The executive courses are mostly par 3, nine-hole courses. The executive courses in TV form a trail. You can play 18 holes of executive golf (or 27 holes, for that matter), by scheduling adjacent nine-hole courses back-to-back. As someone else mentioned, the executive courses are excellent for working on your short game. They are also a good choice for beginners.
Course conditions vary, not necessarily by executive vs. championship. In other words, the championship courses are not necessarily in better shape. The advantage of the championship courses is that they have the common range of par 3, par 4 and par 5 holes. They are more suitable than the executive courses for serious golfers (whether high or low handicap).
By serious golfers, I mean people who'd rather golf than have sex. Just kidding. I just mean people who LOVE golf. I'm a high handicapper, but LOVE to golf.
I love playing the executive courses, but play "real" golf on the championship ones and love them more.

I asked and was told one could only schedule 9 holes (except for Yankee Clipper, and that's only temporary). Is there really a way to get a reservation for 2 exec courses on the same day?
I heard from another golfer last trip that sometimes in the summer only on certain days you can play certain other exec courses as 18 holes, but not all.
Actually, don't think I even want to play 18 anymore, but still feel somehow this need to know . . .
