  1.   Tobacco Road

    A beautiful course to say the least. Located in the Sandhills of NC, just outside of Sanford, NC and 25-30 miles from Pinehurst, NC.  This is a course like no other that you have ever played. Everyone should play this course at least once.

  3.   Glen Lake Golf & Practice Center

    This 9 hole, par 31, executive course is one of my favorite ways to spend a Sunday morning. It is a great opportunity to pull out the irons you don't use as much on a full course. There are a couple of holes which could warrant a driver, but I like to leave it in the car and fine tune the strategy with the other clubs, here. The course is well maintained. Green speeds are a bit inconsistent, but generally slower than other courses in the area. There is a strong focus on learning and youth involvement, so the pace can get a bit slower in the afternoons, but I've never found it to be unreasonably slow.

  4.   Brookview Golf Course

    Brookview's regulation course is a beautiful muni that great for walking. The course is in great shape. It is reasonably long, but distance is rarely the focus on this course. Instead, much of the challenge comes from narrow fairways and tricky water/sand hazards requiring course management and strategic shot making. The holes crossing Bassett Creek (3, 4, 7, 15, 16) were my favorites, each requiring their own unique layup vs hero shot decisions. I found it necessary to prioritize hitting fairways over distance on drives as the rough is a bit longer and thicker than many other local courses. The practice area is a bit lacking in that there is no real space for chipping/pitching, but there is a good driving range with multiple clear distance targets and a modest putting green. There is also a par 3 course here, but I have not played that. Overall, I really enjoyed this course, will definitely play there again.

  5.   Boulder Pointe Golf Club

    A decent course that is challenging without being too difficult. Better suited for cart golf as there are multiple longer treks between holes. Water comes into play on 14 of 18 holes. The front 9 is more open, back 9 has narrower fairways and more layup/course management type holes. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens are generally in good shape. Bunker and cart path maintenance is lacking, which is unfortunate. If better maintained, this would be a very nice course.

  6.   Raintree

    An underrated muni located on the south side of Akron. Designed by local architect Brian Huntley, it is a great layout with fantastic challenges. There are lots of risk-reward holes, especially the par 5s on the front which both challenge your second shots with lakes guarding the greens. None of the par 5s are that long, but there is plenty of distance on many of the par 4s, and some longer par 3s. The best par 3 is #11 which is tucked into a small valley with a creek guarding the front of a redan green. There are a fair amount of lakes and creeks that come into play. The creeks are most notable on the par 4 #14, and the par 5 #18, the latter forces you to navigate over two creeks and a pond. Tough greens that are on the faster side. Get above the hole and 3-putts are common. Stretches to just under 6800 from the back tees.

  7.   TPC Danzante Bay - Loreto Mexico

    The only TPC course in Mexico. Played in April 2023. Was a bit warm for April but the course was in great condition as you would expect any TPC course to be. Challenging yet relatively straight forward that it felt like a good play for various skill levels or handicaps. Staff was awesome and helpful. Pace of play could not have been better, played solo for all 3 rounds averaging about 3 hours a round. Course consists of 3 very distinct environments: Dunes, Canyons and Desert all with their own quirks. Greens and bunkers were all immaculate. We also stayed at the adjoining Via del Palomar resort which was equally nice, but be firm with them on not attending to the timeshare presentation. 4 hour time suck. Really nice all inclusive resort. The town of Loreto is an easy 30 minute car trip from town and is very inviting with great food and bars if you make a day trip. Easy to access with direct flights on a number of airlines. 10/10- would go back and already planning my next visit

  9.   Old Works Golf Course (Anaconda, MT)

    Played here last week and it was a super unique experience. For those of you who don't know, the course is built on the top of an old Copper Mine in the middle of Anaconda, MT. The EPA took over the property in the 90s after it was classified an disaster site and then gave money to have Jack Nicklaus come in and design a course.

    The design has a very scenic front 9 with a back 9 that people often say isn't as pretty, but I quite liked. Nicklaus incorporates the former copper mine into the design, with various old artifacts from the mine being course obstacles. Also, the "sand" in the pits is ground up copper slag, which freaked my partner out a little at first but was actually fun and cool.

    Love the 4th and 8th hole on the front as they're very unique. And the 10th Hole which has you going across a river on the approach to the green is very fun and quite a challenge if you don't try to lay up

    Great range and they actually have 3 practice holes too, which is unique and cool.

    Staff was incredibly friendly. Round is 100 bucks a head though and not quite sure it's worth that. Also played Bridger and Canyon Creek while there and personally think both those courses, which are slightly cheaper than Old Works, are a better value.

    Still, if you find yourself in Montana, highly recommend.

  10.   TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley

    For golfers in the greater Toronto area (GTA) or those coming to Toronto, Ontario, Toronto is home to many excellent courses. Many of the best are private. Think St. George’s, Weston, Toronto golf club, the National, the Pulpit, Paintbrush just to mention a few.  Of the courses open to the public, one of the true gems is TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley. It is currently, the only TPC (tournament players club) designated facility in Canada. Located in Caledon, Ontario, it is approximately 40 min from Pearson airport or an hour from downtown Toronto. TPC Toronto offers you 3 very different courses, each ranked within the top 60 courses in Canada.  All three were designed by Doug Carrick. Scenic, serene and walkable. The most scenic of the three is Hoot, a wasteland bunker style course (think Pine Valley and the wasteland courses of North Carolina) The third harkens to the Carolina’s, featuring majestic tall pines lining the fairway.  You get very different views depending upon which tee box you play. A challenging, but lovely course to play and walk. 

    Heathlands is the first course you see driving into the property and is a links style course and the hardest of the three with its mounds, fescue, sloping greens and ever present wind. If you keep the ball in the fairway, it’s an absolute joy and treat to play.  To score well on Heathlands, you need to place the ball well on the greens.  The wind is the great equalizer in that on some days it maybe a 2 or even 3 club difference. The greens can be tricky as you need to get speed and break correct. The Osprey Valley open is part of the Fortinet cup of the PGA Tour of Canada is held on the Heathlands course. 

    The North (formerly Toot) is the parklands style course and is currently undergoing major renovations into the tournament course. The current North features generous landing areas and large undulating greens.   As part of the renovations, for the pros, the course will be lengthened, fairways narrowed, new strategically placed bunkers. E.g. the new par 5 13th is now a visually stunning and challenging par 5 with a good deal of risk and reward 

    The staff are very friendly and welcoming, the courses are kept in meticulous condition with a great practice and putting facility. The course marshals ensure pace of play is generally very good, (4 hours to 4:15 in general).  On the odd occasion when your buddy doesn’t show and you get one of the early morning slots, you can fly. Quickest round for me was 2 hours. You never get bored as you can rotate among the three great courses and makes you want to come back again and again. Pricing is reflective of an upper end course ($115 Cdn or $90 USD Mon -Thursday, $130 Cdn or $100 USD Fri - Sunday). Massive changes are being made to transition TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley into a destination golf resort with new clubhouses, on-site accommodation, new practice, short game and putting practice facilities and the renovated North course, aka the tournament course.  It will also be the new home for Golf Canada. Overall, highly recommended, a real treat to play all 3 courses and a definite must visit and play. For more information see www.Ospreyvalley.com

  11.   Porters Neck Country Club, Wilmington, NC

    Porters Neck is owned and operated by the McConnell Group.  A big advantage is being able to play any of the 15 courses owned/operated by McConnell. John McConnell bought Porters Neck three years ago.  Previously the course was member owned and lacked from management and finances.  Since Mr. McConnell bought PNCC he has brought in a new management team and things have been completely turned around.  There is a new irrigation system, all bunkers have been rebuilt,  course has gone through an updating by changing fairway width, adding tee boxes,  strategically placing new bunkers, and cart paths have been repaired or replaced.  Overall condition has been significantly upgraded.

    The course is a Tom Fazio design built in 1991.  I have been a member for 16 years and never tire of playing it.  I use to play the Gold, Blue, and White tees. As age is catching up with me I now play White and White Hybrid tees.  This is a great golf course and enjoyable but very challenging.

      Fairview Golf Course

    Country club shape all the time; only a few straight holes. Greens can be a bit slow at times, however this probably part of the magic that keeps them plush and not burning out. We are quite fortunate to have such a gem in a small town!! Keep up the good work, much appreciated.

  15.   Timerstone Golf Course

    This course in Iron Mountain is a beautiful course that is cut into the side of a ski hill in the lower portion of the UP. That being said, the course is tight (especially for a hack like me) and you'll be penalized if you're not straight off the tee. There are some tiered greens and some significant undulations in some of the greens that make it a lot different from what I'm used to. The 17th and 18th holes are the signature holes and have some major elevation change and give some great views. Clubhouse and practice areas small, but well maintained and serve their purpose. Stay and play packages are offered, making this a nice and easy one stop shop for a great outing. 

    I'd definitely recommend if you're in the area!

  18.   Cossett Creek

    Difficult layout with average, but improving conditions. Front 9 is pretty open, back 9 is much tougher placement style golf. Small turtleback greens that are usually on the slower side, and no bunkers. Hilly course, that has a creek and valley that cuts through the middle of the property. It's a tougher walk, but not exhausting. Course can be very wet after a rain, but they have fixed a lot of their irrigation and drainige issues. Play to the front of greens because in drier weather they can firm up quickly. They have also removed dozens of trees from the property to help open up holes and make the course more playable. Affordable (under $50 on weekends) and easy to get a tee time. 3 sets of tees, stretching to 6600.

  19.   Coppertop

    A short but challenging course in Medina county. The course itself is in pretty good shape with plenty of water that comes into play with small ponds and a creek that wanders through the property. Also there are some serious elevation changes on several holes. Some are very unique, like the par 4 5th hole and the par 5 15th which play over a ridge in the middle of the course. New ownership about 4 years ago has really turned the course into an enjoyable and respectable place to play. The course had a reputation as a party course, and tee time factory, but for the most part that seems to be a thing of the past. 3 1/2 sets of tees because on some holes the yellow & red (or seniors/ladies) share the same box. The scorecard states the course is almost 6300 from the tips, but it is much, much shorter than that, barely 6000 even. Still a good test, even at that short distance.

  20.   Turkeyfoot Lake

    A short but challening course in Akron. It streatches to 6300 from the tips, and most of that length is on the front 9. The course is always in fantastic shape, even after days of rain, they will be off the cart path. The greens are arguably the nicest in Cleveland, but are also in the running for the toughest. Given that the course is short, this makes sense from a design standpoint as it provides most of the defense for the course. Plenty of bunkers throughout, but only one real water hazard on the par-3 13th. And even that is really only in play for a very poorly stuck or fat tee shot. The course never closes, due to their superior drainage, so it provides a haven for the hardcores during the winter as well.

  21.   Mannville Riverview Golf Course

    Mannville Riverview has been my home course since 2008. At 5670 yards, the course's defence is the rough and anything less than sound ball striking and smart course management will bring angst and aggravation. In addition to narrow fairways, thick, heavy rough, fast sloping greens & numerous elevation changes, there are water hazards that can have you at times pleading for religious intervention. Very few golfers get around the course without taking one or more penalty strokes.MannvilleRiverviewGCHole3Par3163ydsb.jpg.bba2ca51c8869982638ea65592b24924.jpg

    The river valleys diverse landscape is a perfect canvas for a memorable layout. Every hole can provide a Kodak moment if you take the time to look.

    Fantastic golf, friendly staff, a well-stocked pro shop, a great restaurant and an expansive outdoor deck offer visitors a reason to come back. If you decide to stay for awhile, there are over 40 RV sites on the grounds. There certainly is good value in having a membership at your local course and at Mannville the value doesn't get any better.

  22.   Manchester Golf Club

    Heathland course with tonnes of variation hole to hole. You don't play a single switchback so each hole feels very new and unique. Tough on the legs if you are not used to hills but buggies available. Slower greens than those in the US will be used to but in the summer it's kept very very well and the rough is punishing. Very handy to have a rangefinder with slope as there are some elevation changes from tee to green that can catch you out.

  23.   Eaglewood Golf Course at Langley Air Force Base

    This is a pretty nice track. Just under 6200 yards if your playing from the Gold tees.  It's links style course and pretty flat.  There are no water hazards on the front 9 other than marsh along the the the 6th hole fairway.  The back nine is much nicer, lots of water in play and the fairways seem to be a bit narrower.  Like many of the military golf courses I've played on, maintenance of the grounds is not a high priority.  I'm hoping that as the season goes on, the grass cutting in the fairways and on the greens get better.
