Has anyone been to the Bluffs recently? The course sounds intriguing. ...
[quote]Write the Metairie CC an email and tell him you’d like to play and why. You’d be surprised they may let you on. [/quote] I agree with your advice. ...
Hey Folks - Great recommendations and advice. Much appreciated. I don’t plan to involve my pro to call Metairie CC, as he helped me out very recently. If anyone is still interested, I’ll look for post. No pressure we can play elsewhere. Thanks again. Cheers. ...
I am coming to Louisiana from Nova Scotia next week with my 12 year old daughter. I will be staying in Baton Rouge, New Orleans and possibly Lafayette. Considering going fishing. I’ve done some internet searching for a good charter/guide and the choices are overwhelming. I would love some reco...
[quote]Tell him to get ready for ground under repair everywhere. We just finished an extensive irrigation project that ran longer than expected with all the rain this winter. There are trench repairs on every hole. [/quote] I will definitely tell him. South has been getting killed with rain. ...
[quote]What kind of places and budget are you looking for? Any certain areas? [/quote] Authentic NOLA is what I am looking for. Will pay for a pricey meal, but it doesn't have to be fancy - as long as it is authentic. I've been to NOLA once about 10 years ago. Enjoyed a Friday lunch at Gallat...
That's good news. Been on Commander's Palace looking for a few different times and apparently booked. Can't get through by phone. Thought everything would be booked up....
Hello, I am coming to NOLA for several days: Friday, March 22 - Sunday, March 24, with my 13 year old daughter. I have not made any reservations. What do y'all suggest? And I realize I am late on planning here. My bad. Thanks...
Hey Folks, Trip is coming up and I am psyched. Daughter and I have been working on our golf games and getting ready. Here is the rough itinerary: Arrive Tuesday, March 19 - Drive to Baton Rouge via River Road, do a tour at Houma House, eat at Roberto's. Wednesday - Play LSU University C...
[quote]Hey Halifax! Coming to play Cabot Links in June and couldn't be more excited! how do you like it up there. Also, if you're coming down for a few days, I would recommend checking out English Turn and Money Hill-both way better than Metairie CC. [/quote] I've lived here most of my l...
Yes they did renovate Shoal a couple of years ago. The changes are fantastic. I haven't been down there since November. Will miss out this trip South, which is too bad. But will be there in April. :usa:...
Everyone, This is awesome! Exactly what I was looking for. Pretty much drooling....
Hopefully things dry out by then. Fly down on March 19....

Broussard/Lafayette Recommendations

Posted by Halifax on 3/6/19 at 7:58 pm
Headed to Louisiana with my daughter for March break. We are going to Broussard to attend the Web.com golf tournament (Chitimacha Louisiana Open). I've never been to the area. Looking for recommendations for local favourite restaurants, with an emphasis on authentic. Thanks...
Bump: Looking forward to getting to Louisiana. Thought I would check in. :cheers:...
Medtiger - I will definitely involve our pro at Shoal if something doesn't work out here. He's set me up in the past. Looking forward to seeing Raynor's LA effort. FWIW - a friend of mine on the tour gave MCC a strong endorsement when I was discussing my plans with him. From what I am rea...
Thanks again to all for the advice. Rendevoustavern - Thanks very much for the kind offer to host and getting guidance from Dave, would be awesome if he is interested. Looking to play on either Friday, March 21, Saturday, March 22, or Sunday, March 23. Also - the trip to NOLA, BR etc is a...
Thanks folks. I'll speak to my pro at Shoal. He's arranged reciprocal's in the past. Thought I would check in here first. If I don't have luck with him, I'll be back. Appreciate the help and advice. :geauxtigers:...
A little about me: LSU fan. Have travelled to multiple football games. Avid reader of Tiger Droppings. Have started threads and posted in the past, but nothing lately. Love golf. Member up here and a member of Shoal Creek in Birmingham, AL. Thanks for the offers to help. :cheers:...
