I am coming down to Florida for a few days on a family trip and I have basically free reign to play golf. I am hoping to play at least one round and hopefully three. I will be staying at Star Island Resort just south of Orlando basically in Kissimmee. Does anyone have any course recommendations? Looking to play on Thursday August 3rd afternoon and hopefully early Friday morning and then in the afternoon. Definitely will get in a round  that Friday. Not looking to break the bank but I will spend for some nice courses. Looking for no more than a 30 minute drive. Let's hear your suggestions and let me know if you can join!!!

In my bag:

There are a TON of threads on this very subject.  A quick search will get you there.

My first recommendation is always either or both of the courses at Orange County National.  They used to host the finals of the PGA Tour Q-school every other year. Tremendous facility.  But again, do a search and you'll come up with plenty more to consider.

I know I did a little bit but I also wanted to post a thread just in case I could find a TST member to play with! I'm definitely going to look at OCN.

As a new guy in Orlando, I'll offer up Disney's Magnolia & Buena Vista, as well as Dubsdread golf course as three that I have really enjoyed so far.  I've haven't played a round at OCN yet, but have used their practice facility (which is excellent).

Have fun!

    • Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.
    • Day 139: worked on putting for a while. Did the two cups drill for bead. 
    • It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno…. 
    • Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
