I have a buddy coming down from MIA for a visit this weekend. He is a golf NUT. Which are the best courses near SD? I know there are some in Juan Dolio, Metro CC etc. Is it tough to get tee times? Any in SD proper that are worth playing?
My pleasure....

Why I have good memories of Las Lagunas.
My son, Marco (a.k.a. Mo?o?o) was a very good golfer and he played there often. Each year they used to have the Big Five Tournament. Five person teams with a maximum and minimum handicap, playing scramble, I think. Each team put up $5000 so the winner'spot was over $100,000.
As usual Mo?o?o's team was on top in a big fight with some of his good buddies. They were on the 18th tee, tied up. Mo?o?o offers to split the pot (1st + 2nd prizes= about $175000.) The other team said no, so they went at it. To make a long story short, a fair drive, a perfect approach (its a 5 par) and before a huge audience a magnificent putt for eagle to give his team a bundle of dough...
He came home and gave his mother about $10,000 of his share....
Just one more reason why we loved him so much!! He was a prince is so many ways. And that is why I just love that course....
