Lots of folks trying to get in a round before football games start. Try calling Bent Brook, too. I like Bent Brook a lot. Do you already have tee times somewhere? I know your buddy doesn’t want to shell out the money, but y’all should definitely play Purcell. It will be a bit of a hike to get out there, though.
Those Bent Brook tee times are almost never available until the afternoon on the weekends. I’m pretty sure their regulars have standing tee times and permanently hold the choice tee times because I’ve checked the website 7 days out multiple times and it seems like they’re already blocked off because nothing is available.
Bent brook has nothing. Going to play farm links. That's what I wanted to do all along so I'm glad it's working out. Cheapest guy in the group is out with long covid so silver lining I guess.
My plan as of now.. Friday Playing scramble in Atlanta in the morning then driving out. Dinner at Helen Saturday Pursell farms Lunch at Saws Watch Georgia game Dinner at automatic Sunday Ross bridge at 7. Drive back to Atlanta and hopefully go to Braves Game.
ah. i lived over there for several years after college and played just about every public course around town. We liked to play The Frog out in Villa Rica on the way back to Alabama.
I am planning our yearly golf trip with buddies from college and we considered pulling the trigger on Purcell. It's just ridiculously expensive to stay and play down there relative to other resorts. We will probably head back to Ole Waverly.
Just got back from a trip there. It was great. We played 72 holes in three days. Really enjoyed the Mossy Oak course.
I shot a million at Mossy Oak but really enjoyed how different it was than Waverly. It's a great resort and I don't think you can get better value anywhere else in the Southeast.
Which Saws you planning on? Always a difficult choice for me because they all have different menus. Only one place to get the ribs though, and that’s the original in Homewood.
Not to mention I'm pretty sure he grew up like waaaaaay south of town and don't know nuthin' about Bham. He's from Prattville if I'm remembering correctly.
On a Saturday afternoon Juke Joint will have the games on. Could also eat a Soul Kitchen and watch games at Avondale. With Auburn early and Bama and night they will likely have UGa on the projector.
I’m not taking food advice from the guy who’s entire social media presence is going to Applebee’s across the state making videos of that dumb ass song and dance.
Has anyone ever had the dry aged bone in Kansas city strip at Helen? I've seen a ton of people recommend the ribeye but strip is slightly bigger and way more expensive. Is that like their signature cut?
I have not, but can tell you that you’ll want to get the apple pie with your number 5 from milos. Cherry is just a little too sweet
Have changed my Ross bridge tee time Sunday morning to the Oxmoore par 3. I want to get back to Atlanta incase the Braves have a home game. May hit Milo's on way out. Can't be as bad as Jack's.
I will be dining at Helen Friday night. I’ll be wearing my finest Luke Jackson shirsey so stop by and say hey if you see me.
