Been there and played it. When the wind blows, it is impossible. And it blows up quickly and intermittently with huge gusts that last for 10 minutes at a time, then just as mysteriously, disappears. The only saving grace is that it is open and flat with fantastic greens. An unforgettable experience and definitely the best course I have ever played.

The Ocean Course should be played every 8-12 years as part of the PGA Championship staple courses. Been to Kiawah twice, the only major issue I see is getting spectators on and off the island, that has to be a logistical nightmare.

Even with well-made electronic re-creation and simulation, this course is both challenging and ruthless! Very few holes have I been able to actually lower my score on, and if your drives or iron shots aren't true, nor consistent, maintaining Even Par can often become a real problem here! That treacherous Par 3 17th can totally destroy even a good round!

If you think Kiawah Island (Ocean Course) is BIG, wait until you see its "Twin brother" Congaree Golf Club in Ridgeland, SC. It is as big as Torrey Pines (South) and Kiawah (Ocean Course). You will see that course in two weeks (June 10-13) week before the U.S.Open.

Does the narrator at the end say you ill experience one of the most miserable rounds or one of the most memorable rounds? My experience was a bit of both! There's just nothing like this golf course. Leave your ego at the door. Just go experience it for yourself. I would even add "magical" to the list of superlatives!

Ocean is over rated and overpriced for 90% of golfers, unless you are a low single digit handicap. Played all the Kiawah courses in ‘96,97,98...my recommendation, Go down the street, Turtle Point and Cougar Point are much nicer and more playable. Ocean lost 5 fairways and 4 greens to disease one year(98?)then wanted $170 for a replay. Next year our 12 went to Pinehurst and found golf heaven! 21 years later we still go annually! The course choices are endless with many top quality tracks within a 5 minute drive.
