hey i play in a town near Mt.Vernon. im just wandering if there are anybody else that plays in IL and where is your home course?

i'm from a little south of Decatur, my home course is Red Tail Run

Home Course: Green Hills - Mt. Vernon

really? thats not to far from mine. i play at Crooked Creek.

ive been to decatur. i love it up there.

Thats cool. We should hit the links sometime soon.

it's not too bad. the golf is pretty cheap for the quality of courses.

yea i havent played up there. i dont travel that much. haha. but i like to go up there and to effingham and springfield. i love the big cities.

yea im always up for competition!

I just moved to Peoria IL, I don't know many of the courses so I just bought a park pass. It gives me 5 courses for the season. I usually stick to Kellog GC so far though.

There is one I played up there for a tournament. It was called Elks Country Club. It was a veryyyyyyyyy nice course. Fairways you could putt on.

i played up at madison golf course in peoria...really nice course....alot of trees if you miss the fairway...its a really short course...a couple par 4's around 250 yards

I haven't played Madison yet but it is on my pass. It's a really short course though. They usually hold Jr tournies on it. I love Kellog and I liked Donovan when I played it but the weather was bad so I'll have to try it when it's good. I'm going to try out Newman this weekend for the first time. I heard it's challenging.

I think I've heard of the Elks before but I'm trying to finish up my degree so I'm trying to keep my golf reasonable right now. In a couple years I'll be in the position to splurge a little more. For now my parks pass has been great. It has already paid for itself and it's not even halfway through the season.

PS. I enjoy IL for now but look forward to moving somewhere I can golf year around.

Try to play Elks before you leave. It's well worth the money.

I played Newman this weekend. It was a nice course. Narrow and if you went into trouble it wan't very forgiving. The greens were well kept though. I'm going to try to get a round in at the Elks before I leave.
