So you liked Furry Creek, sfourne? Never played it myself, but everyone I know says it's a gimmicky layout... I tried to get on it during a day off last summer, but they won't allow cart use by anyone under 19, and my friend and I are both younger than that (he was 17, I was 16 at that point) - however, they also REQUIRE you to take a cart, due to the elevation changes & distance between holes... so I can't get on without an adult, but if I organize a round at such a time so that an adult can come and play, that means my greens fees are doubled, because I'd have to play on a weekend.... anyway, they've lost my business for a few years at least.

I haven't had a chance to play Westwood yet, the $125+ greens fees are a slight turn-off.... but it definitely looks nice.

And, as for Predator Ridge, I believe that it is one of the best courses out there... I played it a few years ago, the course was in amazing condition, and the holes are all strong. Which nines did you get to play there? I've yet to play the Peregrine, when I was there I played the Osprey and the Red Tail.
