    Default Random Golf Club

    Erik Anders Lang will be at Royal Park golf club on Friday this week doing one of his Random Golf Club things, just thought i'd put it out there for anyone that wanted to attend.

    I'll be going down, i think it's $70 or something like that.

    Geez the rates at Royal Park have gone up! I like his stuff and I have a soft spot for Royal Park, what does the $70 get you?

    Not many courses in the world that have a road, train and tram line through it, chuck in listening to Lions roar at the zoo, the zombies at the Re-pat centre and 2 of the shortest par 5's in the known universe!

    EAL has put out some great content but reckon he's becoming more and more up himself and this event has only reaffirmed that view.

    From what I gather all his 'random golf club' events in the past have been free (maybe green fees).

    Seems like a massive cash grab for what is essentially having the chance to meet him, walk around a golf course 'playing' with a group of 20+ other people.

    Cash grab so he can pay for some of his expenses associated with the Presidents Cup

    Eric Lang, although I would assume the room would be comped for him.

    Without knowing the facts and understanding that the RGC events have always been free I’d suggest it’s the course asking for the money- not Eric and the team.

    His name was in the OP, but why should we know him, or even pay to see him? He's not a golfer that I have heard of.

    7 million YouTube views and god knows how many podcast downloads say plenty of people know who is.

    You should. His “Adventures in Golf” series is really good.

    He is a little bit of a knob, but gets to some mighty nice, and interesting, golf courses in his travels.

    Dammit. That made me watch it again and now I massively regret not playing it in October, cored greens or no cored greens. Wife is probably happy I didn’t spend the coin though.
    Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now about to become a Masters champion..... It looks like a mirac.. It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

    Don’t regret just plan a round there ‘in the future’.

    Good point. The two new courses next door will probably do the job just fine though.

    Mine too actually. Seems like a decent way to celebrate it.
