This will be my 3rd season playing but I probably play 50 rounds a year now. Starting to put together a pretty solid list.

Played Torrey Pines last year
Just played Omni Grove in Asheville
Heading to Capital Hill on the RJT end of the month
Kelly Plantation in Destin
Playing Old Toccoa, Sweetens and Macklemore in June

Friend is a member out at Moonlight Basin in Big Sky, looking to play that in August this year as well.

Pinehurst will be a goal next year along with some better courses in Florida.

Destination trips are the best. You will really enjoy Capital Hill.

My Torrey trip got cancelled last year b/c of COVID.

I'd rate the big trips i've been on as:

1-Pinehurst - nothing like it
2-Kohler - 4 insane courses topped by Whistling Straights
3-Hilton Head - Harbour Town sooo good
4-Norther Michigan - sneaky good golf, esp Arcadia Bluffs
5-St Aug - 2 good courses at golf hall of fame and Sawgrass is close


Planning either Pebble or Bandon for this year.

I e been to Scotland/Ireland 2 times, 2 weeks each time. Recommend the same, if you want to play all the top courses. Otherwise, you’ll be planning another trip. In North America, highly recommend Pinehurst, Bandon (golfers only), Wisconsin, BC (Lake Okanagan), Banff area, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Norther Michigan has LOTS of golf courses and great packages (some are around $100 per night...room and one round). Myrtle Beach for cheap packages. Besides going back to Scotland, I’d want to go to Bandon once a year. It is pure golf, walking, caddies, play the ball in the air, or run it on the ground. You could hit a PW or driver from 170 yards, depending on the wind. It’s more scenic that Pebble Beach, and has better layouts. The only course around Pebble that matches it, is Cypress Point.
