So I got back from Hawaii a couple weeks ago, and I'm still just beaming about that trip I cannot wait to get back.
I was in Maui for 4 days, and I stayed right on the Ka'anapali GC. I know its pathetic, but I could not stop humming the big break theme... didn't play the course though as my travel companions were not so interested.

In Oahu, I did get to play and we decided to try a course which claims to be "toughest in the nation", Ko'Olau! (Or as we now affectionately refer to it "Ko'OhWow!")

I carded a 92 from the "resort" tees, (6,406yds, 71.7, 138) which i was pumped about since it was with rental clubs and this was my second round of the year. But really i didn't care about the score, this was just a fun experience!

I definitely recommend this course, just bring LOTS of golf balls.

I agree with all you said. I played Ko'Olau in May of 2008 and it was beautiful. Not only the course, but also the scenery. It is a must play course if you go to Honolulu.

    • Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20. 
    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
