Frankly I’ll be very surprised if anyone posts here that’s seen all three.
I looked back. So far in four pages of this thread we've only heard from three people who have visited The Covey:
Sam Morrow [who's a fan, and hasn't seen the other contenders],
Paul Jones [who hasn't said much about it],
and Derek Duncan [who is obliged to defend the result].
Tom,
I loved the course and think it is the best in Texas. However, it seems that Sam is the only person that played it so not much to discuss. I spent 2 days with a friend who is a member and attend the club Christmas party.
I remember just about every hole and could talk more about the course, but this discussion seems to go in different direction.
I have played Tree Farm couple of times, but only the loop (7-hole preview loop) at Old Barnwell.
I've gone back and forth and can't decide if it's my favorite course in Texas but it's definitely close. I still can't get over how much fun the green complexes were, I'd feel like I'd had a fun day if you just had me drop 50 yards from every green and play in from there.
