Anyone from Michigan?

[MI Rob]

Just wondering if anyone else is from Michigan? What city do you live in? Home course?

[Big_M]

I am FROM Michigan, but moved down here last May... I am FROM Oxford... and my "home" courses were Oxford Hills, Bald Mountain, Copper Hills, Devil's Ridge, Oakland Univ. Courses, and Blackheath... at least those were the ones I always played several rounds per year at... but I have played damn near everything in Metro-Detroit and many others in SE MI and up North.

I'm from Michigan and live in Clinton Twp. My home courses are Gowanie and Plumbrook, but like Big_M,

I am from Brighton, I just started in the begining of summer so im still learning and getting ahold of it. Have either of you played at Kensington, Huron Meadows, Hartland Glen or Faulkwood Shores? Those are the courses i have played so far. and Stone bridge in Ann Arbor.

No, I don't think I've played any courses in that area, just pretty much all the ones by me and the really notable ones up north, and several in the Oxford area.

[MI Rob]

I see. I wanted to take my gf or sister up north for a weekend or so in the summer. Which course up there would be somewhat cheap but a nice course to play at?

[rubbery]

Honestly, courses don't get much better than the ones in Northern Michigan you might want to consider shelling out some cash if you want the full experience. There are some nice courses that don't cost an arm and a leg though. I played Little Traverse Bay over the summer, and it was a really scenic course. It had a lot of beautiful views, but the greens weren't spectacular.

If you want to spend some money, though, Black Lake and any of the Boyne Courses are extremely nice.

Alright thanks. I will have to go up there this summer.

I have played Huron Meadows (OK course). If you're in that are play Eagle Crest and Lake Forest in the Ann Arbor area, and try the Jackal and Huntmore (very tough, but fun) in the Brighton area.

Hunters Ridge in Howell and Timber Trace in Pinckney are two of my favorites in Livingston County. Good tracks, decent prices, and usually not too busy.

[MI Rob]

Thanks. My buddy told me about Timber Trace the other day, we are going to go play there when season starts back up. What city are you in?
