Going to be in Louisville, KY beginning of March this year. Its my first trip to KY! I see online a few courses like Wildwood, Crescent Hill, Quail Chase, Big Spring, Seneca and dozens of others. There are so many differing opinions - I wondered if anyone could recommend a great course? We only have one day free for a 4 ball, so recommendations would be very welcome. Thanks.

I live in Louisville. Seneca and Quail Chase are very nice courses, I'd definitely recommend both. If you are staying in downtown or the east end, Seneca will be the closest of the two.

Another option, if you are willing to drive over to Indiana (about 15-20 minutes up I-65 from downtown), Fuzzy Zoeller's Covered Bridge is a nice course too. Check it out here: http://www.fuzzygolf.com/

Schultz, thanks very much for this and Covered Bridge looks beautiful. If I have enough time it's easily worth a short drive out.

Thanks again

Mark

Been years since I've played any public courses in Louisville now that I'm a country club snob.  :-(

(Wildwood and Big Spring are private BTW)

Keep in mind that weather and course conditioning is not the best the beginning of March, so it will be kind of a crap shoot.

I would recommend Fuzzy's courses as well, he has two in the same area, both are semi-private.  They are zoysia fairways however, so they will still be dormant the beginning of March.  I don't know if that will bother you.

Nevel Meade and Heritage Hills are two other public courses.  Nevel is more of a links style with bent fairways, which is unusual for a pubic course.

I've been trying to find a way to play Valhalla for years and no luck. If anyone knows of a way to do it,  I'd love to know.

Establishing  a relationship with a Valhalla member and playing as a guest is the most likely way.  As far as I know they still allow unaccompanied guest play, although if memory serves it costs more.  You still need a member to set it up, however

I'm not a member, sorry.

We had a member set up out tee time, but we played unaccompanied.

Thanks all, and hopefully people I'm with will want to play - seems a long way to come just to sit in a downtown bar!!

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.

      I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
