QUICK POLL
QUESTION -
Do you feel that there
are enough quality affordable golf
courses in or around the Atlanta area?
Bill
Fleming / Acworth
There
are quality courses in the area but
affordable can be argued. They
include...Cobblestone, Towne Lake
Hills, and The Frog
David
Bates / Alpharetta
Yes. If you don't mind
driving, there are great
courses to choose from. I
particularly like Woodmont,
Bradshaw Farms and Barnsley
Gardens
Kevin Fay / Smyrna
No, I do not. They
are either
Affordable or
quality. I have
played a good number
of the public
courses in the
Atlanta area and my
favorite is Crystal
Lake. I would say 60
dollars is
borderline
affordable, but that
course I feel is
worth the money. I
have heard good
things about
Cobblestone but have
not had the
opportunity to play
it. I found Reunion
to be a good golf
course but with all
of these, they are
45 to an hour
outside of the Metro
Atlanta area
Kevin Fay / Smyrna
I do feel
like there
are a ton of
quality
places to
play in the
Atlanta
area. It's
always
tricky to
find a good
deal - but
generally my
foursome can
play for
under $50
per person
on the
weekend if
we're
willing to
travel
around.
Right now
Lake
Arrowhead is
running good
specials as
is Indian
Creek.
Country Club
of Gwinnet
(not as
challenging)
is in great
shape and
offering
good deals
as well.
Beth
Etheridge
/ Johns
Creek
Yes,
most
of
the
courses
offer
twilight
rates
that
help
with
cost.
My
favorite
is
St
Marlo
which
offers
a
twilight
rate
of
$29
for
nine
holes
and
a
super
twilight
(5:00)
for
$29
for
as
many
holes
as
you
can
play

James
Whiteside /
Woodstock
ABSOLUTELY!!!
Living on
the NE side
of Atlanta,
I play at
Towne Lake
Hills,
Bridgemill,
Bradshaw
Farms and
Eagle Watch.
There is
nothing like
getting away
one early
afternoon
and cashing
in on the
twilight
specials.
As a matter
of fact, I
am heading
to the Frog
tomorrow
and, thanks
to Golf
Atlanta, got
a great deal
that
includes
lunch!
Stan
Brothers
/
Marietta
Yes; however I would still like to see the courses offer special rates from time to time. As an example, the triple play you are offering is a great program. I enjoy playing Cobblestone, The Frog and Towne Lake
Howard Pinkus / Sandy Springs
Yes. There are many quality affordable courses for seniors during the week Unfortunately most are at least a 40 minute drive. North Fulton is the only course I play within the city. It's decent, close and very affordable and they let you walk
David Olejnik / Atlanta
I live downtown Atlanta and wish there were more closer to the city. But that just isn't going to happen. Of the intown courses I love North Fulton the best. Great scenery in the park, fun course, interesting layout
QUICK POLL QUESTION - Many of Atlanta's best daily fee courses are spread out all over the metro area. Will you drive as much as an hour one way to play a top-quality course and if so, which course(s) will you drive to?
Tim Thiele / Acworth
Yes, I have played the following courses which were well worth the hour drive: Barnsley Gardens Resort in Adairsville, Reunion
near Brasleton, Woodmont near Canton, and Crystal Lake in Hampton are among some of the best.
