I'm heading to Ft. Lauderdale in about 3 weeks and am looking for some advice on any good local courses.

I'm staying with some buddies at a Wyndham Resort in Pompano Beach. (I was there about a year ago and other than sleeping, didn't spend much time in PB. Didn't seem to be the friendliest of places.) If anyone has advice for a good golf course let me know. I'd appreciate anything. Thanks in advance.

I'd love to play Doral! BUT I think I'd be the only one playing, since golf really isn't the idea of fun for the other people. At least I know they wouldn't shell out dough for 18 holes. I'd love to do that. How much per round? And is it easy to get on the course? I'm sure I'd be paired with some other people and my wife probably couldn't ride.

I live in Ft. Lauderdale. If you are staying in Pompano, you can play Plantation Preserve or TPC Heron Bay. Emerald Hills in Hollywood is supposed to be a pretty good track too although I've never played. All three of those options will probably be pricey because we are still in season until May 1. Plantation can be VERY crowded too.

In my bag:

Driver: SQ 9.5, Graphite Stiff Shaft
3 Wood: Diablo 13 degree, Stiff Shaft
2 Hybrid: SQ 18 degree, Steel Stiff ShaftIrons: MP-30, 3-PWSW: 56* Vokey Copper spin-milledFW 52* VokeyFlat Stick Zing 2Ball: Pro V1x

I forgot about Deer Creek as well. Very nice track. There has been a coupon in the Sun Sentinel on Mondays to play there for $35 during the week after 3:45pm. Very pricey otherwise but very nice track out in Deerfield.

    • It isn't about maintaining focus 100% of the time when you are on the course. It is getting focus back for the shot at hand. Even PGA tour players will chat with their caddies or opponents about non-golf stuff, but then lock in. It is hard to try to constantly be 100% locked in for 4+ hours.  Totally normal thing to happen. You really only need a few moments of focus.  This is where a pre-shot routine helps. Maybe you need to add something that gets the focus back.  I just focus on every shot like a puzzle that needs solved. I like solving puzzle and problems. So, I try to be curious. Which then enhances focus. I think it lets me take each shot at hand. It lets me have the down time between shots. What I do is just get to the ball, and then start gathering information. Yardage, lie, wind, where is the pin at, etc.. Then I figure out what I want to do.  It's not like I can't shut off the thoughts and focus when I need to. I only need to focus for a few minutes before each shot.
