I'm in the Oklahoma City area.  Decent municipal courses here... Earlywine, Trosper, Hefner, and Lincoln are all decent for the cash.  Best public courses are probably in the edmond area, coffee creek and kickingbird come to mind.  The Jimmie Austin OU Golf course in Norman is pretty damn good.

I live down in Altus its in the south west corner of the state. Speaking of the OU course my buddy works for their facility. I've been needing to go up there and get to play the discounted guest rate

I live in Norman -- let me know if you pass through here.  I usually play the muni -- not OU (I'm happy with Westwood, and I'm cheap too).  The OU course *is* nice though.  ...as is "The Trails".  Personally, I don't really like "The Links" which is on the border between Norman and Noble.

...I'm also heading up to Tahlequah in a few days for a conference. I don't think I'll have time to play, but if I had time to sneak away for a few holes, where would you recommend?

Glad to see I have some fellow Oklahomans on here! As far as the Tahlequah courses go, of you can only play nine holes I would play the back nine at cherry/Cherokee springs (they're in the midst of a name change) ill have to come check out that OU course, the nicest I've played is Forrest Ridge in Broken Arrow. It's a little closer to me and its tough!

I'm probably going to be doing an event or two up in Yukon or okc area soon, if anyone wants to hit a round or two when I'm in the area your more than welcome to come along.

    • Day 2: August 12.  I did 25 balls of the ruler drill from LSW for putting.  24 of the 25 stayed on the ruler through 36" but some were smoother than others.  I suspect if the ruler (and goal) had been 48" far fewer would have stayed on.  I'm trying to go by sound, and not look, since when I attempt short putts, I don't want to look (although now I wonder if that's conventional wisdom that turns out to be wrong). 
    • Day 17: did mirror work while watching TV. Working on wrist feels. 
    • Day 315 - 2025-08-12 Got a little work in before Juniors showed up for one of their Summer Sessions.
    • I always knew it as high but never that distance was 90-95% of rating! That has always played to my advantage. I never have but I could totally vanity cap myself by playing **super** long courses that are otherwise super easy. There was one course like that in LA that I used to play that helped my cap like that. The back tees were close to 7k yards, but otherwise the course was incredibly easy. Wide open, misses almost always had a play at the green from the adjacent hole, flat greens, not challenging green complexes, etc. But it got a high rating because it was so long. So I could swing hard, spray and pray, and score well (relative to my handicap).
    • Do need a special ferrul. Thanx 😉
