TDS is by far the best golf course in TV in my opinion. I'm going to disagree on the staffing. The Pro Shop Staff is ok, especially if the nice lady from New Hampshire is at the desk.

Brett is great, whether he's in the starter shack or being the Ambassador. I've had at least 2 or 3 "incidents" with other staffers there, who don't know anything about golf and/or don't know the Cart Rules currently in place.

& I'd prefer not to have to play 17 into the wind, every time I have a good round going on.

LOL, that hole has ruined a good scoring round a few times for me. I have learned the hard way to play one or two extra clubs than I would typically play for the yardage on that hole. The bottom of the swamp in front of that green must be covered with multiple layers of drowned golf balls.

I haven't hit a fade or slice since 1998, so I have to hit about 4 extra clubs .... the more left you go, the longer that hole gets! I just aim it in the rear bunker. Making 4 is like a Birdie.

My men’s golf group of some 15 players with good knowledge of golf played Shallow Creek. It’s not a complicated course. It’s easy to play, very open, not much trouble, zero shade, not very interesting from a technical playing standpoint. Honestly, the courses above 44 are much more interesting to play. If you want easy this is a good course. We noticed if you want a “target” to aim your next shot it was not easy to find one because the course is so open and lacks topography. That said, we play all Village champ courses and will keep it in our rotation.

I was saying the Southern Oaks has the best Greens, Tee Boxes, and Fairways. They are the best maintained in the Villages. The Crew under the Superintendent management has done a outstanding job.

Pardon, but you said was:
"The Best Course in TV
Southern Oaks is the Best Course in the Villages."
