The Golf Thread

There needs to be a team aspect to it.

Y'all think All the Olympic drop outs are kicking them self? This looks like an awesome tournament and I think Zika fears are not as they seem. I guess we'll know if any golfers have the virus in the next couple weeks. I feel winning a medal compares to a major and winning gold exceeds it.

The Zika thing was just a convenient excuse.

Well, it was a great event with a fantastic finish.

No doubt. But I can't really blame them for not wanting to go down there.

Until the diving pool turned green. That opened everything back up. Had some random archer got robbed it would've been quiet, but instead they robbed Ryan Lochte. Those two incidents gave Zika deserters their validation

Bubba loved it so it probably sucked.

That's some pretty solid reasoning.

I play down there a lot. My favorites...

Heron Pointe in Sea Pines - Pete Dye design with evil green complexes (I think the Ocean Course is still being rebuilt)

Jones or Fazio Courses in Palmetto Dunes - resort style courses, but always in good shape.

Crescent Point in Bluffton - Palmet design

Golden Bear - classic Nicklaus design

Hilton Head National in Bluffton
Old South in Bluffton

Nor is it hard to ask in a thread about golf, for personal recommendations, as I have with my trips to Kiawa, Destin and Myrtle Beach in the past.

Staying in Palmetto Dunes. Would you play Jones or Fazio?

Had I just Googled, I'd probably have never even considered Crescent Point, but b/c I asked here I was able to snag an AM round for two on a Palmer course for 40 bucks. Total.

So yeah, thanks for the advice. It was incredibly helpful too.

Thanks, we may have to check that out.

Another spot that may not be easily found by simply Googling.
