Raven at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort
Played On 02/26/2020Not bad considering winter conditions
All around nice course. Very few areas in need of repair. Greens ran true. Woods and water make play challenging.

Played On 02/16/2019All around good golf
Very nice layout. The greens were in good condition and ran true. Work still remains on the sea wall after the storm in a few locations but it doesn't affect play.
Emerald Bay Golf Club
Played On 02/15/2018Very nice all the way around.
Start the day off with an efficient check in and range session. Starter actually came back to the practice range and coordinated our tee off to keep everyone on the same page. Course in good condition considering late winter dormant grasses. Green were nice but just a little slow. Layout was nice with landing zones big enough to keep the scuba divers away for a few weeks.

Played On 01/26/2018A nice challenge
A interesting layout through and around waterways and homes. Its your typical resort layout. A few bayside holes. Course in decent shape considering the burned out winter look. A slow group had the course backed up. Maybe not normal so, I'll give them a pass.
Seascape Golf Beach and Tennis
Played On 01/23/2018It was nice
Nothing special, but not terrible. A little rough around the cart paths at times. From a value perspective, I think the afternoon discount rate is the right price point.
Highlands Reserve Golf Club
Played On 02/17/2017Discovered too late to go again.
I played here during the last week of my vacation. I would definitely go again but couldn't do it on this trip. It's not maintained like Augusta (according to what I have read), but it only has a few rough spots. The greens run true. Traps and waste areas are maintained. Fairways are generous and are better than most tight lie Bermuda grass ones. The layout is ok. No water but enough hazardso to keep it interesting.
Pittsburgh National Golf Club
Played On 05/09/2014Fast and true greens
The course was in great condition. The greens were fast but they rolled true. There are a few wet spots but we have had a wet spring. Improvements are being made. Work was taking place on a tee and some traps. The work did not affect play. The basic course layout and hole design is pretty good. I will play here again. On the downside, there are few bare spots near the cart path on and off ramps or small ditches due to erosion. Fix this and we are talking 5 stars!
Quicksilver Golf Club
Played On 7/29/2013One of the top ranked in western PA in my book.
Five tees to choose from. I enjoyed the relative high course rating/slope. Each hole was unique. Very fair. Hard to lose a ball. Can't wait to play again.
Butler National Golf Club
Played On 7/6/2013Challenging holes. Nice fairways and greens.
This course is a little challenging. You will need all of your clubs. Hazards are strategically placed. The Blue Tees deserve their 70.8/135 rating. The greens and fairways are well maintained. A few traps had wet bottoms but we did have hard rains during the previous week. The cart paths are a little rough here and there. The hole to hole signage isn't the best. Don't let these little bumps in the road stop you from enjoying the game of golf at St Judes. I will definitely play there again.
Birdsfoot Golf Club
Played On 5/9/2013Nice layout over hilly terrain.
A diverse set of holes over hilly terrain. You will need all of your clubs. Fives sets of tees so you can pick your length. The greens are fair with some multilevel challenges. The fairways are in good shape and have strategically placed hazards. The facility is well maintained except for the traps. Not sure why some of the traps tend to have small pieces of stone in them or bare spots. The sand is very coarse and heavy. Bottom line, stay out of the traps!
