Birkdale Golf Club

Designed by golf legend Arnold Palmer, Birkdale Golf Club’s course transforms natural beauty into challenging obstacles, with 200 acres of rolling hills intersected by streams and framed by mature pines. The course’s bermuda fairways lie beyond elevation changes that give way to greenscapes festooned with ponds and deep, stone-lined bunkers that test players to use every club in their bags before desperately reaching for the oversized soup ladle. Once approach shots find the green, golfers must putt precisely atop the firm and true crenshaw bentgrass greens.

Birkdale Golf Club pampers players before and after rounds with a practice range and onsite tavern trimmed with rich wood hues and green leather barstools. The club also staffs a team of PGA pro instructors who school pupils in the arts of swinging and scorecard penmanship with private lessons and group clinics.

The Academy’s V1 Video Analysis software helps instructors to shed light on the murky abyss of pupils’ swings by playing back each shot in slow motion to pinpoint the root cause of each unsightly slice and snap hook.

Knollwood Golf Club

Spread across 270 historic acres, Knollwood Golf Course is a challenging 36-hole facility comprised of the Old Course set right alongside the New Course—both designed by well-regarded course superintendent Jack Harris in 1970 and 1989, respectively. Players can opt for a round on the Old Course or the New Course links and enjoy hole designs that embrace the natural Ancaster topography and families of wild golf carts that roam free. Elevated tees and long, perplexing par 5 holes with ominous names such as Buried Treasure and Redemption lead to finely timed fairways that open up into stirring panoramas. The Old Course entices advanced club swingers, and the New Course's more accessible series of par 4 holes with large, accommodating greens is appealing for beginners.

Knollwood players don clean-cut golf attire and enjoy a golfer's paradise that has been open to the public since 1992 and keeps players happy with sprightly paced 10-minute tee times, on-site restaurants and beverage carts, and a "no-argue" rain cheque policy.

Twin Creeks Golf Club

Commended for its preservation of the natural Texas landscape, Twin Creeks Golf Club features an 18-hole course that seamlessly integrates native trees and two flowing creeks into a pristine, 6,840-yard layout. All of the picturesque par 72’s difficulties are brought to bear on the par 4 13th hole, where a strong headwind may nudge rightward drives into a rippling creek and an immense green makes any two-putt a tricky proposition. Golf carts glide across the immaculate meadows, occasionally spinning their wheels and wailing their reverse alert in distress as passengers approach the hidden lake of the 17th hole, called the “Devil’s Elbow.” Golfers can calibrate their swings at the course's practice center, which includes a driving range, bunker, chipping area, and putting green, an ideal spot to covertly test any remote-controlled balls. After a day spent making sand angels in every bunker, guests can recess to the rustic confines of the Elkhorn Bar & Grill, where Southwestern fare sates diners resting at patio tables or under the 50-inch flat-screen TV located indoors.

Paschal Golf Club

The verdant nine-hole course can be played from four different tee boxes, offering a challenge for golfers of all skill levels. Golfers can loop the nine-hole course twice, allowing them to correct errant shot selections on difficult holes such as the eighth, which presents a forced carry over an elongated pond to reach the green—a heavily fortified zone guarded by bunkers on both sides and another water hazard behind. The tranquil Richland Creek trickles through the course, treating eyes to frequent sightings of wildlife such as deer, birds, and grazing golf carts. A clubhouse, snack bar, and pro shop cater to players as they unwind or stock up on gear, and a putting green warms up pendulums before rounds.

Fort Lauderdale - 69% Off Lessons at Edwin Watts Golf Academy

$23 for a Private Swing or Putting Evaluation at Edwin Watts Golf Academy ($75 Value)

Details

Like mailbox-destroying delinquents, struggling golfers need professional help and video evidence for them to see the errors of their club-swinging ways. Set clubs on the right path with today's Groupon to Edwin Watts Golf Academy, redeemable at the Tampa location. Choose between the following options:

• For $23, you get a one-hour private swing evaluation and digital recording of the lesson (a $75 value).
• For $23, you get a 30-minute putting evaluation and a digital recording of the lesson (a $75 value).

Edwin Watts Golf Academy's certified instructors remedy the faulty golfing techniques of players ages 6 and up during one-on-one swing evaluations that pinpoint the root of wayward slices, pulls, and hooks. The 60-minute session corrects off-plane strokes with the JC Video swing-analysis system, which digitally records the student's swinging motion with a special laser attached to the end of the club. The resulting video shows participants errors in their follow-through, which may include unbalanced setup, loose grip, and the failure to let go of the club as it sails into a water hazard. Immediate feedback from the instructors and online access to the video helps golfers stay on a consistent plane, straightening out their swings and curtailing stroke inefficiencies.

Golfers who would rather overcome obstacles in their short game can enlist in the 30-minute putting evaluation, which measures strokes across eight critical parameters using the Tomi system's infrared transmitter. The small device corrects errant strokes by recalibrating tempo and path and realigning the club's head and shaft at multiple points of the shot, including impact with the ball and caddies playing defense. Similar to the golf-swing students, all putters depart with access to digital recordings of their lessons.

Cedar Rapids / Iowa City - Ski and Golf Packages at Lake Geneva Resort

One-Night Stay for Up to Four with Two Lift Tickets or Two Rounds of Golf at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in Wisconsin

Details

Golf, Skiing, and Water Park at Expansive Resort and Spa

From the summit of The Mountain Top, skiers can survey much of the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa’s sprawling, 1,300-acre property. Three miles from the shores of Geneva Lake, the AAA Four Diamond resort livens up vacations with two championship golf courses, an indoor water park, and 18 ski runs that zigzag down the slopes.

During downtime, deluxe courtside or lakeside rooms offer a restful haven in the resort’s ranch-style lodge, inspired by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. A bevy of restaurants cater to different tastes, from the signature fillet medallions at the ChopHouse to handmade pasta with lobster from Ristoranté Brissago, which imports fresh mozzarella, wine, and bespoke suits from Italy on the weekly. Two cafés and a pair of bars and grills offer casual dining alternatives.

Between Grand Geneva's two award-winning golf courses, The Brute challenges even the most accomplished players, whereas the Jack Nicklaus–designed Highlands course accommodates higher handicaps. After scaling the 35-foot rock-climbing wall or playing tennis in the indoor sports complex, guests can unwind at the WELL Spa + Salon. Indoor and outdoor hot tubs bubble year-round at TimberRidge Waterpark, a sprawling facility with a lazy river and twisting waterslides.

Lake Geneva: Where Mansions Meet Watersports

Once a haven for Chicago's captains of industry, residents of Lake Geneva lived large in the 1920s in their mansions along the lake’s shoreline. Some of those mansions still stand today, including the Queen Anne–style Black Point, open for public tours by land or boat. Such homes and history have lent Lake Geneva the nickname “the Hamptons of the Midwest.”

Charming shops and brunch spots line Lake Geneva’s downtown, but the real draw is Geneva Lake itself. Visitors can take in a lake sunset from Flatiron Park, or hop aboard one of Lake Geneva Cruise Line's old-fashioned steamboats in the warmer months. The line offers a range of public tours, including the U.S. Mailboat Tour, a first-hand look at the last remaining marine mail-delivery system in the country. Mailpersons leap onto the docks to quickly stuff mailboxes before the mailboat floats away and they're forced to hitch a ride on the UPS dinghy.

Coweta Club

Nestled inside 180 acres of tree-lined, gently rolling grounds, the Newnan golf course springs up from the natural terrain, gracing golfers with scenic views of ridges, ravines, and waterways. The meticulously maintained fairways and greens wend along natural, wooded buffers that create a sense of public but peaceful solitude, like delivering a speech from inside a sleeping bag. Golfers hone their short game at the practice green, deliver pep talks to lazy 9-irons at the all-weather driving range, or pick up anything from tees to new clubs at the pro shop. The 15,000-square-foot clubhouse's Coweta Grill serves casual or formal dining fare and slings drinks at full bar, and a sweeping veranda overlooks the 10th tee and its hazards, including the catapult-launched Harlem Globetrotters, who slap down soaring golf balls.

Green Hills Golf Course

Originally sculpted into the landscape in 1958, Green Hills Golf Course winds through 5,933 yards of smoothly rolling terrain bordered by clusters of mature arbors. To compensate for its relatively short length, the 18-hole course catches clubbers off-guard with strategically placed ponds, subtle slopes, and self-destructing yardage markers. Each round takes spiky-shoed golfers gliding around tranquil ponds and past rippling creeks, which add to the course’s shot-impeding obstacles. A nine-hole par 3 executive course stretches out alongside the full-length monolith, beckoning to greenhorns, youngsters, and experienced pin-hunters still seeking their first hole-in-one. A driving range, practice green, and full regimen of golf clinics nurse withering swings back to life, while the onsite restaurant fuels muscles and carnivorous golf carts with all-beef hot dogs and other savory grill fare.

Reason's Golf Academy

Over his 30-year tenure teaching golf, founder Mark Reason has established Reason's Golf Academy locations in Michigan and Florida to spread the wisdom of his ferris-wheel swing technique. This coaching philosophy—designed to build swings that travel on a controlled, vertical axis rather than in a less dependable merry-go-round motion—serves as the unifying force in all of the Academy's instructional programs and as the building block for the development of a consistent, correctable, and windshield-friendly swing. Instructors use golf-simulator and swing-analyzer technology to scrutinize imperfect motions and weighted, molded-grip clubs and other training aids to guide clients toward proper technique. To further optimize patrons' pin-hunting prowess, the Academy offers club-fitting services, which pair clients with the clubs or modified pool noodles that best fit their unique swing profile.

Bent Creek Golf Course's rates fluctuate throughout the week.

Bent Creek Golf Course

Nestled in the scenic shadows of the Smoky Mountains, Bent Creek Golf Course's 18-hole layout stretches across 6,182 yards of fairways that rise and fall among rolling foothills and pristine valleys. Golf legend and course designer Gary Player made deft use of a babbling mountain stream by running it through the course and seamlessly uniting two distinct nines: a front nine that sprawls across the valley floor and a back nine that roams the hilly mountainside like a forlorn sasquatch. The overall effect is a course that does justice to both the sheer scope of the rising peaks with bottom-up views and the panoramic splendor of Great Smoky Mountains National Park when seen from the cresting hilltops of the back-nine. The inventive layout is perhaps best characterized by the 11th hole, a 362-yard par 4 where a 90-degree dogleg-left plays into a green completely surrounded by the creek's rippling waters. A blend of bent and bermuda grasses grows resiliently for golfers striving to play all year-round, and fragrant wildflowers blossom at every tee to warm the hearts of world-weary nine-irons.

Bent Creek bolsters the pin-hunting prowess of its golfers with a staff of PGA-certified instructors that conducts lessons and presides over the domain of their full-service pro shop. A practice putting green helps players trim their score by reading dicey slopes, and the Creek Side Grill hosts postround revelry and community gatherings to decry the historical hardships of the mashie niblick.

Course at a Glance:

• Designed by three-time Masters and British Open Champion Gary Player
• Bermuda-and-bent-grass combination
• 18-hole, par 72 course
• Length of 6,182 yards from the farthest tees
• Three tee options
• Link to scorecard

Weissinger Hills Golf Course’s rates fluctuate throughout the week.

Weissinger Hills Golf Course

Weissinger Hills Golf Course’s 18-hole layout bounds across 6,526 yards of rolling countryside to form a player-friendly par 72. The course’s narrow fairways encircle a quaint, hilltop clubhouse, from which players can plot a pin-hunting expedition that will bring them into contact with treacherous bunkers, water hazards on five holes, and thoroughbreds intent on outsprinting every golf cart and outsmarting every caddy. A stint at the driving range rattles the rust off of swings, ensuring clubbers won’t be ambushed by the demanding second hole, where an uphill fairway and a green hidden behind four water hazards coalesce to form the course's hardest-rated hole. PGA-certified pro Bryan Slone roams the grounds, divulging golf wisdom in various lesson packages. The club’s facilities include a fully stocked pro shop and a snack bar with cool drinks, light fare, and a sand trap full of incriminating scorecards.

Course at a Glance:

• 18-hole, par 72 course
• Length of 6,562 yards from the farthest tees
• Course rating of 70.4 from the farthest tees

The Country Club of Johnston County

Cleaved into the rolling bluffs of the Carolina countryside, The Country Club of Johnston County's 18-hole, Ellis Maples–designed course encompasses 6,573 yards of well-groomed fairways and greens. Dense tree lines guide clubbers across the picturesque par 72, obstructing shots as players attempt to keep orbs on fairways that dog-leg and kitty-purr their way toward distant greens. Ponds dot the emerald landscape on four different holes, threatening ill-struck orbs and foreshadowing eventual retreats to the Club's outdoor pool. The stately complex keeps guests energized with a menu of savory grill fare, while outdoor tennis courts sate appetites for loose yellow fuzz. A dazzling banquet hall stands at the Club's epicenter, where reunited friends and wedding parties can enjoy a warmly lit ballroom, dance floor, and bar.
