The Third Step of Your Complete Golf Vacation, A Conclusion

 

     Your beautiful golf vacation with your friends begins and ends with you. Pack holiday package packages in bulk and design your golf course. This is the final episode of four articles that will help you provide you and your friends with a journey that will make you want to do it every year (as we have been running for 19 years).

     From the last article, you are now in the process of removing one month. So far you have gathered troops, selected dates, selected lodging and golf courses and are in the final stages of preparation. Soon you will see your friends smile when you apply for goods at the airport. Final preparation and performance of the whole show is a game for kids. The hard part was getting a lot of your friends to buy tickets to enjoy the event. Here are a few things you will want to do before the sound of the tires flying over the tarmac.

1. Transportation. Limitations to and from the airport due to clubs AND suitcases. If you can't put everyone in the cars by this time, the whole week is a soup. From your experience, you know that if you pack four guys to play golf in the area, you will completely fill the car pole with full size. With that in mind, you should plan a car with a full size for all three people. We use one minivan / SUV added to the cars for our ride. Just make sure you accept the limitation case.

You need to plan for these rental cars in advance, but you can only drive them yourself. Here is a one-month removal obligation. If you find your car needs, contact the team to arrange between them and you will contact and rent the remaining cars. There will probably be some in your group who have discounts available and who can get a good rating. Hash this by email.

2. Entertainment. Unless you go to a desert in Arizona or get very lucky, you will have a rainy day or two. You will have plenty of time at night after golf (after you have told your lies). We immediately invite you to watch a golf course, ESPN, play cards, or watch videos. The latter is what you can talk about early. We have a guy who is very good at choosing the movies he will watch and we order him to come up with them. Movies like "Gladiator", "Miracle", etc. great. Additional 'risque' titles are selected. On rainy days, we also went bowling (real hooot), did a local movie theater, and toured the area.

3. Checklists. After about ten years of being asked twenty times a day where we were playing the next day, or when we had to leave, or what we were going to eat, or who stole my teddy bear, I finally started typing these things. I make each copy and send it periodically throughout the house. I make individual laminated cards and hand for each golfer. Do you know? Reduce the questions in half and now when I am asked, I say I do not remember, let me go over to the fridge and read it to you. Here are the things I prepare well in advance:

- Fact list, tee times, course contact number, and travel time. I support the time away from MapBlast directions and install a cool ice stopper again if we need to hit the distance balls.

- Dinner menu. If this is your first time, keep the menu simple and make sure you have recipes in hand. For any size group, you will have a chef or two and this will not be a big deal.

- Multiple copies of "order sheet" of sandwiches. Most of the time at our lunch between rounds, we eat our prepared, delicious sandwiches prepared yesterday. As you have seen in previous articles, I ask what the team wants and I have that on the shopping list. What has become more confusing is that there is a sheet of people going around or filling it out to determine which sandwiches they want the next day. He wraps up the preparation (two excellent ones) every night and with that sheet, they make a delicious party. (Don't underestimate this! The sandwiches you make will be more than just another portion of a full meal in the course AND you will not have to wait until you are pressed for time in the middle of your cycle.)

- Great! We did not keep a record of our points in our first few years. Great mistake. What a wonderful history we have spent. Keep a record! I prepare the paper to fill as we go. It allows us to track who the leader of a general stroke is and provides us with tools to use to negotiate next day betting. I take this home and invest it permanently on our golf website.

- Cost. I pay for everything except small bumps and collect everyone’s share on the last night. That keeps you simple. I am currently using a spreadsheet to manage this. It works very well. I'll give you this, but this title format does not allow it. Before that, I used only pen and paper and earned a penny. My point is that from the moment you start your journey, keep track of what you spent! Prepare a lesson check by paying everyone, buy all the food and drinks, buy all the gas, etc. If someone pays for something, sign in immediately. If you believe in this, you will have no complaints, only praise.

4. Things that no one will bring without you:

- Several cards, poker chips

- Cribbage board

- Screw and wood driver (you do not know)

- Pens, pencils and permanent markers (you will need everything)

- Disinfectants are over the counter

- Band Aids

- Game

5. Arrival. So here you have a group of bad friends who go down to Mecca for golf. You drive into your home and it's a race to the best room you can find. NO. To avoid any strong feelings between the lodger who got the queen bed and the lodger who got the twin bed, just set a quick pull out of the hat. In the years to come, do the same, but use a higher-order system. Once a person
