I don't know what I'm going to do with it. I'm pretty loyal to my Scotty. I guess it's nice to have a spare toy in the house.

Went to the Golf Galaxy Advantage Club event last Thursday and bought some replacement spikes...ending up winning this too:

Hunter Mahan -13

I think we'll be booking in the next couple weeks. Right now we are targeting Barefoot Love and TPC as 2 of our 3. I'm assuming these two are pretty different.

Lefty and Judge, thanks again for the insight. I can hardly wait to get down there. I'm interested to hear what you guys think about Prestwick after playing. I don't know if you've been to the website, but the chirping birds and etherial background music kind of cracks me up. Course looks great though.

Thanks, both of those look outstanding. I do have a question about three different courses that have piqued my interest as well. Does anyone have any experience with the following: Legends Heathland, Moorland, and Prestwick. All those seem very aesthetically pleasing, and I'm a sucker for links style layouts.

Thx for the great info! We're staying at the Carribean Resort, which I assume is Center. We'll probably try to keep travel times at a minimum, but you never know.

Given, and I've done that. Recently there have been a couple good threads, but some of the better ones date back to 2008 as a start date. Things have obviously changed since then, and with the rough summer and wet winter, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask for some recent suggestions. To me, a large majority seem pretty spectacular. And since I don't have a set itinerary, I can't really ask for proper feedback on the courses I've selected. I was hoping someone would be able to give me some honest suggestions since I don't know anything down there (if you go by pictures alone they all look nice); maybe offer a unique perspective, preferences, or some definite advice on courses to avoid.

I hate to be redundant, but I'm gonna start a new thread anyway. I'm heading down to Myrtle for the first time ever in early July. It's a family vacation with some friends, but me, my buddy, and his father in law will probably break away for up to 3 rounds. The only definite is we will be playing Barefoot Fazio or Love. I need suggestions for two more, other than Caledonia or True Blue. Thanks!

Glad to hear you made it out. Hopped on at Shawnee with a few buddies around 12:30. Hadn't been out for over two months (since a debacle at Chariot Run). The course was surprisingly dry and snow free. Hopefully my next round isn't another 2 months away!

I have a similar story. Last summer I was playing with two of my buddies. When we teed off we didn't have anyone, or see anyone, in front of us for the first seven holes. Of course we thought we recieved some lucky tee time and were going to get at least 9 clear holes in. Anyway, we are standing on the box for the eighth hole and it is a completely blind tee shot. One of my friends, who has the ability at times to hit it a country mile if everything goes right, cranks one down the middle of the fairway, far outdriving me and my other friend (both of us pushed right and short). As we drove up the hill and the rest of the fairway came into view, we found a group of older guys standing in the fairway, presumably waiting for the group in front of them to finish putting. We found the first two drives that were pushed right and looked all over the fairway and rough for the monter drive. As we're preparing to give up on it, stymied and frustrated, one of the older guys calls to us "Hey, are you looking for a ball?". We of course reply yes, we're looking for a Srixon. This guy looks back at us and says, "I'd check that drainage ditch over there". So we look into a wide concrete ditch, at least 20 yards shorter and further right than either of the balls me and my other friend hit, and find the Srixon. Sure enough, after this jerk gave us his "suggestion" on where the ball might be, he and his group hop in their carts and bolt for the green. After we finished our last two holes we looked for these guys at the turn to air our grievances and they were nowhere to be found.

I have to believe most of the munis will be open. Talked to a guy at Golf Galaxy that said he had some buddies that played Seneca recently in the cold. I think Glenmary is likely open, and most of the tracks in Southern Indiana should be good too (Covered Bridge, Champions Pointe, Hidden Creek, and Wooded View). Of course they are all going to be a bit soggy, so I'd look into the Fuzzy courses for drainage reasons alone.

I think it's fantastic. Yes it's overplayed, but it's a lot of fun too.

Golf galaxy. It was the most I had ever spent on a single club in the bag. It was also the only club I've ever purchased with zero buyer's remorse.
