I am going to be in Hastings later on this month . My Grand Daughter is graduating from college there. Quite an accomplishment on her part since she is only 19. 

Anyways can anyone shed some light on local golf courses in the area? Will be there for a few days as we load up her stuff for her move back home. 

If my shoulder is well enough, I'd like to play a round. There's also the time thing too.  Not sure if I ever played golf in Nebraska before. 

In My Bag:
A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

Wild Horse is about two hours away to the west in Gothenburg.  It comes in at around #70 on the latest Golf Digest Top 100 Public Courses in the US.

Awarii Dunes is about an hour away to the west just south of Kearney.  It's a Jim Engh design.  

If you're coming from Omaha, there's a course called Quarry Oaks just southwest of Omaha off I80.

Full disclosure: I've never actually played any of these courses unfortunately but being from northwest Iowa these are the courses I most often hear about when discussing that area.  (Other than Sand Hills/Dismal River/Prairie Club)  Maybe some posters from Nebraska can give you more insight into the courses available in that area.

    • I kind of like this interpretation especially if you think about it the unplayable rule would probably put you in a better spot.  using back on the line releief.  
    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.
