17th island green at Eagle Eye

 

Eagle Eye #17 island green is a replica of the famous TPC Sawgrass #17.  This is one of two first class courses located near East Lansing, MI only separated by a two lane road.   The other phenomenal course is Hawk Hallow.  If you are on your way up north, they both are worth the stop.

Are all the holes on one (or both?) of the courses replica holes?

They are both awesome courses. A great use of old carrot and sod farms.

    • Day 161 1-21 Backswing focus, used mirror to check position. After a few reps hit foam ball.
    • Day 19: 2026.01.21 Only managed ten minutes of slow swings indoors tonight. Same progress pieces.
    • For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...  
    • Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!
