Kinloch, Taupo NZ.  This course could possibbly end up on a few lists.

Arrowtown, NZ. A fun course with terrific scenary. $nz 30 a round.

Jacks Point, Queenstown NZ. Not great but worth another look.

National Moonah, Australia. Very good course, underrated.

Metropolitan, Australia. Not compelling architecture but a good place to play.

*Royal Ashdown Forest    (one of the friendliest places in golf, in my experience)
*The Abaco Club              (prime choice for, say, February)
*Pennard                (I want to hit the tee shot on 16 with the sun setting over the water)
*Noordwijk             (played it in blasting rain, could barely see the holes)
*Golf Club of Uruguay       (toured it start to finish, never played it)

[Michael Wharton-Palmer]

Western Gailes for certain, there is no way there can be 100 courses better than that...oh well
Also MPCC .....The Stranz renovation
Southerness...if it is not there already?

[Dan Boerger]

This is a really great topic IMO ...

1 Fernandino Beach -- Tom Paul is one experienced and accomplished golfer. I really want to find out why he gushes about this place.

2 Inlet -- I always play it on vacation, often with my son, often in flip flops and while the course is hardly extraordinary, it's in a terrific setting (Adirondack mountaints) ... and I'm on friggin vacation.

3 Yahnundasis - This was in my backyard for years and I never really appreciated how neat this course is until I left the area.

4 Walton Heath New - The Old gets the raves, but the New is really the better of the two IMO

5 Old Head - Breathtaking views, great clubhouse, and I've played it only with a great group of guys.

[Brock Peyer]

1.  Cape Fear CC in Wilmington, NC - I was an Assistant there all through college but haven't played it since the restoration.
2.  Murray State University Course - nothing fancy, just the course that I learned to play on, I haven't played there in 18 years and would like to see it with grown trees.
3.  Tobacco Road - once isn't enough.
4.  Hawks Ridge - premier in every way.
5.  Cuscowilla - I can't play there enough.

[Sam Morrow]

San Antonio Country Club
Oak Hills (San Antonio)
Pecan Valley
Austin Golf Club
Pines Dunes
Mira Vista
Roman Nose State Park (OK)

[Ronald Montesano]

USA...(c)Old Town in North Carolina[the varsity guys called it that, said it always felt cold there...], Old Orchard, Webhannet and Kebo Valley in Maine, Ralph Mhyre in Vermont (it's average, but oh those Middlebury language summers!)...that's about it.  Got back to Taconic this Summer.

There are so many great courses out there to play, I have little desire to return anywhere until I've played them all.  My wife won't watch a movie twice and I believe this is rubbing off on me when it comes to golf.

Sadly, my father has recently resigned his membership of Grosse Ile so I reckon I will get a hankering to return after a few years.  Its almost like losing a member of the family not being able to skip over to the island for a game when I am in town.

[Mac Plumart]

Rivermont...okay, I'm a member and just played there yesterday...but I can't wait to get there again.




Country Club of Columbus...a cool little Ross that has many, many fun shots.


The River Club...I think I might be the only person on the face of the planet that likes this heavily bunkered Greg Norman design.  But I like it.


Aiken Golf Club...what a course.  6,000 from the tips.  $25 to walk.  Great greens.  Unkept bunkers.  No rakes.  Total a unique experience.






Augusta CC...why isn't this Top 100 again?  At least GW Top 100 classic.

[Peter Ferlicca]

1. WOLF RUN (once again, IMO one of the most overlooked courses on this website)
2. Wine Valley (one of the most fun courses I have played in a while)
3. Essex County Country Club (A great course just recently restored by Bahto)
4. Sand Hollow Golf Resort (A first class facility, not only is the 18 hole course fantastic, the 9 hole links course is a blast to play)
5. Montesoro (it is in the middle of nowhere in the desert, but it is a fazio hidden gem)

[Scott Warren]

Tough field but hard to look past

1. Brora


2. Huntercombe


3. MPCC Dunes

5. Crail (Balcomie)

[Mac Plumart]

Scott...awesome photos!!!  I love Crail and Brora especially.  Thanks for posting.

[Sean_A]

I am assuming courses not top 100 in the world, GB&I or US.  I will pick ones I don't get to see on a yearly basis and I am assuming Brora & Machrihanish are top 100.  

Old Town
Tenby
Perranporth
Lakewood Shores
Princes

Ciao

I think Old Town and Princes are now top 100 something so off they must go.  I will stay with Tenby, Lakewood Shores and Perraporth as I haven't seen them since the original post.  I will add Cavendish and U of M.
