If you hear dueling banjos, leave asap!Anyone here play River Ridge in Griswold CC? How would it be this time of year? Worth over an hour drive?
Funny you say that. Have you ever played Connecticut National near Putnam? I sort of knew how to get there from the New Haven area. But second time there 5-6 years ago I decided to use WAZE. it got me off 395 a few exits earlier than expected. I literally wound up for at least 3 miles on a dirt road. There were some houses on it which I imagined one must be Carl Spackler’s place and I definitely heard Dueling Banjos. It was actually a proper route and as it turned out, the dirt road became paved about 100 yards before the golf course driveway.If you hear dueling banjos, leave asap!
Not sure I’m playing there Thurs looks nice but I don’t know yet if my friend fromShould be in nice shape fun layout take a ride. Just make the call to be sure they don’t have huge aeration holes you will be fine! As mentioned above good restaurant as well.
I’m on the grand kid circuit occasionally. Haven’t played in over 2 months for various reasons and my,more local golf friends can’t play Thursday. Might be the last decent golf day around here for a while.River ridge is nowhere close to those courses but I’m sure would be fun nonetheless. I haven’t gotten out in probably 2 months already at this point…. That’s what youth sports will do.
carl lives on millions of square feet of dirt, just a quick drive from the saks fifth joint. he used to own the golf course in Woodstock. too bad u don't read the garden thread here, cuz iffn u did, u'd know that there'll be plenty of days between now and late january when u'll be able to get out and hit the links in southern New England.Funny you say that.

One of my UConn roomies came from Canterbury CT. We went to a wooded area near his place one day and he warned me away from a stone boundary wall. He said his swamp Yankee neighbor would blow my head off. I don’t think he was kidding and this Hartford kid wasn’t about to find out.
Putnam’s a cool town and most of us don’t live on dirt roads…and i love playing Connecticut National!Funny you say that. Have you ever played Connecticut National near Putnam?
