I see there are already a bunch of Orlando threads here but I have my first ever destination golf trip planned so I had to post.

We will be playing:

4/16 - Southern Dunes

4/17 - Remington Gold Club in the AM and Kissimmee Bay Country Club in the afternoon

4/18 - Falcon's Fire in the AM then replay in the afternoon

4/19 - Shingle Creek Golf Club before heading back to fly home   

 

Any thoughts on these courses?  Any good local food joints in these area?

We originally looked at Myrtle Beach but bang for the buck led us to Orlando.

Hi @Gipper ,

Southern dunes is a nice course to play. I would consider to change your plans for 17/4. First because those courses are not that good and second because I'd prefer to play two courses at the same location, if I would play to different courses at one day. I suggest you play OCN (crooked cat and panther lake) or Mission inn ( El Campeon and las Colinas) instead.

For tips on food ask @David in FL

I absolutely agree with @MacDutch on the 17th.  Either would be a great alternative with OCN being closer to you.

Assuming that you're staying down around the part of Orlando where the courses you're playing are, you'll find every genre of food imaginable.

Thank you @MacDutch and @David in FL.  I will see if my father in law can change the courses on the 17th.   He worked with a company and got these as a package.  I think budget was part of it as he is paying for all the golf because I am getting the hotels.   I am a higher handicapper so I am just excited to do my first destination trip.

    • Day 316 - More swings, full backswing and full finish.
    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
