LOCAL GOLF - Dewsweeping In Northeast Ohio

Me and three of my great friends are avid golfers. For years now my friends Beef, Joe Red, Tex and I have been getting up early on Sunday mornings and playing golf at public courses all over Northeast Ohio. We are usually the first off the tee, as we are not afraid to go early as we sweep the dew. Thus, we have loosely called ourselves the Dewsweepers for no real reason other than it's sounds fun.

What we are going to do here every week or so, is to highlight a certain public golf course in Northeast Ohio. Not necessarily to "review" the course, but to review the overall experience. Example being, how the course played, the strengths of the course, and maybe what we didn't find to be our favorite. We'll look at how we played certain holes, and see if we notice any trends on how the course played for four totally amateur golfers. We'll even bring you up to speed on the hot dogs, and the overall clubhouse too.

The goal is simple. To try to give you a feel for the course whether you've played there before or not. And to let you know what to expect. I'll post links to their websites as well, and give you directions on where it is, and how to get there. We are public course guys, as I'm sure you are too. Our handicaps range from 10 up, so no one is shooting lites out. But there is some good golf beging played, and fun being had. And that's the most important part...as it should be.

The courses will range from say, Sandusky to the west, to Painesville to the east. As far south as Massilion, and Lodi. We'll cover Summit, Medina, Lorain, Cuyahoga, Portage and a bunch of other surrounding counties too. And if we happen to hit one a good distance away, we'll feature that one too. A goal too would be to introduce you to courses that maybe you haven't played before too.

So be looking for our first course experience later this week. And I look forward to posting this, and to help you find the best places to play all golf season long this year. As you go Dewsweeping with me on Akronnewsnow.com
