Looking at making the trek down there for Veterans Day. What kind of shape is it in? Which course should we play?

hosted around 6-8 tournaments recently, so they've kept it up nicely. greens were rolling nice smooth and quick when i played Friday and Saturday.

my opinion, magnolia is the more "forgiving" of the 2 courses.......little wider\more forgiving fairways.

oak, while the front 9 is mostly meh..there are 2 holes (#4 going to the tchefucnte and #5 a Par3 over a cut of the river) that are nice........the back 9, starting at 12, is probably my favorite 9 on both courses.

Really depends on what you want. Mag more open and more fun in my opinion. Oak better looking holes. But somewhat tighter course.

Both courses were in good shape when I played recently. They’ve done a really good job with the course in the last few years.

I almost always play the Mag when given the choice.

Can guests play there or do you have to be with a member?

A member would have to either play with you or vouch for you I believe.

No clue. My Dad has been a member my whole life. I’ve never paid to play out there

I’m just saying, if there was a TD Beau Chene golf outing around Christmas, this paying guest would be down

Haha I’m not even supposed to be playing out there. I’m too old. But I know everyone there and they don’t care.

It’s really nothing special. the big pro of Beau Chene is having 2 courses. But the courses themselves are fine

Played the magnolia last Friday as a reciprocal as our course undergoes a renovation. Enjoyed it but was cold as hell and we were basically the only people on the course.

That was the most saturated I have ever seen a course. Is that normally the case out there? One course drain better than the other?

The drainage is poor on both courses so the winter time without sunlight makes it very tough to play
