Hi Bob, there are lots of members in Florida so hope you get a game or two when you're there. it's exactly what the community is meant for, BUT I would advise you not to post your email address on this or any other forum.

Any member up for a game in Florida can send you a private message (which is totally secure) whereas by posting your email address you expose yourself to suddenly receiving a lot of spam mail !!

So the moral of the story is use the forum to post the question and get a conversation going (perhaps getting some advice from local members on which courses are worth playing) but then use the 'Post a Game' function to post an open game and see who can join you or use the 'Messaging' system to tie up the detail of a game. 

Good luck.

Exactly, couldn't agree more.

I joined a greyhound website and sent my email address out a few years ago and suddenly got so much junk mail it was a joke.
