I sadly lost my list of courses when I switched jobs, and no longer keep a running list. I need to try to recreate it. My list of new courses was pretty weak this year unfortunately.

Highlights include.
Streamsong red
Babe Zaharias Tampa
Cheval Tampa
Tanglewood Milton (Bubba Watson and Boo Weekleys home course growing up)
Club Renaissance - Sun City Center.

Like I said, weak sauce, I'm probably forgetting some new ones I played but that is what I have off the top of my head.

I've played the majority of your list, play at Bloomingdale alot, was a member at Buckhorn the past few years but dropped it this year, I just haven't been playing enough. I don't practice, probably one or the reasons I suck so much. But I live a few minutes from ace so we could definitely hit some balls sometime.
 
I'm envious of these lists. I haven't played much or many places this year. Looking forward to a better 2015.

After I get back home, will add the few places I did enjoy this year.

Nice list. Lots of NJ good ones.


How is this course? I pass it on the parkway all the time and always wondered if it was any good.
 
Love some of the courses posted!

I'm a course nut and played about 80 rounds of golf at ~65 courses. I'll spare myself the typing (and you the reading lol) and just hit a couple of my favorites....Bethpage Black, Dormie Club, Fossil Trace, and Pete Dye River Course (and I don't even like Dye designs!)
 
I bet some of these lists for 2015 will be filled with

La Costa
Cog Hill
Olde Stonewall
True Blue
Caledonia

And a whole bunch of others we cannot post about yet...#GetExcited
 
Cog Hill please.

Pretty please.

They did some work to it this year to get it ready for the NJ Open in 2016. It has a couple holes with severe elevation changes, but I like it. It's one of the two Union County courses so I get a discount. The most remarkable change is tearing down the two-room shack and making the enormous clubhouse that you can't miss seeing from the parkway.

Definitely! Sounds like you've been too busy, Buckhorn is in great shape ever since they revamped the place. Give me a shout.

Seems like a good time! Been so busy I wouldn't have been able to make it anyways. Does THP tour van have a schedule on when and where they go? I practice/play over in Brandon and would love to see you guys come out.

Most of the time the Tour Van is used for our 12-15 major events around the country. Things like the Gauntlet, #THPLegacy and the THP Invitational Series. But since we are local to the area, there are quite a few get togethers with THPers in and around the Tampa Bay area.

Tadashi70 (THP Member) organized this one in Tampa and we have 15 or so THPers coming out to play including a LPGA player.
 
'14 was a slow year for me on the course. I played true blue, caledinia, championsgate, waldorf, isle worth CC, nona CC, Columbus CC, grand cypress, reunuin, Orlando cc, river strand, eagles club, eagle creek, the Ritz, maderas, Hilton head, tpc Las vegas, stallion mountaun, Bali Hai, wynn, chateau elan, whiskey creek.
