Best course you ever played

What is the best course you have ever played. Not so much cost or prestige, but tee to green the best!!

I would have to say playing TPC Sawgrass from the back tees was very exciting. Just getting to see shots that actual Pros had played.

Dalmuir Municipal Course, Just outside Glasgow.

It's a wonderfully maintained course, there's no easy hole and there are some really fantastic holes.

The 12th is a 97yd Par 3, but it's a blind tee shot as you are playing over 100 foot straight down and a small burn at the front of the green and bunkers at the back. It's a matter of hitting the ball and going to the edge of the hill and praying it hits the green.

Reunion Resort near Orlando. I played there last year, and the conditioning and greens were awesomely perfect.

2nd place Quinta da Marinha in Estoril, Portugal. Mostly because of the exotic location and scenery - the conditioning wasn't the best, but it was a beautiful locale.

Hi all,

Best course I've played would have to be the Christchurch Golf Club, testing course kept in excellent condition.

Willow Valley Golf & Country Club. Probably somewhere nobody here's ever heard of, but it's schweet and the greens are ridiculous.

Played the Plantation Course last year at Kapalua. Beautiful Ocean views and a fun course.

Valhalla in Louisville, Ky. What an amazing course. At least the front nine was.
Played it on two hours sleep and kept it together for nine holes. We won't talk about the back nine

I haven't played too many courses, I've walked around some good ones though!.....
The best course I've played would have to be my home club, Greenacres!

I think the Universityof Michigan golf course is the best one. I've played a few private courses, some Myrtle Beach courses, but the U of M course just impressed me - also being a public course helps.

I got to play Shinnecock, and it's heaven on Earth! It's golf in it's purest form. No tricks (since the course was green and not burned out). Every shot was fair. If you hit it well, you were rewarded, if you hit it poorly, you paid the price. So much fun, and such a beautiful, natural looking course.

Hershey Country Club East course. Long course with small greens that are heavily bunkered. If you aren't hitting it well it will eat you for lunch.
