So I can tell you don’t have kids playing sports….
Rec ball is NOT enjoyable for any kid that is halfway decent and wants to play high school ball, etc….
Plays other sports- basketball and football
And about spending time… what do you think we do at the ballpark? In between games, sitting together, hanging out, cooking, etc…
But yea.. I should use all that money to get into a deer lease and be away from home all winter…. Ok, great justification….

Unless you are in some legit travel ball league, travel ball is the new rec ball. Each team has 3 superstars and the rest are decent players.

Unless you have someone who can get you on Squire Creek
Trail's End Golf Course in Arcadia is a nice course, it's probably 25 minutes from Ruston and open to the public. It's a tough tract
or
Lake D'Arbonne Country Club in Farmerville (I love this course)
it's about 30 minutes
neither are usually very busy
One of the guys has a brother that lives at Squire and is playing with us. I'm looking forward to it, haven't played out there yet.

You will three put at least 4 times.
Those greens are hard to read.
I've played it 7-8 times

we already have a golf match planned for the tournament in a few weeks when we are in north Louisiana.
The City of Ruston appreciates your tax money.

For the most part you are right… especially aa, and aaa ball. Most legit major teams are solid

If he's not on his third Tommy John by his freshman year, better hope he has something to fall back on.

OMG….after reading this shat, I’m so glad my Son lost interest in baseball.

Lose interest… or did every other kids skills pass him by?
Nothing wrong with either.. just curious…

You love it now because it's new... just wait until it consumes everything outside of your job.

Also just to add, travel ball has been around long enough, and has been the biggest producer of baseball talent long enough in some areas, that many current big leaguers actually were travel ball kids
ETA: an example would be Josh bell and Corbin Carroll. They played on the same travel team growing up

T-Rev had a great weekend in his first travel ball tournament going 7-11 and threw 5 innings giving up 1 run in the championship game.
If he wants to do that in the majors he either needs to live off of hot dogs and beer or be Japanese.
