Hopefully they redesign that dump before it opens.

Not the main factor at all. Lots of mistakes were made
Agree the location is less than ideal. I think there were a couple of external factors that caused it not to work... first being John Brady’s untimely death. He would have developed the neighborhood and the retail alot faster. Like most golf developments that would have provided some more revenue to support the course. I have to believe he would have marketed it better as well. No one that’s tried to operate it since has any great passion for the game. To my knowledge, none of the Chouest baws even play. Then of course the oilfield tanking was another dagger to the heart.
I’m not being sensitive, but El’s comments in this thread have included “meh” and it’s “bland”. Neither of those are objectively true. Like I said, name a better public course in South Louisiana...

Like what? How can it sustain its “great shape” at a price point that would bring in enough play from people willing to drive over an hour or more? And how can it be private with fewer than 50 members because no one wants to live there? You don’t have enough hardcore or even weekend golfers trying to get there hands on a place to live in Raceland. I get that there was more to it in terms of just bad management and decisions. Like that hideous cobblestone cart path they paid for rather than a real clubhouse which they ended up selling anyway.
