I have lived in Texas my whole life and played hundreds of Texas golf courses. I read an article on the Texan Post featuring a former tour pro's rankings of the top ten courses in Texas and thought it was worth sharing. I have played 6 of these courses and loved them all: http://www.texanpost.com/2012/08/09/featured-guest-jay-reynolds-top-texas-golf-courses/

It was a real shame to see Pecan Valley close its doors.  I've played Whispering Pines and Austin CC but none of the other top 10, primarily because I usually play public golf courses.

yea they are going to turn pecan valley into a 9 hole course for disabled vets. but some hoa are against that idea. me and a couple family members are spending a week end in a couple of months up at S.A. going to play Bandit and Republic golf courses. labor day bunch of guys from work are going to La Cantara G.C.

That link missed tons of gr8 golf courses and any top 10 Texas list w/o Whispering Pines at the top is not credible (always makes Americas top 100)

Horseshoe Bay Ram Rock, TPC Las Colinas, Champions Golf Club, Woodlands Tournament Course, Dallas National GC just a few that were missed. Tons of gr8 courses in this state

    • The driver swing honestly feels good. Haven't played in a/the course for a bit but did pretty good at the sim place yesterday.  The idea has been to reduce twisting shaft instinctively at impact. For this have weakened left hand grip considerably. Pushed higher up in the hollow of the palm to take out index finger and thumb in pressure application which is a major are major contributors of shaft twisting at impact. On the flip side, right hand grip is way down in the lower part of the middle fingers. Not using index or thumb much at all. It also is designed to prevent getting underneath the shaft too much at impact. More of a float-loady  'paint the ball' feel through the ball. Overall address and neutral grip keeps both lead and trail sides on respective sides of the shaft instead of over or underneath the shaft. It seems it allows/promotes moving the shaft/club unit in unison with wrist/elbow/shoulder joints similar to an elephant swinging it's trunk. It does not feel like I am guiding the club path or trying to control club face at all. Fairly organic. Playing TPC Sawgrass in about a month. Will see how it all holds up. I hear its a good test.. heh.
    • Day 235 (24 Dec 24) - Rainy Christmas Eve day - worked on putting stroke by rolling a few on the carpet.  Lagging for distance was goal using a version of the ladder drill - started off by going up - 1st step about 3’ - and then stepping a bit higher with each successive roll.  Then stepping down the ladder with each roll resulting in a bit shorter roll.  A fun drill where pace is key.
