I'm in the Oklahoma City area.  Decent municipal courses here... Earlywine, Trosper, Hefner, and Lincoln are all decent for the cash.  Best public courses are probably in the edmond area, coffee creek and kickingbird come to mind.  The Jimmie Austin OU Golf course in Norman is pretty damn good.

I live down in Altus its in the south west corner of the state. Speaking of the OU course my buddy works for their facility. I've been needing to go up there and get to play the discounted guest rate

I live in Norman -- let me know if you pass through here.  I usually play the muni -- not OU (I'm happy with Westwood, and I'm cheap too).  The OU course *is* nice though.  ...as is "The Trails".  Personally, I don't really like "The Links" which is on the border between Norman and Noble.

...I'm also heading up to Tahlequah in a few days for a conference. I don't think I'll have time to play, but if I had time to sneak away for a few holes, where would you recommend?

Glad to see I have some fellow Oklahomans on here! As far as the Tahlequah courses go, of you can only play nine holes I would play the back nine at cherry/Cherokee springs (they're in the midst of a name change) ill have to come check out that OU course, the nicest I've played is Forrest Ridge in Broken Arrow. It's a little closer to me and its tough!

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
