I'm heading to the Tampa/Orlando area first week of December for a golf weekend.

I haven't booked yet, so which is the better area - Tampa or Orlando?

Any particular courses that are better than others?

Thanks!!

Orlando-only one i've heard about is Falcon Fire Golf Course

Tampa-I live in Tampa, and there's a few good golf courses around here: Pebble Creek Golf Course, Heritage Isles Golf Course, Avila Golf Course, Palma Ceia....and some I WOULD NOT recommend you go to are The Claw at USF (i sometimes play here, its jsut not maintained well), Hidden Gunn Golf course is in the ghetto, i only drove past it but have heard that the people who work at the course suck...so anyway, those are some of the ones i would say play and don't play

I live in the Orlando area and can attest to the Disney courses being nice to play. I live on the east side of town, away from all of the tourist traps. Over here, there are several quality golf courses that are cost efficient and challenging, to me at least. Stoneybrook East, Twin Rivers in Oviedo, and Eastwood are decent courses. I just played a course not too long ago in the St. Cloud area that is set up just like a British Links course. It had huge pot bunkers, rolling fairways and very fast greens. You should also look into the Celebration Golf Course next door to Disney.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
