re: Baton Rouge Greens Report

please know that Copper Mill has a new Superintendent that started late in the growing season. The fact that you can see visable repairs and consistent top dressing of the bad areas in question lets you know that this guy cares and is changing the culture there. I know the Superintendent very well and he has done amazing at every other golf course he has been at. Give him time and keep supporting Copper Mill and it will continue to improve and be one of the best options in the BR area again.
re: What is your favorite whole bean coffee?
Posted by leblanc272 on 10/20/25 at 7:06 am to rpg37
I enjoy River Road Coffee out of Baton Rouge. I like their Acadian and the Creole. you can get it in whole bean or ground. I can't get in Lake Charles, so when I travel for work or head east to see family, I stop into stores that carry it over that way and stock up.
re: White River Arkansas Trout Fishing Guides

I used Rising River Guides last year and they were very easy and responsive. They did get us Alex Carr from Diamond State Outfitters and he was great with teaching my 13yr the art of fly fishing. Bryan Stark with rising river is pretty damn good and is from Rayne, Louisiana. this spring when I go back I will be staying at White River Trout Club.

re: Honest Opinion of Ram Trucks
Posted by leblanc272 on 8/20/25 at 6:50 am to YouKnowImRight
I owned a 2022 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 and the rear end went out at 37,000 miles. the repair took 14 days and never felt right so I traded it in 5 days later. The ride quality and interior features were great. the radio sync sucked. I really liked my truck until the rear end issues. If it had been repaired correctly, I may still be driving it. I traded it and went with a vehicle built pre-covid and supply issues
re: Friendly Reminder on Jeeps and Rams
Posted by leblanc272 on 7/15/25 at 8:55 am to AlxTgr
my 22 Ram had the rear end go out at 37,000 miles. the warranty repair took 14 days and wasn't done correctly and still had issues. Then that crap U connect for the radio never worked right. the truck was comfortable and rode smooth and looked good, but the reliability wasn't there.

Nic Hunter is a Republican and the incoming mayor is an Independent
I live in the neighborhood where the shooting occured and it was a VRBO rented out for a graduation party. Hard to believe with the amount of shots fired only one person was killed and zero reported injured.

re: Who here grew up playing the East and West courses at City Park New Orleans?
Posted by leblanc272 on 3/7/25 at 7:11 am to CBandits82
I grew up walking the East course with my dad in the late 80's, and hitting balls at the driving Range with him. I gave up on Golf in the early 90's until I got my first real job in Golf in 1999 and the bosses made me play with them once a week. In 2015, Billy Casper Golf had me go back to the North Course and grow in the greens that were being renovated. I didn't agree with the way it was being done, but they weren't concerned with doing it right. That North course with a little TLC could be really fun walking course.
