I played a 9 and 7 in there as well, but can't disclose the courses



Come on, the underlying purpose of this topic is to brag where we have played this summer ...


It's not fair because they are not finished yet.  Obviously he gives the new course at Dismal a 9 which means....Ouch.  No shame in a 7.


John, I haven't made that 17-mile drive yet.

My last ten:

St. Catharines G&CC (multiple rounds), St. Catharines, ON, Canada
Muirfield Village GC (x2), Dublin, OH, USA
Wedgewood G&CC, Powell, OH, USA
Scioto CC, Columbus, OH, USA
The Medallion Club, Westerville, OH, USA
Longaberger GC, Nashport, OH, USA
Glencairn GC, Halton Hills, ON, Canada
National GC of Canada, Woodbridge, ON, Canada
Bethpage State Park - Black Course, Farmingdale, NY, USA
Southampton GC, Southampton, NY, USA

Of those ten, using my own scale, I've played one 9, one 8, two 7's, one 6, two 5's, two 4's and one 2.

This list takes me back to May 24th and it's almost not fair to stop at ten choices, especially since my 11th course was played the same day as my tenth (Southampton GC)

Interestingly enough, my 11-20 list might be a bit stronger, with two 10's but a couple duds in the mix too.

Interesting thread......   I can't keep up with you guys, I play a lot of golf, but on mostly very pedestrian courses!

My last 10:

Camden Country Club (many, many times)
Greenville Country Club (Chanticleer)
Greenville Country Club (Riverside)
Woodlands Country Club (very average)
Mid-Carolina Country Club (less than average)
Country Club of Lexington (average, but with a new Super from Sage Valley in spectacular condition)
Palmetto Golf Club (great, as always)
Windemere Country Club (fairly good true Pete/PB Dye design in Columbia, they each did nine holes)
Columbia Country Club (pretty good Ellis Maples design)
Northwoods Country Club (average PB Dye)

My upcoming list is a little more inspiring......

Charlotte Country Club (Ross)
Pine Needles (Ross)
Mid-Pines (Ross)
Southern Pines (Ross)
Ballyhack (Lester George)
Dixie Cup (mostly Lester)

I'm also hoping to get down to Augusta Country Club to play with Mark soon.....

I rarely travel with clubs and am now arguing/debating with my buddy whether we will trek up to Pittsburgh for Oakmont and Laurel Valley during our trip to Morgantown for the West Virginia-LSU game at the end of September. I am a heavy "no" lean on the golf but looking at my list above... perhpas I should reconsider... you know... broaden my horizons and all.

Greg,
If going that way you should play Pete Dye Golf Club in Bridgewater and Pikewood National in Morgantown!!

This stretches back to last year due to the deployment...from a couple weeks ago to last October

Ballyneal--9.5
Sanctuary--2.0
Palmetto--7.0
Aiken GC--6.0
Wolf Point--9.0
Trophy Club of Atlanta--1.0
Doha Golf Club--5.0
Sleepy Hollow--7.5
Friars Head--8.5
Pine Valley--10.0

That averages out to around a 6.5.  That's an average I'd love to keep.

Providence CC – 4 (multiple)
Springfield – 4
Long Leaf – 3
Pinehurst #2 – 9
Mid-South – 4
Pine Needles – 7
Tanglewood – 6
Tot Hill Farm – 7
Red Bridge – 6

Five new-to-me courses this year, six if renovated #2 is included.  5.4 avg. rating but I’ve probably over- and/or under- rated each by at least one…actually likely under- rated as I’m sure this collection could be at least 6.4, but surely aren’t a 4.4.
