Toronto's a pretty big Metropolitan area... in which city/town does your brother live...

My must plays whenever I visit my parents in Toronto

1) Glen Abbey Golf Club, Oakville (public)
2) Angus Glenn Golf Club, South Course, Markham (public)
3) St. Georges G&CC;, Toronto (private)
4) The National Golf Club, Woodbridge (private)
5) Whirlpool Golf Club, Niagara on the Lake, (public)

There are literally 200-300 of courses in the area... these are my favs... and definitely worth the drive, fees, or knowing someone who can arrange for you to get on

Cheers, Allan

There's only a couple of decent courses that aren't too far from downtown, and public.

1) Royal Woodbine Golf Club I played here a couple of times, not too bad... a little slow but the couse is always in good shape.

2) Copper Creek Golf Club I've never played here, but a few friends have, and rave about it.

I'm not sure of the level of everyone involved, you'll have to assess that otherwise just pick a local muni or go further out to a course like Lakeview Golf Course that can accomodate and will be easier for all levels.

Cheers, Allan

i'm probably the best out of the group, couple others are decent and the rest are all over the place but they just enjoy being out drinking and getting a few good shots a day.
I like playing hard courses, its a challenge. its not fun when there arent any risk reward choices. Like when you can just pull out your drive on every hole and not even worry if you're in the rough or not

Maybe a muni course would be better or something
I dont think a lot of people would want to pay 120+ + cart for a round of golf when they arent too godo

Lakeview is a "muni"... might be your best bet. Historical parkland style course, not really any forced carries, good for all levels of golfer and it certainly is one of the better values in the GTA

I know a nice course if you're willing to go to Uxbridge:

Mill Run Golf Club: I've been here many times. It's superb, and not too pricy.

I know a bit more north of Toronto. Let me know if you're interesting in hearing them.

What about Cardinal golf club?
Seems to have some really good twilight + cart rates

What about Cardinal golf club?

Yeah that's also a pretty nice one too. They've got a beautiful clubhouse, and I think they just recently added another 18 or 9 holes.

The golf cart rates as well as the carts itself are also pretty swell, with the GPS ans all.

Hmmm Don Valley. I haven't heard too much about it, other than the fact that part of the course goes under Hwy 401. Sorry.

Don Valley is a short but fun course. The conditioning can be hit and miss and the final five holes are a bit quirky for my liking. However it might be a decent option for your higher handicappers. Reservations can only be made 5 days (or maybe it's 7 now) in advance and will book up very quickly.

The new course at Cardinal (Redcrest) has some great holes on the front nine and some reasonable twilight deals occasionally.

I would also suggest looking at the Durham region northeast of the city....TONS of great options if you don't mind a 45-60 minute drive from downtown.

Yup, there are a lot more courses north of TO

P.S. Ninja15, do you know what the rates are at don valley?

      I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.

      I Love Charley Hull Now and Agree With Her Completely

      I agree, until we are watching the 18th hole in the dark or waiting for the champion to finish and it's been 5+ hours

      Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though.

      This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.

      I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
