The Wetlands - Lafayette

Posted by tredd2885 on 2/27/23 at 5:04 pm

Our group played The Wetlands yesterday. We were pleasantly surprised. The greens were maybe the best I've ever seen them at that course. Fairways still need to green up a bit, but they were in good condition. Just thought I'd report back to the board as we all start getting back to playing for the ...

Big Cedar Lodge looks amazing. I would have loved to stay on the grounds and played at least one of their courses. Originally we planned our trip elsewhere and then in the last 2 weeks changed it to Branson so they were all booked up for golf and lodging. It's a bucket list trip for me though no...

The family is heading up to Branson for Memorial Day. Last minute kind of trip. We looked at Big Cedar Lodge, but all of there courses are booked up. Has anyone played any other courses in the area that would be worth looking into?...

Anyone play Tamahka Trails lately? Doing a weekend getaway with some buddies and debating between Tamahka Trails and Koasati Pines. Tamahka offers a VIP package if you have 16 or more. Anyone ever did this? Appreciate any feedback on both courses....

Here’s a pic of the hole. It was the same pin placement as the pic. We were playing the silvers so It was about 130 yards and I hit an 8 iron. I hit it slightly left of the hole, around that hill. I new it had the right distance and that I was close but definitely didn’t think it was in the cup. The...

:lol: Thanks fellas. When I saw it, I probably sounded like Coach O after a W at Bama. Thoroughly enjoyed crushing that cold beer when we got back to the cart! :cheers: I wasn't specific enough. We were originally set to play Wednesday and moved it back to Friday. Glad we did because it was a he...

Raven - Sandestin

Posted by tredd2885 on 6/12/20 at 11:25 am

Last week before the storm I played Raven with a buddy. For this trip I had actually booked a tee time at Baytowne and then cancelled it because we ended up not leaving Lafayette until about 9:00 PM, getting us to Destin around 2:00 and our tee time was at 7:30 that morning. So I kept checking G...

So we played The Links on Sunday. It was in decent shape. There were still some visible holes from aeration but it didn't have much effect on any of our games. Plenty of water on just about every hole, so we lost a fair share of balls. We did enjoy the holes along the bay. Beautiful scenery. Play...

The guys I'm going with wanted to stick with The Links, just for cost. I'll report back. I'm going back in a few weeks with a different group. I'll try to get them on Regatta Bay, Raven or Windswept Dunes....

Posted by tredd2885 on 5/20/20 at 1:23 pm

Considered Raven. Have some guys in our group that only play a couple times per year and didn't want to spend over $100 on a round. Indian Bayou is great. Always have a good time playing there and it's about a mile from the condo, so that's where we usually play. Looks like The Links is usual...
