If you are going to try Holler in the Hills, stop by Wolf Knob DGC. Wolf Knob opened in 2022 and was designed by John Houck. It is off the north boundary of Mammoth Cave National Park.It's that time of year again. Let's hear where you're heading in 2024. Any and all trips. Long trips, day trips, whatever. Let's hear it. This is always one of my favorite threads to peruse each year.
Personally, I'm thinking about heading down to Louisville KY in April to get away from the freezing nonsense up my way at that time of year. Looks to be some pretty solid courses down that way. Plus I've played less than 20 courses in IN and KY combined. May try to check out Holler in the Hills, even though I know it's a shell of it's former glory. I'd also be able to hit the top rated one in IN on that trip too, Prides Creek Park.
Then in May or June I'm thinking Portland OR and the surrounding area. Again, lots of good looking options out that way. I'd be able to add a couple states in OR and WA and just play some golf in a pretty awesome and new to me place. Should be able to hit course #1000 on this trip too.
Anyway, where are YOU going in 2024?

I really liked Wolf Knob when I played it in August. Fun woods course with some good elevation change.If you are going to try Holler in the Hills, stop by Wolf Knob DGC. Wolf Knob opened in 2022 and was designed by John Houck. It is off the north boundary of Mammoth Cave National Park.

I think you are going to like Prides Creek. I was lucky to play there at AmWorlds 2022. The extra added OB ate me alive, but the course was so well manicured and lovely to look at. Plus, I haven't played at a course with so many water features before or since! What it lacks in tree cover the course compensates with water cover. Bring along some discs that you won't mind losing....

Pride's Creek has just enough going on to make it a fun course. Open enough to encourage drivers, but enough trees (or at least well-placed trees) to make you really hit your lines, without any single hole being truly "well-wooded." Enough elevation to make things interesting, without any hills you'd hate to drag a cart up or or down. Plus a few holes where the lake comes into play.
But it is a pretty couse with grassy hills, mature trees, and nice lake views.
Definitely good discing, but IMHO a bit overrated at 4.5. I can see it making Indiana's top 10, but not #1 in the state.
Just this fool's opinion.
I hear you. In Apr '22, I took a long weekend to hit as many of Indiana's Top 10 as I could comfortably fit because ....well, that's what we do, right?This is kinda what I was thinking. It's not really my ideal looking course by any means, but It's about damn time I hit the top rated course in IN. I'm more excited about most of the other courses I have penciled in for that trip tbh. I'll just be happy to get out of the awful central WI weather in April so anything will work.
If you're going to Idlewild let me know. I'll meet you there.Ithaca NY area, probably continue the annual trips to Eastern TN, Prodigy factory trip to Georgia, probably Raleigh area for Selinske, Idlewild maybe?, pipe dream of Alaska State Fair.
Also couple trips up to Paw Paw and several to Lake Marshall but those are semi-local.
Yea, I live 4 hours away and can't keep up. I have enough new courses down there to make a day of it again.It's crazy seeing how many courses are in the Houston area now. I really wish I would've played the Jim Mazoula Bayou (RIP) course which I'm sure I would've lost a ton of discs playing back then as well as all the Tom Bass Park courses. I think there was like 3 of them at one point and now I believe it's down to only one at that park.

Tom Bass is now a single course, not using any of the OG courses holes. It's boring to tell the truth and the tee pads had to be temporary so they are just wood and turf.
Brooks is pretty nice, I enjoyed the regular course, have no had a chance to play the Gold course yet, I believe they will eventually get it in the ground instead of just for tournaments.
The one they used for Texas States a few years ago got pulled too, the city sold the property back to another company that opened up the golf course again. To bad, that was a decent course with the best hole 18 I have ever played.
