Welcome to the forums..you'll really like it here. Very well run site and great members. Plus it's always good to have another Cincinnati guy in the mix.

Have fun at Perry Park. Not sure if you've ever been there or not, but it's a pretty neat place for a golf trip type getaway. I've taken a few trips down there, but haven't been there since they opened up their 3rd 9. Heard it's nice though.

If you haven't been to Perry Park before, the one bit of advice I'd give you is this: take whatever you want with you because it's a freakin' HAUL to get to a store! Out in the middle of nowhere it seems, but it's a great place for golf.

I am also new to the site and from Ohio, although I live in the Columbus area. If you're looking for a great course in the Cincinatti area, try Blue Ash Golf Course. It is rated by Golf Digest as one of the top 75 muni courses in the country. Last thursday, I played in an outing there and it's top notch for a truly public course.

The greens were wonderful, they putted smooth and fast, but would allow a good shot to check up. That combo is tough to find at a lot of public courses.

It was also pretty tight with a lot of good lay-outs. There were holes that required a draw, fade and the ability to stop a short iron on a dime. Overall, it's the best course I played in quite sometime.

Take that with a grain of salt though, I couldn't play for close to six years and prior to that while in the military only had enough money to play courses on base. Back in Chicago, while growing up I had access to some high end courses that were not as well kept as Blue Ash.

Being from the Cincinatti area, it might be worth it for you to check it out.
