 None, playing one course day after day, no matter how great or nice it is, can be boring after a month of two. 

I don't think that's the exact question being asked though. It's "if you could play any course for free for the rest of your life", not "if you had to play one course for the rest of your life". At least that's how I read it.

If I was limited to just one course for the rest of my golfing life, it would be Spyglass at Pebble Beach. I love playing that course. That would be Heaven for me.

While we are at it, Hell would be that Rockwood course near Ft Worth

Yeah again I don't think the OP means you're limited to one course. You can pay to play at other courses but this "dream" course would be free.

You are probably right, but I would answer the OP  the same way. Just a first impression when I first read it. If I could play Spyglass for free, I'd move there, and only play it. Well, maybe sneak a few rounds in on Pebble, and some of the fine courses in that area every once in awhile. .

Furnace Creek Resort in summer could probably give it a run for its money being in Death Valley and all.  Hear it is a beautiful course, maybe one day when I get back out that way to visit family I can play it.

Myself and some golfing buddies play Furnace Creek every August. We all roll our RVs down there, set up our camp and make a week of it. It is a nice course, and at below sea level it can get down right hot there. In the mid to high 120s*F is pretty common there.

I have read about a tournament they host every year, have you ever played it?  I don't know how my body would respond to that kind of heat, I grew up in Vegas so a dry heat is something I know well but that is crazy hot.

If I lived near Augusta, it would be that course, definitely!! Around here, I'd choose Sahalee or Tumble Creek.

      Day 135 (27 Apr 24) - played Bradford Creek today while waiting for the missus fly in from her extended visit with the grands.  Good day to stay focused as it was a hurry up (groups pressing from behind) and wait (groups taking their time ahead)…a good day to stay mentally in the game - play the shot and not get frustrated in the waiting…

      Day 122: 4/27/24 Supposed to be a Stack training day but I was beat after yard work today. Practiced chipping and putting at The Creek. The practice green is pretty slow but the session went well.

      Went to the range today and was cursing myself when I got there as I realized I forgot my phone. I added an earlier wrist hinge to the short backswing I was using last time practicing and ball strikes were really good for the most part. I'm heading back to Boston Thursday to see friends and family and have a couple of rounds planned so I'm hoping to keep this feeling.  Yesterday morning I weighed in at 232. My goal had been 230 but maybe now it's 220. I'll have to think about that. I feel so much better without the extra 90 lbs. from 2 years ago. Still a softl slightly less protruding belly so it might be time to go hard on eating better. Work in progress.
