#55 came in the mail yesterday. Fit the Small perfectly. I was surprised how light weight it actually is but feels very sturdy.

Large, medium, small and a mini. Egg'n, golfing, beer drinking, camping and following football and baseball.

    @hic how long did it take after you ordered it and what was the price? I am between an egg Carten and making one out of wood.

    @jrwhitee Scott Lewis was on hiatus for bit b/c of moving, so he just started making them again. I was in this first batch (I think) since his return, so he was still working out some logistics.I would say it was about 3 weeks after I sent him a check. Here is the original thread announcing his comeback and his link to his blog. http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1166222/carten-update/p1

    @fence0407 I mostly play @ North Fulton, only because I'm in a league there. I have also played the Hooch a couple of times this summer.  When the wife wants to play we usually go to the Georgia Trail but she hasn't asked yet this year :).

    I'm headed to play The Standard Club on Friday morning with a friend. He's a 1 handicap, I'm not. Hope I don't embarrass myself. Where do you normally play at? I have a friend that I normally golf with, but could use another group member! I'll let you know next time we get out (typically weekends).

    I've played North Fulton a few times, including New Year's day this year - bad idea to make an early tee time on New Year's day...

    I typically play courses closer to Alpharetta, Johns Creek and Cumming areas.Trophy Club of Atlanta, Hampton, Woodmont, Lanier..etc.

    I play at St. Marlo a lot as it is right across the street from my house otherwise Windermere. I used to play at Crooked Creek but I think Alpharetta CC may have bought them not sure if it is private. I usually shoot in the high 80's unless I am playing a lot.

    We are in the same boat as far as scoring. I've only played St. Marlo and Windermere 1 time each, years ago. Have you tried River Pines? It's a good little course.

    Yeah for the price it isn't bad at all. Not a very long course though. Hopefully we can get out and play soon!

    I got my Carten a few weeks ago. I'm not the only household member that appreciates it though.

    Nice piece of equipment. Are you from Boston and moved to Atlanta? If so, where from. I moved to Aiken, SC from Eastie a few years back....
