I am looking for courses in the area(i just moved) and hoping to get there in the next week or two.

My family has a cottage about 20 minutes away from Crystal Downs Country Club in Frankfort, MI. I've never played it, but my grandpa was a member and my uncle is as well, and I have heard it is fantastic. I just started playing last summer, so I hope to work my way up to it's level some day.

I was talking about Tiger quitting at TPC on #7 Sunday this year. Nevermind, go on back to your video game.

Toledo, OH Inverness Club



Myrtle Beach- The World Tour. I know there are some great courses down there, but I haven't been there since I was 17 and this was my favorite of the courses we played that week.

Las Vegas, NV- I got to golf a bunch of course out there when I was living there. Some of my favorites.

Bali Hai- With the S. LV Boulvard as the backdrop, Tom Fazio design. A great course.



Reflection Bay- This course is currently closed, apparently as June of this year. They say its still be maintained, but the economy out there is not good. Damn shame because I love this Jack Nicklaus design.



Possibly the best I've ever played, including Inverness. The course at the Wynn. If you want to play in the middle of the summer and in the middle of the week...you can get on for 300 and its worth every penny.

Great course. My friends are members there. Played it 5 times. The greens are impossible to keep a ball on. Im talking US Open fast. I hit a sand wedge from the fairway and couldnt hold it.

I dont know about current ranking, but Im positive it was the top course in the midwest. Probably still is.

I really like windy knoll in springfield
Windy Knoll is going to be sweet when it matures a little bit more. They are running specials nearly every weekend now $25 a person if you have a 4some.

Agree on World Tour.. just played there at the end of July for the first time. Played all 27 for $69 other than it being hotter than hell I loved it.
