Traveling there last week of June for vacation. Buddy and I will play 2 rounds over a weeks time. Both double digit handicappers. Recommendations on which 2 places to play? Money not really a factor just want best experience possible. Thanks in advance.

The same exact thread that you posted in an hour ago wasn't good enough?

Not trying to be an arse but figured I’d get more responses by posing it as a question in the subject of a new thread. Thanks for being a prick though.

Haven't played in Destin, but I've heard of these two:

-Kelly Plantation is nice.
-Sandestin is suppose to be rated well and they have 4 different courses.

Good luck, hit 'em well, and have an awesome trip!

Don't worry about Mingo, his boyfriend's boyfriend never lets him travel.

Gay jokes are very funny. I just got got so bad I'm probably about to delete my account.

I don't know how I'll ever come back from that.

Don't delete your account baw.
I don't think you're gay.
We want you here, just not as an a-hole to OP.

Regatta Bay is always the choice for me in that area of Florida. Don’t be foolish - do regatta.

Just played there. Not worth the $. The raven was in far better shape.

Played there years ago and Kelley Plantation. WD was as good or maybe better and cheaper.

Raven, Baytowne and The Links are all great. The Links could be the best course in Sandestin (entire Destin area) if they would just do a minimal amount of improvements! Many tee boxes are crap! Some tee boxes don’t have a single level spot (#12 - or three by the Sandestin entrance). Bay views on the Links are amazing!

Kelly Plantation and Regatta Bay are both decent tracks.

One summer we rented a condo that had free golf on the Links, so I played it about ten times. I think it's a good, challenging layout and probably has the most holes on the bay. You're right that it could be a lot better if they maintained it better. Lotta water on that one!

Indian Bayou is very underrated and a little easier on the pocket book. I always enjoy it.
