Canterwood definitely doesn’t do it for me. I played there in a Pro-Am last summer and although it is beautiful and well-conditioned, it is super penalizing with all of the trees and narrow holes. You know it can be a long day when the club pro is warning you on the first hole.
Maybe I just need to go see the Home Course again? I think I’ve played it two or three times. Potential Roll Call game?
Pretty much my experience too haha and for sure! We got at least 4 of us that are in the men’s club down there, so there are people playing it pretty often. I’ll def post here next time we plan on it
Mt Baker neighborhood, so if just trying to get out somewhere on a weekday after work then Jefferson. But otherwise usually one of the Oki courses or down to Home Course or Chambers
I did a quick tour through there and LOVED the golf scene in Spokane. I thought Indian Canyons was freaking brilliant and my favorite in the area.
Also enjoyed Hangman Valley. I remember thinking it seemed like a poor choice after the first 4 holes or so were quite boring, and then it was like BOOM. Hits you with some great elevation change and fun holes the rest of the way.
Of the Oki courses…and my feelings about Oki are well documented…Washington National is one of the better tracks for the price. I make the trek at least once a year.
Holes: fun with something interesting on all of them, love the views of Rainier,
Greens: depending on the pin placement it can be a go low or 3-putt day,
Conditions: always good (except those bunkers are like a pan with week old oatmeal encrusted on the bottom),
Atmosphere: nice vibe around the place and staff are great, and totally worth the drive down from/to Seattle for rounds.
For the price and experience, I don’t know of a better course in WWA.
I’d be interested in joining the WhatsApp group as well. Also @decentschott let me know if you’re every looking for someone to play with up on the north end of Seattle.
Went two weeks ago and was in great shape. Greens were a little slower (per friends/playing partners) than the last few months but I thought they were money. Played best round of my golf life
