Show I played in a circuit event up there about 4-5 years ago....tons of fun and a LOT of side games. Great sit n go action too. I’m jealous!
Officially Midway, NC which is right next to winston Salem, NC SO pretty much Winston Salem. I love Midway and I love Winston and miss them something bad up here in Michigan.
I’m from Staunton. Born and raised. Then got the hell out. Haha. What brings you there?
Jersey born and raised... originally from south part of Jersey like 30 mins from philly then got married and moved to the central part of Jersey like 15 minutes from Rutgers.... hoping to go back to South Jersey again
My wife's work brought us here 10 yrs ago. Love it here but have had many friends that grew up here say the same thing about getting the hell out
More room for us yankees
Germanton NC looking straight up at Hanging Rock. We are on the Germanton and Quaker Gap line.
Interesting. I grew up in Pitt County and have family in Wayne County. Moved to Northern Virginia about 8 years ago. Leesburg and then Great Falls most recently.

You know, you actually do appreciate it when you leave. But you have to leave haha. You don’t get treasures like downtown, the wharf, and Gypsy Hill just anywhere though.
Do we have a gary/flatarheel situation here?
Boy....that's a loaded question for Minnesota.
It kind of depends what you mean by 'chilly' too. It's pretty cold from mid-December through February. The heat and humidity can be pretty rough June through August. Spring and fall are the best, though. I'm an upper-60s to mid-70s kind of guy....so those are my favorites. But it can be extreme, too. Last fall we were pretty much done golfing by the end of October because of the cold, and this past spring we got a foot of snow in the middle of April. Meanwhile, the year prior we golfed until almost mid-December and the temps were in the 70s by early March.
I'll just say this....after what we experienced last winter, we're in for something more mild this year.
So, you’re originally a southern boy??
Hahaha if you consider South Jersey southern then yes
southern thru and thruMan I’m ready for some 60’s and 70’s. It’s been an absolutely brutal summer here in the Carolinas. The heat and humidity are unreal. Give me spring and fall and do away with winter and summer. I guess our winter would seem balmy to you though.Boy....that's a loaded question for Minnesota.

Right up my alley. Spring and fall. The problem here is, it rains every single day during spring, and fall lasts about a week.
I have always claimed, Pinehurst and Columbia are the 2 hottest places on earth.
Cool. Hey, a guy who plays here at our local game just took one down ! Dom Dunn, he told me when he got to heads up(with a woman) they struck up a deal to chop. They agreed to chop and the overall winner got the ring, DOM WON ! Got a WSOP ring and 33,500.00. Not bad for a little weekend trip ! He would have gotten 46,000 if he hadn't agreed to chop.
I grew up on a road called Bad Street. The farther down the street you lived the badder you were. I lived off the end of the Culdesac down a 7 mile trail in a pup tent.
