TEED OFFWasting life four hours at a time. |
I've always had a golf section on my homepage. I grew up playing on pitch and putts and graduated to executive courses, but I now play on full-sized layouts. Even when I travel, I'm on the lookout for places to fit in an early round of 18. Find out about my game here.
Course Rankings
I've been able to golf in seven provinces and two U.S. states. The following is my ranking of all 103 executive and championship courses that I have played. This list is completely subjective and based on my last visit to the course. If you feel that someplace is ranked too high or low, invite me to play it again and I might change my mind.
