Carter Plantation is the clear #1 in that list.

I only play 2 of those with any regularity. Carter and Oak Knoll.

Carter is a great track. Always in top notch condition. They flooded bad in August but I've heard it has recovered well. Oak Knoll is not on the same level, but it has improved a lot over the last year. They kicked out the "yacht club" which was running the place into the ground and is now being run by people who care about the place. Good value course.

I've enjoyed Beau Chene and Percy Quinn but it's been over 5 years since I've played either one.

I love Carter but I would put Carter behind Money Hill. Also Beau Chene was in as good a condition as its ever been last fall.

Abita is not worth playing and last summer when I played Oak Knoll it was awful.

Franklinton used to be a solid course.

Post Katrina and in the past few years they are desperate for members that give a shite and the course will probably never be what it was.

The yacht club is 100% still at Oak Knoll.
