My spring break is this week and I have to figure out a way to golf. I live in ames, Iowa. Does anyone know of any decent golf courses that are going to be open south of here? I'm willing to drive 6-8 hours if I have to.

Whare(sp) :) where

I dont know if they are far enough south from you, but the Harvestor is a great course (#36 public course in the USA) right in your neck of the woods.

When ever I am going to a new state I always check golf digest top public courses by each state. Thats what Id do if I were you.

The main problem was that I didn't know how far south I would have to drive to find an open golf course. I have found that it is awfully difficult to find that information from course websites. I tried to call a buch here in iowa but nobody was answering for me.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
