5 Best Courses

[Tenputt]

List the 5 best courses you have ever played (you don’t have to rank them in order of preference). Mine would be:

1. Haig Point (the host for the 2019 Morgan Cup) (the exclusivity, the layout, the memory).
2. The Country Club (in Salt Lake City) (everything is done upscale).
3. The Ocean Course at Hokuala in Kauai (that view).
4. Torrey Pines, South (again, that view).
5. San Diego Country Club (those greens).

5 "best" is a tough one. I look at playability from a personal perspective over things that others would lose their mind over. I guess it needs to be a combination of experience, prestige, and other. But for me, I look at my personal experience above all.

- The success my team had on the Clive at the Hideaway ranks way up there. Finishing under par. Beating the unbeatable Harry.
- Haig Point was brilliant, from a course design to experience perspective (wind not considered), and location.
- Going low early at Valhalla, the location, the course layout, the experience.
- Boulder Creek on history alone. Pre-wedding, great friendships fused, RR victory, layout, (definitely not pace of play lmao)
- And the last goes to my home course. Arnie's design, the challenge, 20 years of golf memories, friendships, successes.

I could go on for hours on courses that are meaningful to me. I've yet to go to a course and proclaim it's beyond my imagination. Every single one, the experience and who I am with outweigh the course itself.
