How Many #1 Courses Have you Played?

[Armypilot84]

So I know that Golf Week released this list in March, but I just got my first look at it. I have played a small bit of the courses on here (particularly the S. Carolina/Myrtle Courses; and ironically I have not played a single one from my home state: Pennsylvania). But, anyhow; I thought it was cool that I have played the #1 course for three different states: Kapalua in Hawaii, Bethpage in New York, and Bulle Rock in Maryland. So my question is not how many courses have you played on the list; but how many of the number ones have you played, and which ones were they?

 

Here is the link to the list:

[CDM]

9... ([i]more than I thought.) [/i]Arizona, Colorado, Montana, Hawaii, Nebraska, New Mexico, South Dakota, Utah and Washington

Most I played in a golf packages or at the time included the courses on the list. Hawaii would have been a tough one but I was on my honeymoon, so long I do no remember much about the course other than the wind.

[i]Edit: I only listed the states I have played the #1 course. I have played some of the courses listed in Cali, Kansas, Nevada, South - North Carolina .....and given the group I talk golf trips with for the last 15 years... seen a gentlemen's club (or two) in every state [/i]

The answer will [b]always [/b]be never enough.



I've played 6 #1's (AZ, ND, OR, UT, WA and WI) and a total of 43 on this list. I really need to get out to the East coast and find out what great tracks are out there.

I hear you. There's plenty of great golf in the Midwest, and in the South during the winter months, so I never think of heading east. I've got to make a trip to hit some courses in New England, and east coast.
