We'll be spending a week at a rental house in Marathon, FL this April. 

Can anyone help me find a good executive golf course (or two) in the general area where we could play? My father and brother will be playing as well, and last time (Maria Island, FL) we vacationed together I picked a really crappy course and I'm kind of embarrassed by it still. I'd like to take them somewhere nicer.

Any recommendations would be highly appreciated! I know this is sort of limited in terms of area, but if we had to make a drive I don't think anybody would mind. Even Key West is only 1 hour away. That would be perfectly acceptable.

It looks like there's a decent 9-hole par 3 course near us that we'll probably go to as well, but I'd like to play an executive course too.

I would say our budget is $100 ea. If you find anything you'd recommend that more than that let me know, I may play on my own one day and if the course is worth it I wouldn't mind playing by myself. But I won't tell my father how much it is because he'd kill me :)

Thanks!

      47+49 for a 96. Just lost it today. Two way miss off the tee. Could not hit a decent iron. Three putted like at least 8 holes. Not good when the short game is the best part of the day 😭😭

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      Phillyk is very close by. Ok, I understand how the watch and tags are meant to be used, but I was just curious how it actually works. I can't really think of any other way than what I mentioned above. No worries. If it works it works. I'll probably pick one up. My co-worker mentioned a free app called 18 Birdies which offers similar services. However I personally do not like keeping my phone in my pocket while golfing, nor do I want to be clicking around on the phone while out on the course. I toss my phone in my bag and leave it there until I am done golfing. Tapping a club head to a watch seems wat more convenient.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By GolfLug ·

      Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.
