MPO player here from out of state - visiting Austin for the first time! Are there any resources for housing and transportation to and from the courses? I see that they are spread throughout the area. Renting a car would add a lot of money to the trip, but I'm not sure how else I'd go about transporting myself for practice rounds and on tournament days.
Lived in Austin for 23 years, not sure exactly which courses you're playing...but public transportation is not good and won't get you anywhere near most of the courses. Your best bet may be to find out which hotel will have a lot of players in your division and then try to hitch a ride to and from the course (though tee-times make that a little tougher to do).
