Quirky and wild in spots. If you like interesting and wild greens, you'll love this course. It is a lot of fun with more memorable holes than higher ranking courses. #2,...
Calusa Pines is your typical Hurdzan/Fry with wide fairways, raised greens, and gigantic bunkers. The conditions are spectacular and you won't find a more photogenic cour...
I had played the Blue course 3 times and the Red course only once because I favored the Blue. On my most recent trip, I played the Red again and the Black. The Black beca...
I had low expectations going into Shoal Creek. Aside from Muirfield Village, the Jack Nicklaus courses I played were underwhelming. However, I was pleasantly surprised wi...
I played Eastlake this week and after the first 4 holes I was underwhelmed. Then the rest of the course was fantastic. The par 5s are the highlight and are memorable. How...
This course is a hidden gem in Cleveland. While it is a short course, that is part of its charm and makes it an enjoyable walk. The par 3s are fantastic, among the best i...
Mayfield is a hidden gem in Northeast Ohio. A Bert Way design with little earth moving, it is quirky with many original and memorable holes. It also has some pure and sub...
I saw some pictures of the course and was debating playing because it didn't look spectacular. Boy was I wrong! I was blown away by the course. With very wide fairways th...
Forest Dunes is a fantastic public course with plenty of eye candy. While the eye candy is mostly out of play, there are some very good holes on the course and it is fun...
Crystal Downs is consistently near the top of golf course rankings and it is well deserved. While there are no weaknesses to the course, the greatest highlight is the gre...
I had the pleasure of playing Sleepy Hollow a few weeks ago. I consider myself a pretty tough critic (check out my other reviews), but this is a vastly underrated course...
Wannamoisett is only 104 acres but has tons of character. At par 69, the par 4s still play long. The routing is great, but the highlights are the bunkering and greens. Th...
Victoria National is one of Tom Fazio's best works. It is challenging off the tee, approach shots are not easy (due to the thick rough), and the greens are tough in spots...
I've had the pleasure of playing a few Seth Raynor courses, including Fishers Island and Yale. Fox Chapel is another Raynor gem. There's a good balance between long par 4...
The Dye Preserve has a stunning clubhouse. There are many professional golfers at the golf, which adds to the atmosphere when you are hitting balls on the range next to a...
Seminole is arguably the best work of Donald Ross, along with Pinehurst #2. It is one of the most disputed courses among rankers, but I can't see why some don't like it--...
Many people describe the course as schizophrenic due to the substantial differences between the front 9 and back 9. The front has wild, rolling terrain, which I found uni...
I can't think of a modern course that has been so controversial and has such a wide range of ratings. Some have argued it is too wild, while others say the wildness makes...
A good Coore and Crenshaw course that gets rated a little higher than it should. It is a very good course, but slap a different name on it as the architects, and it won't...
The greens here are fantastic. Great bunkering too. I had high expectations from hearing how great this Coore and Crenshaw design is. The front 9 didn't live up to my exp...
