Hi, Just trying to get an idea as to where one could golf early in the spring (March-April), within a days driving (8 hours or so max). I am thinking of a group trip with some junior golfers, early in the spring, for an extended weekend or two (4 days each). If anyone has any...

I know there are some transplanted Maritimers here on the board so I thought I would throw this up here. I am getting married in July and my and fiance have decided that we would like to go spend some time on the East coast for out honeymoon. She said that we can even play some golf (ask me if I...

I was looking at the new email concerning Golf in Myrtle Beach and the list of courses involved. I have played just about every course listed with the exception of a few . The packages look pretty good but if I was booking one of the deals IT WOULD NOT be the Barefoot courses, They are badly...

Hey guys - heading to Edmonton on Business in a couple of weeks and would like to get a round in midweek. Recommendations? (I'm a 13 index)

El Cid has 39 hole course. Marina , Moro ans Castilla Courses. All courses run right beside the ocean. Best time to visit Mexico and play this beautiful golf course is January to March. The weather is not to hot to enjoy the round. My husband & I went 10 months ago to Mexico and enjoy every hole....

I'm going to be backpacking Europe this fall and will be spending some time in England and Scotland. I would love to get out for a round at an old style links course, but do not have the money to play somewhere like St. Andrews, especially as I will also need to rent clubs. Does anybody have any...

Pictures are uploaded and album is created, so here goes. I played two rounds at Erin Hills this past Sunday and Monday. The weather could not have been better. Mid 80's, not humid, just a bit of a breeze. Perfect. The caddies were also appreciative. Executive summary: Erin Hills is a...

I would think that every course in the London area would be open by now. With the weekend tempatures to climb into the low 20's it looks like I timed this just about right :lmfao

Has anyone created an excel file that will set up the pairings for a golf trip? If so please PM me if you are willing to share.

played Falcon yesterday and as usual was impressed with the course conditions and love the layout. Greens were very good shape but on the slow side. I am sure once it warms up and they get rolled they will be top shape. A couple of sketchy fairways ( good chunk of 16 is tarped ) , like the fact...

I would have to say most courses in the London area are WET & WETTER :irked: All it seems to do down here is rain. It is like we moved to Vancouver. :thumbsdow

Hi guys---looking for a new destination for our fall get-a-way..tired of the laurentians and inflated prices. We did go to Malone for their special and enjoyed the 2 days...but would pay the extra for the Holiday Inn accomodation. Has anyone played Tupper Lake Golf Course or the Sananac Inn...

I'll be playing Forest City National on Monday morning so I will let you know what kind of condition it is in. I have heard from a friend if you ain't hitting it straight it will beat you up! Rough is up and thick and nasty. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm 3 wood off the tee all day:-) London and surrounding...

Heading out there on Wed, and playing 2 rounds.. 1st from the whites (with collegues) then from the tips. Any feedback?

OK, so we dropped by to see if Elvis wanted to play, :confused could not wake him so we headed out for Tombstone--The OK Corral is at the end of the street on the right---the only problem was--the gun fight was on the next street over--not in the corral.:book Anyway into the car and on to the...

I will be playing at Firerock Golf Club, located just outside London. Playing it for the first time this coming Monday so I will let you guys know what it is like. I have heard from some guys I play golf with that this is an awesome course. http://www.firerockgolf.com/

Anyone that hasn't been to Firerock yet this year is seriously missing out. The course is in immaculate condition. Aside from a couple non-descript holes on the front side, this course is a gem. It blows Forest City National out of the water in the high end public course category here in London....

Heading to Arizona at the end of October and have never travelled to golf before so it's new to me. I'm assuming a hard case is the safest way to get your clubs there? Do people recommend just checking your sticks on the flight or shipping them to the resort via Fedex? Any tips would be...

I am traveling to Fort Lauderdale in March and plan to play a few rounds. Has anyone played some of the courses in the area?

Any suggestions??? I am staying in Englewood from the 4th to the 12th of March.

So, I'm headed to Fort Myers with my wife, 16 month old, the in-laws, and sister/brother in law for March break this year. Plan on taking the sticks and if lucky will get out golfing 3-5 times (not really a beach guy). Anybody have any good suggestions for courses, and ideally a cost...

Any suggestions ???

Anyone in the London and surrounding area, thought I would pass on the free golf coupon for Hunters' Point in Welland. Go to their site, fill in a survey and get a free certificate to play free during the first three weeks of April...Nice course and it's free....:-)

Now that I've got your attention, I'm serious. We bid & won for this trip back in August at a charity event but a constant series of conflicts has resulted in us NOT being able to use it. My wife is going to be in Paris for ten day conference in April so that looks like our Spring trip. ...

Anybody book with " I Travel 2000 Direct" ? The latest word according to the insurance company---Ontario and Quebec get their vacations for free. :) Official announcement Wednesday am.
