I am leaving on a 4 day trip to Innisbrook today.  We are playing Copperhead, the Island course twice and the North course.  To me it will be especially interesting because I have the Island course on my golf simulator.  I got it recently and have played it a bunch.  I have never played a course that I have played on the simulator.

I am very excited.  Probably setting myself up for disappointment.  At the end of last season I started scoring a lot better.  My ball striking improved, it showed itself in greens hit and proximity to the hole.  I finally became more connected.  It limits my big misses and makes my distance control much better.  That good play has continued on the simulator.  I am hoping to throw up at least a couple good rounds.  We will see.

Has anyone done Innisbrook?

You'll be surprised at the number of hills for a Florida course. Very nice resort all around and the weather here the next 4 days looks perfect for golf. A little chilly in the morning but nice all afternoon. Enjoy!

Had a chance to do it 4 years ago during a trip to the Tampa area but got rained out. Went down and played Waterlefe down in Bradenton instead. Very nice 'resort' type, super manicured course. 

Hit 'em well! Always nice to catch a good break from the cold.

Thanks, I filled my travel humidor with some nice Rocky Patels for the trip.

I played in the Golf Channel end of year tournament here 2 years ago.  We played Copperhead, Island, North (and Fox Hollow off the Innisbrook facility).  I liked Copperhead the best.  It seemed like the course that was tough but fair.  Was cool playing the "snake pit."  I don't think it's as snaky as it reputation implies though.  Seems like the Island was my least favorite, really narrow and if you missed the fairway those scrubby trees kinda sucked up your ball. 

Had a blast though and really enjoyed the experience (even though it was some of my crappiest golf for the season).  Hope you have a great time too.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
