Slightly OT: French Lick
« on: October 12, 2007, 04:26:54 PM »
On our discussion of an 'Elks' Donald Ross course in Southern Ohio, John Kavanaugh advised that I should play French Lick for a much better sample of his work. He advised that I call  for Winter rates, being, as I am, a thrifty soul. I did.

French Lick is $75 weekends, $50 weekdays, but will close after Thanksgiving weekend [as will Lassing Pointe FWIMC]. He says they want to do some more work on certain holes, though he did not say which.

He also told me that their 'Crown Jewel'; the new Pete Dye course, will open late Summer 2008. He sounded quite enthused about it. I did not DARE ask a price ...... I'll will pass that nasty chore back to you, John, or to whomever else is not discouraged by the thought.

Thanks for posting this.  I'm sorry to hear they'll be closing after Thanksgiving as I had several great trips to French Lick last December.  Maybe the opening of the Dye course next year will lead to lower rates at the ODG course.....at least I can hope.
