Treetops is great. It's hard to match the layout they have.. few places can use that much land for a golf course. It's in a hilly area, carved out of a beautiful forest. Garland and Boyne are also fantastic golf resorts. Each one of them has several excellent courses, and on-site accommodations - hotels or condos depending on group size. You can usually find some good package rates for a great golf trip. Basically, that whole area, NW corner of the lower peninsula around Traverse City, is packed with top notch golf courses.

Different people have different goals.. I track my performance just as a way to gauge my improvement as a golfer. I haven't entered tournaments, and the only people I bet with are my buddies who know my game. So, to me, an official index is useless. I have a goal to get down to a mid single digit (5-6) index, so I keep track to measure my progress. I also like having the handicap differential for a round, factoring in course rating and slope, since I try many new courses it's a good way to judge true performance on a wide variety of courses. In past years, I did track my index through the NCGA (Nothern California Golf Association). It's not like there is someone checking the validity of submissions at the course or for Internet submissions. On the other hand, most of the incorrect submissions I have seen were reverse sandbagging.. Guys not playing by the rules, taking lower scores than they deserved and getting their vanity handicap low.

I found this really old thread via a Google search looking for a Mac swing analysis software package.. I assume that since V1 still does not have Mac support that this project was never completed. Any other updates on this? Did you begin any work on this? It doesn't seem like a basic version would be difficult, for someone familiar with QuickTime development. But, I have not found anything available, or taken the leap into learning QT.
