Augusta National at 9, NEVER ~ 10, on a rainy bad day~ 11, OK their slow fast.
Speeds 9-11 regularily~
World Woods~Homassa / Juliette Falls~Ocala / Red Tail~Sorento / Mission Inn El Campeion~Howey-in-the Hills just to name a few. Spring/Summer/Fall rates in the non-wicked $35-$45 range. Winter rates a bit higher but not wicked.
PS~ 9 or 10 are not tournament speeds normally.
