hmm. My personal favorite has always been TPC Sawgrass, I really want to play there someday. The layout and use of hazards is brilliant.

Looking for a new bag..
- Taylor Made Burner TP 10.5
- Tommy Armour 845 3 wood
- Nike CPR 18 degree rescue
- Taylor Made r7 draw 4-pw- Taylor Made RAC 52 degree - Cleveland 588 wedges 56 and 60 degree- Taylor Made TPI-23 putter- Taylor Made TP Black (can't wait for the Penta)

The best course is Pacific Dunes (Bandon, Oregon), and Bandon Dunes facility is the best overall destination for golf in the US. It includes Bandon Dunes, Pacific Dunes and Bandon Trails. Absolutely spectacular golf courses and a great overall experience.

It's really tough to narrow down to one when I've only seen most of them on TV but I would love to play Pebble Beach, Chambers Bay, Bayhill, or Augusta. Had the chance to walk Torrey Pines during a practice round for the US Open and it looked like it would be a blast to play.

However, if I HAD to choose one it would be Augusta.

AUGUSTA is there anyone here who would not give a appendage to play it?

question is impossible to answer... but to those who try...
would you want to be a member at course X and would course X get boring in time, would it loose some of its luster?
I think the best course would be fun to play daily and would be a stern, but fair test... requiring a multitude of shots into greens, around greens, and off the tee.
My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

i would think that firestone would be one of the best because it has a monster par five 600 some yrds maybe more but the best upkeep would be agusta, pebble beach or maybe even torrey pines good morning torrey pines dawn patrol they wak up at 4:30 in the morning just to play the course

I would think you'd have to play the courses to make that determination on best and worst.

Absolutely correct. Kind of silly to proclaim a course you have never played to be the best course.

my vote for best in Merion... watch the walker cup just to see.. proof that a course doesn't need to be 7500 yards long to be challenging.

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      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.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Clemsonfan ·

      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).
