Best place to play golf around gulf shores

Craft Farms

Playing Peninsula tomorrow

Kiva Dunes

Twilight rate at gulf shores golf club FTW!

Peninsula is excellent ,27 holes to choose from. Craft farms is very nice I prefer Cotton Creek 18 over Plantation18 but both are great. Kiva Dunes is an excellent course but is too tough off the tee for me to enjoy it. If you're not a single digit handicapper stay away. Good luck

I once played in a scramble tournament there. We got to the 330 yd. par 4, 12th Hole. It was a 90 degree dogleg right where the hole was not visible. I was hitting last and one my playing partners hit a good drive down the middle leaving us with about a 150 yard shot in. So, I decided to go for it and play a huge slice. I had never played the course so it was all blind. My playing partner had played the course before and thought I didn't have a chance. Even after I hit it, he swore it was in the woods and didn't even come close to reaching the green.

When we made the turn, the foursome in front of us were just staring at us. My partner was looking in the woods for my ball, when one of the guys on the green asked if anyone was playing a Titleist. I said, "Yeah, I am." They told us that the ball hit right over the sandtrap protecting the green and hopped up and missed going in the cup by about an inch. They were all wondering where the ball had come from. They thought it might have been an errant shot from another hole.

I made the three footer coming back for Eagle. It would have been sweet to get my only hole-in-one at a Par 4.

Craft Farms is great and if you have a student ID then they give you half off
