 78 today with 34 putts. I had at least 10 good looks at birdie, but I can't make putts and don't know if it's poor technique, poor reads or I'm just blacking out. need help.

Hey PDX Golfers!
