PEOPLE I NEED HELP!

Hello I am in miami right now and I need to book a round for next saturday today I played the blue monster at Doral and liked it however it was not worth the money. I am scheduled to play the great white course at coral next saturday however I do not want to pay that much money if its not nice. People i need advice best courses in the Miami area by the way you have to stay at turn berry to play there so that won't be possible. THANKS FOR THE heLP!

I was down there a few weeks ago and played the Country Club of Miami west course... where Arnold Palmer was the 1st pro and Jack Nicholas played his 1st PGA event. Course record is still 66.

Looks like a muni when pulling up, but looks are very deceiving. I had fun at it!

Crandon Park , Key Biscayne,champions tour used to play here.

The Club At Emerald Hills in Hollywood,a great course with great greens.


Have a great day.

i played normandy shores saturday - course is in GREAT shape - greens were fast and true - and a nice challenging layout - no repeat holes.

Good deals are usually the Biltmore Course and Miccosugie courses (nationwide tour plays there). Also I always thought that the Doral Silver course was the best value of the Doral courses...also try get on Parkland if at all possible it's another Greg Norman design up north that always had the best greens in the area for me....its private but there was always ways to get on.

+1 on Normandie shores. Good track and for the price it was well worth it. From what I remember, Miami Shores wasn't too bad as well.

great white is not worth playing, i hated it.

Try crandon.

The only thing I hated about great white ... well 2 things... was that...

1) The 20-30 mph winds
2) Not being in 'golf-shape' (only played maybe 1-2x a month since Nov up here on the frozen tundra that is New England). Not that it's an excuse for my poor performance, but it does hurt things quite a bit.

I second Crandon and Normandy Shores.

There's also a course in North Miami Beach called Hillcrest that is a nice little hidden gem.
