    Score top 100 courses in Canada - Local view

    Looking at the Score top 100 courses in Canada list for 2020 from a local Ottawa view

    42 Hunt
    68 Lemaitre
    74 Royal Ottawa
    85 Eagle Creek
    90 Camelot

    In my opinion Camelot should be much higher +5 or more, Royal and Lemaitre a bit lower and Eagle a bit higher?

    In all honesty it’s a conversation starter. The list actually goes to 140 this year. The marshes is ranked inside the top 140 in Canada, while Rivermead is not. That’s a joke. I played Camelot last year and there is no way it was better or in more pristine condition. Eagle Creek is dramatically overrated. Best value has to be Black Bear. Played 36 holes with carts for $140. That’s less then an 18 hole green fee with no cart at Hunt Club.

    I was a member at Rivermead for 18 years. Best conditions of all those courses except maybe the Hunt. Camelot is Mickey Mouse. Royal is boring. I am currently at Le Sorcier. Conditions not as good as Rivermead. Course is a lot more fun to play IMHO. The staff is 10 times friendlier than Rivermead. Cost is 1/3.

    In the magazine version of the list they explain that courses need to be ranked by at least 10 panellists over the previous 6 years. There are 100 people in the panel. So likely not enough of panellists have played Rivermead?

    For the score they use

    5% to par3s
    5% to par 4s
    5% to par 5s
    5% to conditioning
    15% to beauty
    15% to challenge
    15% to design
    15% to strategy
    20% to fun factor
