What’s the general cost for a decent course in the states I’m allergic to having the piss taken out of me where golf courses are concerned.

That Golf Now link I posted should give you a good idea.

Yes, I we have had hotel and courses booked. This will be the 3rd year since we originally booked to go. 24 of us book 6 rounds and hotel, total cost each £1500+ for golfers I think £1100+ for none golfers, it might have changed but I don`t now yet.

We’re off to Orlando soon and staying on International Drive South. I’ve never played golf there on all our trips but this time my two brother in-laws will be with us and we fancy playing 3 maybe 4 rounds during our time there.

If anybody has any tips on the best courses to play i’d be grateful. I’m a relatively high handicapper still so I’m not worried about super expensive courses as they’d be wasted on me...

Played at International Drive around 5am way back, not fully light when we tee’d off. Just me and my mate whilst families were still asleep, first hole, both of us hit good second shots to the first hole in partial darkness. Got to near the green and there’s a big pond in front, my mate is having a look for his ball in the water, I shouted over “have you seen that sign?” It read “Beware of Gators in water”. Decent course but it was about €70 per round from memory and it was mid 90’s so about equivalent £45 which was expensive.

Yes all inclusive. We 1st booked this for 10th June 2020. I might be able to find the courses we booked if I look through our Belek group messages.

Nobilis,
Nick Faldo,

Not sure if we are playing just those 5 and an extra for those that want to have another game.

I can believe it. I`ve tried walking into a hotel in Spain and asking for a double room. I nearly fell over when they told me how much the day rate was.

I’ve mentioned previously I’m getting back into golf after 14 yrs and been watching loads of golf channels on YouTube. I really recommend Danny Maude , very clear and simple instructions. I also follow Chris Dennis - putting & short game coach . Golf Mates is good for a laugh . Anyone else watch YouTube golf channels?

I watch a lot, don’t seek any out in particular but seem to have settled recently on Ali Taylor who I get a lot from and Alex Elliott who is OK but I’ll give time to as he is obviously a City fan, he keeps mentioning Aguero and gently dissing Liverpool. He’s filmed a few of his videos at the Beeches in Knutsford where I have my lessons
