Do you have any course recommendations for south of Washington DC in April. We have a tee time at Independence (Tom Fazio designer), and Old Hickory closer to Washington are there any other that should not be missed?

Hi, I just booked an Arizona golf trip with Voyage Gendron for this coming April. On top of the courses included in our package we would like to play a few extra rounds. I’m looking for course suggestions in the Phoenix area and in the Tucson area. And yes the Stadium course at TPC...

Hi John, Any chances courses like Tangle Creek, Highlands/Valley would join the CentralOntarioGolf idea or are you concentrating more on courses like Shanty Bay and the like? Obviously after having lived and experienced Ottawa Valley golf, I'm anxious to make full use of those new Ping I3's....

Looking for recommendations for a course around Collingwood. I will be there in Sept for a wedding and want to get a in a round in the morning. Thanks!

Heading up that way tomorrow. Any courses that people recommend in and around Lakefield, Stony Lake, Peterborough (north end), etc? Looking for better courses, and not so much the cottage style courses you get in a lot of places.

Going on a guys trip to the Quebec City area late September, looking to mix 3 or 4 rounds in during a week. Anyone have any recommendations/experience regarding some nice courses around that area to check out? Have already ran through Google but wouldn't mind hearing some first-hand opinions...

I'm going to a cottage around the Sutton area. I know there are a few courses around, any that I should try and see or try and avoid? Going with a few guys that only play once or twice a year, so not looking for anything extravagant. Thanks!!

Looking for Recommendations. Don't need any info on Blackbear Ridge as we plan to play this one for sure. Looking for one other great course between Belleville and Kingston. It can be in Belleville too. Thanks.

Hey Everyone, First post! I'm planning a bachelor party/Golf day in Niagara Falls in September. I'm curious if anyone has courses to recommend? I know of the John Daly course, but its a bit expensive for the caliber of folks in the bachelor party. Cheers, Mat

I'm going to Winnipeg on business, will be there one day, can play one round in the afternoon. Can anyone tell me where I should play. I don't mind paying if the course is memorable and in great shape.

Rumour has it that Westminster Trails will open up on Friday April 30. At this time I have doubts as it will be very wet there. Remains to be seen I guess, depends on how much sun and wind there is between now and Friday. If I hear anything positive I will post it. Management is supposed to email...

I have some buddies going to Cozumel Mexico for a Scuba trip, so I just wanted to throw a quick tread up to see how the Golf is on the island (a Nicholas course - correct?) Also, is there other stuff to do on the island? - thanks

Anybody ever golfed in Cuba? Our package includes unlimited golf. Is it worth while to bring the clubs? Rentals are kind of expensive if we want to play more than once.

Anyone been recently, like in the last 2 months? Where did you stay? How was it? We went last year and loved it. Stayed at the Breezes Bella Costa. We're definetly going again this year but would like to try a different resort. Only problem is we are worried about not having as nice a place,...

We usually head up to the Delta Pinestone resort in Haliburton every fall. Really like the course but conditions have sometimes been suspect. Just wondering if anyone has played there this year? Thanks

I'm coming from Mississauga. Anyone care to share some backroads knowledge as to get to the course the fastest? Thanks in advance ... PS - the map on their website is not very useful for us GTA'ers. :-)

This past winter I went to Myrtle with a buddy of mine for a week of golf. It was a blast and to break up the humdrum of a long Canadian winter I would like to do something like that again. Don't know if I can afford Myrtle for a week again so I was wondering if anyone here has any cheaper...

Wondering if the discount golf club will continue this year? Had a blast the last couple of years playing the courses in the Wasaga Beach area and wondering why the list is gone. Hope it will return as the courses there are great and I am down several times during the season to play.

Rich, any courses open? Want to get a game in? Some after golf drinky drinkies??

My son lives in Toronto. Still a student. He is a beginner and enjoyed playing Raceview with me as a first time out while here. Is there any nice little cheap courses close to downtown Toronto. Public Transportation? or practice facilities that you would recommend? Thanks :)

A friend and I are heading down tonight right after work... :scratchch This should be awesome! Anyone ever been? Tee time at 3:42pm, but we're trying to get into line so that we can get off earlier.

Hey, I was looking for driving ranges in the gta and came across this site http://www.gta-golf.ca/driving-ranges/ that tracks them. Hopefully it saves somebody else the headache of finding a driving range nearby.

Anyone driven to or back from Florida lately? Any major road construction I should try and avoid? Thanks.

I was reading a thread from last year discussing construction on the way to Florida, but I wanted to put out a more specific question. I'll be driving to Florida for the first time (usually fly) and am wondering if anyone has a prefered route or any tips. On the way there we are looking for the...

Hi, we're driving to Myrtle Beach from Ottawa in a couple of weeks - does anyone have travel tips? Is there any reason not to follow the Google Maps directions? We're planning on two days; 10 hrs or so on day one. I think that will get us close to Richmond, Va.

Just curious if anyone has played this course before. I am heading down there this week. I was planning on playing the stadium course but they are punching the tee boxes, fairways and greens this week. They said I could play the back nine twice but for $375 I would like to play the whole course....
