Default How do I find better players, <12 handicaps?
I've been here a year in Mission Hills, and have played a lot of Championship golf with my neighborhood group. Great guys, lots of fun, but most prefer playing white tees (rightly so) and recently they are playing more offsite for lower rates. Since I'm a Priority member, I'd prefer to stay onsite most of the time, and I don't like to play before 9 am, afternoon is better. I'm an 8-10 handicapper, not terribly long off the tee but like to play blue or even gold tees. Playing for money is fine, as long as I win or lose 6-8 bucks max, not interested in $50 games.

I'm not interested in tournament golf, I like to roll 'em in the fairways and gimmes are fine inside the leather. I try not to take my game too seriously, and like to have fun out there. What's the best way for me to get hooked up with some "better" players without getting involved in "tournament" golf?
