For a home course, its got to be within a 15 drive for me. Im not into repeatedly spending half of a day on one round of golf.

Normal round...…  45 Min..   I have about 20 within a 45 min drive from my house.

Really?

I can’t think of any place in the greater Orlando area that doesn’t have at least a half dozen courses within a 30 minute drive.

I agree we visit Orlando a lot and you can be just about anywhere in the city and throw a rock to the nearest golf course. They are everywhere.

No more than a 30 minute drive, in good weather and the usual traffic with no construction! This is unless we are going to someplace "special"! But then, someplace special is not a "normal" round!

I play in a Senior Traveling tournament league pretty much every week.  We play 25 different courses this year.  Some of those will be a 2 hour drive for me because we play on Thursdays and have to deal with rush hour work and school traffic.

My home course is only 5 mins away. I am willing to drive up to 30 mins away for a regular game. Anything more takes too much work/time.

Im 20 minutes from my course now with the snowbirds in town tying up the place. There is another course roughly the same distance north of me, but I don't like really like it. I'm to lazy to drive over to Orlando and play, although I should.
