Beachwood Golf Course -- *Great course*
Review by: Scott M. Barlag	This was my home course for the high school golf team. You will be hard pressed to find a finer, more mature public course. Do yourself a favor and go there.

Briar Leaf Golf Club -- *This course gets a bogey*
Review by: Wlv4ine	The new hole (Island Green) is the best hole on the course.. The back nine was sub par at best. The grounds keepers must of stopped at #9. Too many areas with large clumps of grass. Design for the entire course is a very nice one and capable of a 3 1/2 to 4 star rating if the fairways and greens were better taken care of............

Springville Country Club
"Best Course in WNY"
Not an overly long course, it rewards accuracy off the tee and penalizes errant strokes. The greens are fast and true, and generally break less than one would imagine. The front nine is deceptive, punishing anyone who strays off the tree-lined fairways. The back nine can be attacked, but the sightlines off the tees can intimidate the first time player. Use long irons from the tee to keep the ball in play(only if they are are a strength in your game), and you will be surprised with the result. Putting is the primary key to scoring on this picturesque layout.

"Good secret"
Beautiful! Excellent greens, fairways, service. A little tough, but that's part of the appeal.

Delray Dunes Golf & Country Club
"A South Florida gem"
This a great private golf course, with new TifSport fairways, TifEagle greens and new bunkering, all put in during the summer of 2002. Pete Dye's course is better than ever. The new gold (back) tees now play 6,616 yards with a 72.0/131 course and slope rating. This par 71 course is made up of narrow fairways, many tree-lined. Four par 4s exceed 400 yards with number 6 playing 442 yards and number 13 reaching 437 yards; tough holes by every standard. If you can find a member or locate a friend of a member, by all means make it a point to play this great South Florida golf course.

Spring Valley Country Club
"Challenging course"
Spring Valley is an older club that recently upgraded the course layout. They changed 3 or 4 holes in the last few years. The course has no housing development on it and includes several holes that require specific tee shot placement. A good deal of wooded area surrounds the course and water does come into play on several holes. The clubhouse is typical country club and I suggest the prime rib. Outstanding.
