That's a bad list. I also don't think that is TPC Louisiana pictured.

Just drunk all around.

I'm good with the first two. Bluffs obviously isn't a top 5 anymore. I've played Kosati Pines and it was nice, but top 5 in the state, if true, is an indictment on Louisiana golf. TPC I guess is top 5, I'm just not a fan.

The Bluffs knows how the system works. It's a ballot filled out and you have to have at least 30 to qualify.
quote:

America’s 100 Greatest & America’s Second 100 Greatest requires a minimum of 75 evaluations accumulated within 10 years, 100 Greatest Public 35 evaluations and Best in State 30 ballots.
The 7 criteria are also weighted evenly:

Shot Options
Challenge
Layout Variety
Distinctiveness
Aesthetics
Conditioning
Character

Most of these are redundant and only one has to do with actual condition. Shot Options, Layout Variety, and Character are all basically the same thing and the Bluffs is actually going to score well in Louisiana because of the elevation compared to everywhere else.

The most recent golf magazine I received didn’t have any courses in La ranked.
Maybe this is an additional ranking by state.
Thanks for sharing
