Every year the owner of my company puts together a golf trip, and for the first year I have decided to join. Previous years were not far enough south to justify the expense, but this year is Orlando at the beginning of March. Well be playing Bay Hill, Hawk's Landing and The Ritz-Carlton Orlando. My co-worker (and golf buddy) try to travel south annually to get some golf in, so this year we jumped on the company trip. Definitely looking forward to playing outside again. Simulator golf is fine, but it's just not the same as walking 18.

Bay Hill is a nice walk with a caddie. I've never played Hawks Landing, but the Ritz might be a pain in the butt to walk. Also, if your courses are flexible, Tranquilo or The New Course at Grand Cypress is a much better bang for your buck kind of course IMO. Enjoy Orlando!

I doubt we'll be walking any of them. As much as I prefer to walk, when I travel I generally take a cart. Of the 100ish rounds I play per year, the only times I cart is when I travel or play in a scramble. Other than that, I'm walking.

As for the courses, the person that set it up has some sort of package deal. My buddy's parent's live in Kissimmee, so it's possible we'll stay an extra day and play somewhere else. Thanks for the suggestions.

I though Orange County National was much better bang for the buck than Ritz. I think we payed half for OCN and the holes were a bit more 'exiting'.

C'mon guys, I have no say in the courses. Stop telling me about the other ones that are better. 

Sorry dude, most folks like suggestions for future. Great season to visit. Have fun!
