Air Force Academy Silver course has some of the hardest greens to read of any course I've played. Everything is effected by the mountain. Beautiful setting

My observation is that in general the Air Force and Army courses are pretty good, while the Navy courses tend to be flat and not too interesting. There may be exceptions of course. I have only played a few. Three of my favorites are no longer military but are open to the public. They are the Bayonet and Black Horse courses at Fort Ord in California and the Presidio in San Francisco. All three are still great courses and extremely challenging. Some of my remaining favorites include Vandenberg AFB (Marshalia Ranch) and Edwards AFB (Muroc Lake) in California. I also like Hickam AFB (Mamala Bay) in Hawaii. The Navy Marine course is also OK. Leilelia (sp?) at Schofield Barracks is OK if you don't mind an inland course in Hawaii. I was not that impressed with Kaneohe, but maybe I'll give it another try. Nellis AFB in Las Vegas is also one of my favorite stops. The Air Force Academy courses are great but very crowded and hard to get on. In general all military courses are pretty good values if you have access (and some are open to the public). They usually have some kind of snack bar or restaurant with decent food at reasonable prices, and they often have pretty good practice facilities.

Thought it'll only be open for a couple more years, one of the very best courses in the military is Sungnam Golf Course, Seongnam South Korea which is apart of the Yongsan/Seoul Army base. In 2017 or 2018 a brand new world class facility will open in Pyeongtaek (Camp Humphreys) it is a Robert Trent Jones designed layout with water on nearky every hole. Beautiful design.

The Navy has some great courses.
1-Pensacola 27 Holes and 18 Hole Par 3
2-Jacksonville 27 Holes
3-Se wells Point in Norfolk VA
4-Sea Air in San Diego
5-Mayport Fl

Bonus- 36 City course in Bremerton WA

I am surprised at the absence of any courses in the San Antonio area - lots of bases, lots of military personnel and lots of golf courses, and a huge military retirement community.
The two courses at Ft. Sam Houston, for example.
The Salado Del Rio is said to be the only military course to have hosted a PGA event. Open to the public, and only $2 variation in fees weekday to weekend at $%39 - $41!

In 20 years in the Marine Corps, I had 11 duty stations. Played golf at Quantico, Cherry Point, Camp Lejeune, Albany, Ga. (9 holes), Parris Island, Camp Pendleton (Club Champion in 81), Hawaii - All courses were amazing, but like Al Kaneohe and Navy Marine could be debated for a long time, Okinawa, Awase Meadows (Club Champion in 88) and Al was there at the same time, Kadena AFB. I have been fortunate to play at many more Military courses and believe me we are blessed.

Two tours on Hawaii, Kaneohe 1969-1972, Pearl Harbor 1977-1980. Kaneohe vs Navy-Marine would cause a debate that would last deep into a keg of beer. The photo (Memory not to sharp 35 years ago) I believe is No. 14. Was there when we change 13 from a par 5 to a par 4. One last thing, if you have played Silver Wings at Fort Rucker, Al. in the past, you should check it out now. It is in great shape.

My home course is Camp Pendleton, but I also love to visit and take visitors to Sea 'N Air on Coronado Island. It has spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and Hotel Del Coronado. The staff is terrific, the layout is challenging but beatable, you get an air show while you play, and the club house is first rate.

Any visit to San Diego should include these two courses and Admiral Baker North if you've got an extra day.

I can say I've played probably the worst golf courses the Navy had to offer. Subic Bay, Philippines after the volcano exploded, leaving everything covered in ash and Guantanamo Bay, where there was minimal water to keep the greens and tee boxes, green. Both courses you carried a piece of AstroTurf to play off of.

Have played both courses at Camp Lejeune. Gold is best. Have always gone with son in law who is active duty so don't know how it is to get on as civilian. Flat courses with little change in elevation.
