What is your husband's golf handicap? Does he enjoy longer courses or shorter courses? Would he rather walk or ride?

My husband has been on WDW golf trips, and I'll ask him.....but I know these will be his questions! :)

My husband says that your husband might most enjoy Oak Tree (or Oak Trail, he cannot remember!) or Lake Buena Vista. These are par 3 courses. He also said that Osprey and Magnolia are very difficult and may be frustrating for newer or infrequent golfers......but that also hinges on how crowded the courses are. Is your husband looking to hook up with strangers to make a foursome, or are you traveling with other golfers?

Thanks and thank your dh.


My dh is very realistic about his golf and hopes to be able to play more before we go.

My husband is a really good golfer.....and he said that sometimes when newer golfers get teamed up with him and his buddies, the new golfer is anxious and does not have fun because everyone else is moving so fast and hitting so much less. Especially on really good courses, like those at Disney that are used for PGA tournaments during the year. However, if you have a laid-back kind of hubby (sounds that way!), there are no worries at all. Could be that the pro shop teams up by experience anyway. I hope your husband has a wonderful time. Mine has a picture of himself and a friend in a golf cart with a Mickey face on the front....very cute! I'm not a golfer, but I wouldn't mind a ride in one of those carts. :)
