Nicaragua Surf Report for Tuesday, January 03, 2017

Hello ladies and gentlemen! This is Hotstick Hannahs welcoming you to today’s NSR report. We have some shots and other goodies to show you so check it out!

Well, it’s the offseason so swell is less consistent. It’s common to receive a groundswell once per month and a couple other minor pulses. Otherwise, we are breaking out the logs!

Or, we keep our eyes on the insiders. Those small gems always seem to slip through the cracks…

If you’re a snowbird, it’s beautiful here. It’s warm, breezy, sunny, the waves are mellow, and the fruit is ripe!!! Trade your skis and goggles in for a soft top for a week in January of February.

Shifting gears, you already knew that the development we live in has a beautifully maintained 9 hole golf course, right? If not, no worries… Keep scrolling down!

Two days per week, we have a scramble. That means you and three buddies team up, grab clubs, and snag a cart to play 9 holes of best ball golf. If you’re like Sean, that means you can play for the first time and still have fun. We’ll show you later but the first timer came in clutch…

Jordan is also part of this squad. These guys are visiting from California and rebooked Rancho del Mar. That’s a perfect house to accommodate a few couples, score waves out front, and enjoy this course.

On Tuesday’s, the scramble begins at 9:00am. On Wednesday, it begins at 3:00pm. However, arrive early (especially Wednesday) to make your reservations and claim your clubs and cart. Thank you Grace for rallying the boys this morning!!

Travis is the group’s golfer so I’d like to thank him for rallying the team… Buttttt Sean was the one carrying this team later in the hole. Stay tuned and keep scrolling...

Ok not a bad drive, 150 yards from the hole. Get us up closer, Jordan!!

How are we lying? Finish those Tonas curls Sean and get us on the green!!

A scramble essential is a cooler full of cold beers. Yes, that putter is important, but Travis is focused on what’s going to help the group win: Tonas. #pinkyout

Yeah Sean!! Nice lie. Eric, Mr. 6 for surfing, almost tapped us in… Ohh buddy!!! Just a hair to the left (or to the right if you're putting). Good thing there’s another shot to make par.

Yeww!!!! Sean, if the architecture career doesn’t work out, maybe professional golfing will. Nice tap in for par bro!

Before we move to hole 5, there has been an Uncle Billy sighting!!! The reason we have a scramble is because Dan Springfield and Bill Chapman. They are the driving forces to organize, manage, and execute the games. Thank you both for your work and delicious pizzas!

Onto the next hole quickly but stopping to take in the views for a minute. Do you see the grass just past the tee box? Yes, that’s the offshore wind behind your drive (plus an extra 100 feet of elevation). Forrrreeeeeeee!!!!

Shooter McGavin stepping up to the tee box sending it long and straight!

What do you guys think about watching Happy Gilmore tonight or keeping it classic with Caddy Shack tonight? After their girlfriends did yoga and massages all day, I think everybody can use a break…

These guys were super fun to play and hang with. We’re stoked you guys are down here again and Eric drove this ball 200 yards! We’ll actually call it 250 or 275 yards because there isn't photographic proof.

Before we conclude, we’d like to take a minute and express our appreciation to our sponsors. Thank you Tona, Nike, Hershey Chocolate, Channel Island surf boards, and In and Out Burger for your continued support! You guys always take good care of us.

Dudes, thanks for letting me tag along, hit a couple balls, and enjoy a couple cold beers. As they wrap up their round of golf, I’m going to wrap up my work so we can hit in the incoming tide this afternoon. See you in the water amigos! Hasta luego.
