Featured Golf Course Review:

Firethorne Country Club -- *YARDAGE DIFFERENCE*
Review by: Bill Johnson	I enjoyed playing this course. The black tees are a little long for me at 6400 yards and the gold tees are to short at 5500 yards. I think they should make the gold tees at least 6000 yards.The course is tight but fair. At 5500 yards leave your driver at home.

Lakewood Golf & Country Club -- *Best course in the county*
Review by: Robby Owen	I have been playing at Lakewood Country Club for about 11 years. Lakewood is the most improved course that I have seen in those 11 years. I would recommend everyone to go out and play the course. It can be difficult from the back tees. The lowest I shot from the back tees was 67. And from the white tees the best is 64 so all you golfers go out there and try to beat those scores. Lakewood has a great staff as well as the head pro. You will not find no better guy than Richard Walters.

Rancho San Joaquin Golf Course
"This course helped my game!"
With it's many doglegs and elevation changes, this course will quickly teach the beginners how to setup their approaches, while giving the lower handicap players a reasonably challenging round. 5 of the first nine pins cannot be seen from the tees. If you spray your tee shots, you will surely be struggling to make par. The par threes are deceiving with two short downhills, and two 150-ish up hills. These have been my achilles heel. There are not to many water hazzards, but they are well/poorly place depending on your tendancies. They can easily swallow your ball if your not carefull. The traps are typically limited to wrapping the greens, but watch out for the 5th hole, with its deceiving horizontal sand at 230 yards out. The grounds are well kept with mid speed greens that exactly match the practice green. Prepare for an even mix of wide and narrow fairways, and many misleading doglegs, both slight and sharp. This course has made me a better golfer, and I can't say that about many. Enjoy!

"Great grass"
The course has rebounded very well from the second wettest year on record. The Burmuda fairways are the best on the Eastern Shore!

Quarry Hills Country Club
"Natural golf"
Ellis Maples used time-tested design methods on Quarry Hills golf course. Not alot of earth was moved when placing the holes, and the result is a warm, natural feel when walking this course. In fact, it was made to walk. Despite its short length, it is a strong test of golfing skill to score well here. A true Hidden Gem in North Carolina.

"Best Public Course in the Southwest"
This golf course is quite different from any state course, or other public course I have ever played. The staff treats you like royalty right when you arrive. The cart attendants load and unload your clubs at the door. The club pros are very courteous. The course is located on the shores of Lake Texhoma, the biggest lake in Texas or Oklahoma. The layout is amazing, with the lake bordering 15 holes. It is very challenging, and very fun. This plot is some of the most beautiful, rolling terrain in all of Oklahoma. The greens are fast, with deceptive undulation, but they are still forgiving enough for the average hacker to enjoy the play along with the scenery. This was a GREAT day of golf. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys challenging golf or just a nice day in a beautiful country atmosphere.
