Played Candler Hills and Stone Creek the last couple of weeks. Both are in tremendous shape and QUITE challenging. If you want to push the limit on distance, these are perfect. One of the par 5s on CH is 670 yards from the back tees. Geesh.... I believe you can play SC right now for $25 and they even throw in one beverage from the bev cart!
Highly recommend making the drive.

OP, thanks for the information. Most of us don't play from the back tees but I have a son and grandson who might enjoy these courses when they come to visit. They are young and pretty good golfers.
USGA has been pushing "forward tees" concept this year---which I say is a very good thing. First, it can speed up your play and second (seniors especially) and others have move fun. But if you can play from the back tees and shoot 80 or lower----let it happen. If not, USGA encourages you to move forward.
