Default Where to play?

I have not played a championship course in awhile. I have a guest coming and am wondering which of the following courses is in the best condition. Belle Glade, Bonifay, Havana.

None of the above. Glenview is the best. See other posts on Havana. Of the 3 Belle Glade is probably in the best condition.

I'll tell you where not to play, Evans Praire. We played today and the greens were 50 to 70 % rolled dirt and the rest was light grass that was rolled flat as the dirt. Worse conditions I've ever seen. Klideere to Osprey. Not one green in 18 that was decent.

It’s about a 40 minute golf cart ride for me to Orange Blossom but the course has character and is in good shape. Cheap in comparison too. Belle Glade would be my pick of the three. Stay away from Havana and Evans Prairie.

I know it’s farther north than what you’re considering, but Glenview was excellent today.
