    Just Booked cheap flights to Miami in Early April.

    Golf suggestions for the area? We'll be staying in the Miami Beach area.

    I'm looking at Myrtle flights in early May and the prices are crazy expensive this year!
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    $285 u.s taxes incl, Plattsburg n.y nonstop to Lakeland fla. ( 40 min. from Orlando.)

    Lots of good golf in the Lakeland area.

    is that for me or the Miami guy? we're booked in MB already and go there. you can fly out of Plattsburgh but only 2 days a week and its the wrong 2 days.

    Doral - Best in the area, especially if you want to check in and get some good lessons - crazy good instruction there. Prices are also a little crazy though - I think the Blue Monster runs ~$400 in the winter, White & Red course is nice though and usually around half or less.

    Otherwise Turnberry is really nice, Biltmore - older classic Ross course and Don Shula's if you like the extra golf stuff like a great restaurant & tripping over ex pro athletes.

    Still looking for more ideas for Miami Beach area.

    We ended up playing Miami Springs, Miami Shores and Jacaranda West. All three are great tracks.
    Miami Springs is quite historic, having held the Miami Open from 1925 to 1955 and names like Gene Sarazin, Sam Snead, and Byron Nelson having won there. Almost drove a green there, ended up in a side bunker on a 320 yd par 4. And with the state of my early game took 5 more shots to get in. (The sand is thin with packed mud under and so is the other opposite!)

    Jacaranda is very nice as well but a little drive from the beach.$24 in Gas with a Full size Ford Quad for the 6 days!
