September Golf

[DisneydaveCT]

OK, I haven't had too much luck so far, but I will try again for next week's trip.

Anybody visiting 9/23-26 interested in meeting for a round of golf? If you are a solo Disney gal who might be apprehensive about golfing with a Disney Guy, I am not concerned with the calibler of your play, but rather the enjoyment of your company for a few hours.

I guess we need to work on the scheduling of our trips home.

Too bad you are not going in November. I would play with you! I generally shoot in the low 90's... and love the Disney courses!

Wish I could join you for my 1st lesson! Have a wonderful trip.

Don't think "Vegas Baby"....think "Disney Baby."

Do you have a favorite course at Disney? I will likely get in a round at Osprey Ridge, Eagle Pines, and LBV.

Had a great round of golf in CT today. Now I can't wait to get to the Disney golf courses next week

Hey, disneydave,

I see from your signature you are from both CT and OK - do you spend summers in CT? My favorite Disney course is Osprey...

Hey, disneydave,

No, I live in CT full time and visit Old Key West when I am at WDW. Osprey is a great course. It is one of the three that I will be golfing at this weekend.

For me it is a toss-up between Osprey and Eagle Pines for which one is my favorite.

Have you ever been to the course at Celebration, FL? It is a nice course as well. But I usually don't go there unless I am planning on golfing with someone specifically.

Have a great day!

Another great round today. One with a personal best for 9 holes (39). Can't wait for the Disney course. I will be at Eagle Pines on Saturday.

Have a great time on your trip. Hope your golfing games are "up to par" (yeah, I know, bad, bad, bad pun).

Congratulations again Dave!

Thanks Mike...Great to see you this weekend.

As Mike hinted, I do have a great bit of news about my September golf trip to WDW.

On the 7th hole at Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course, I shot my first
hole-in-one.

It was 129 yard shot to an island green. I made this ace with my 7-iron.

This was a truly magical moment for me at WDW. First, because I have been golfing at WDW since 1989, and have been hoping that my very first hole-in-one ever would happen at WDW. The second is that Old Key West looks out on the 7th hole at LBV, which made it extra special since I have been a DVC member at Old Key West for over 10-years.

Now I can't wait to go back in December.

 

[CoasterAddict]

yay Dave!! Congratulations. Glad you had a magical trip.

 

[sandy5764]

I have no idea what all that "golf" terminology means ( ), but congrats!!!

 

[OrlandoMike]

Why do I have the feeling Dave's next visit will be in a OKW villa overlooking that exact hole?

Hole In One!

wow! Fantastic! Congratulations! What an incredibly great thing to get your first hole in one at Disney! I am so happy for you! I wish wish wish i could get one. I have come so close - so many times, but no..... My uncle didn't get his first one until he was 73. I watched a girlfriend of mine who was a terrible golfer hit a 4 iron (four iron.... mind you) up a steep hill on a par three 102 yard hole in a big tournament and get a hole in one. I wanted to kill her. Just kidding. Well, maybe kidding. Well maybe not kill her exactly.... you get the idea.

Anyway what a whole bunch of pixie dust for your trip there, especially to get it on the course your DVC overlooks. Magical trip you will never forget. Way to go, Dave! And to the golf gods...

That's building #15, #64, and #63, in case you're wondering what buildings to ask for!
Congratulations on your hole-in-one there. DH plays LBV often (he golfs every day of our trips-to him, WDW is a golf resort, with theme parks to keep the "little woman" busy), so I'll be sure to share the good news. And building #15 has beautiful views of that hole, if you want recommendations!
