I am heading there this week also. How are Man of War, The Witch and The Wizard.

I'll tack on to what others have said.

My father and I played MB about 6-7 years ago. We enjoyed our round at Man-O-War....it was our week opener. It was a decent course but nothing really that reached out and grabbed you. Our next round was at the Wizard. I thouroughly enjoyed this one. My ballstriking was spot on that week. You can pound the driver as was mentioned prior in this thread. There are some really interesting shots to well protected greens...water hazard carries nice bunkers...hills sides, etc. Both of us had just bought X14s and mine were treating me so nicely. The Wizard is a course that I'd play again....one that I'd like to start the week with. We didn't get a chance to play the Witch. Another course of note was the highly advertised (at the time anyway) Long Bay Club...one of Jack's layouts. I enjoyed the course, though not to the level of the Wizard. The greens were a bit shaggy and grainy when we played. I could see where some of the pin placements here could be impossible if the greens are rolling fast. I don't know that I'd play this one again.

If you are looking for a open starter course daly's wicked stick is nice and open. The witch is a great course also, played it a couple of years ago. You work your way thru bottoms and swamp. Makes for an interesting layout compared to most MB courses.

My faves have been Oyster Bay and Glen Dornoch, both just north of MB less than hour from The Legends where we stayed.

I found this resource today:

Hit the link and click "course directory." These guys don't pull any punches. If a course stinks, they say it stinks. I haven't played around there but more information is better than less, I suppose, so hopefully this will be a help to you.
