What’s going on with the old Abita course? Anyone know?
I drove out there a couple of weekends ago and the lights were on in the clubhouse. But really nothing going on except they built what looks like a concession stand on the driving range. The grass on the range was also mowed.

The driving range opened last Saturday at Abita. $20 all the balls you want to hit.

Last thing I saw them post about it was they were trying for March/April. They built a little bar at the range, been having live music on the weekends.

t that is a stretch at $490/month
Who gave you that number? I don't know of a membership category that is $490 a month, base dues. And if you are under 40, its about $275.

From a current member(Over 40). That is rolling the initiation fee into the monthly(We Poor)

I'm a member at Beau Chene, but frequented CCC often, and had my email in their distribution list.
Got the email yesterday announcing their new prices. Haven't played there in 2 years, but if everything I've heard on here is true about the upkeep, those prices are harsh.

I’m a BC member. My advice would be to negotiate that initiation fee down. You should be able to get it down really low.

Slidell has Oak Harbor, Royal and another not worth mentioning.
Hammond has Oak Knoll. Carter in Springfield.

Golf In Louisiana just flat out sucks, I moved to Chicago and there are more good courses in a 5 mike radius of my house than the state of Louisiana. Land sucks for golf and courses compete with tax funded agencies like Brec which destroys competition

I played CCC today $62 and they said no rain check because they are making us aware their is rain in the area. Lol. We got the round in but come on man, be better. Oh well I live in Mandeville and only play maybe once a month

Holy shite!! $62 bucks, that place is a $40 course on its best day.
I was a member there for 10 years and I dropped last year because they went up on the dues and the course receives no quality maintenance.

Harsh truth … this is why Louisiana golf sucks. What is the difference between $40 and $62? Both are super cheap for a round of golf. Keeping up a course is crazy expensive.
If you pay less than $100 for your round, don’t complain. It is what it is. If that $22 is that important to you, this probably isn’t your game.
People I know that are members of clubs with nice courses in TX and FL are paying $500-$900 a month and cart fees. That’s on top of $20-$80,000 initiations. Even the decent public courses in Houston are $100+. There just isn’t enough money in Louisiana to support great courses.
