My favorites are Royal Dornoch in Scotland and Lahinch in Ireland.

Boogielicious, I'll have to check my atlas, but I'm pretty sure Hawaii is still part of the USA.

Unless you played in Maui in the 1800s, it's in the US.

I played there August 20, 1959 :-)

Fair point, but I was thinking Continental US.

Turnberry (my favorite by far)

Old Course

Carnoustie

Prestwick

I'm kinda a traditionalist :-)

A pilgrimage to Scotland is sure worth it. It is truly something else.

There was a course I played in the Philippines back in 1987, we did a trip to a local Country Club and we stopped at this resort and played the course that was there. It's was right on the Ocean and was beautiful course. I haven't had much of a chance to play other courses outside the US, played a couple in Cancun that weren't that great.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

One of the perks of a Navy career is the opportunity to travel and play around the globe. The first four that come to mind, all tied for "best."

Moorea Green Peal - Golf Course of Polynesia - Papeete, Tahiti

Keppel Club - Singapore

Any of the three courses in Dubai, UAE

Sasebo, Japan - can't recall or find the name but it was built on a mountain by the Army Corp of Engineers after WWII. We survived a monsoon at the turn during our second round.

I have a mile long list of bucket list courses but this is the only one I have crossed off so far

The Himalayan Golf Course in Pokhara Nepal, playing there was simply astonishing, like walking into a hallucination. I took hundred of photos but none of them captured why it was so special

      One Swing With Many Clubs, or One Club With Many Swings?

      By GaLefty ·

      If I can take a full swing, I'll use the stock club for that yardage.Β  I can't really get creative.Β  Just don't have that ability.Β  In the past, I used a sand wedge for all my shots around the green, opening or closing the face and moving the ball back or forward in my stance to get the flight I wanted.Β  I am trying now to use different clubs around the green.Β  I'm less likely to flub it but I struggle with distance control.Β  More practice required.
