 There are about 20 courses on Maui ranging from moderately difficult to "golfing to the death." Wind is the most impressive factor in Maui golf other than maybe the gorgeous views. Play early in the day to avoid the strongest winds, which in the afternoon can blow steady at 30 miles an hour or more, strong enough to blow a high ball back to you. Practice low, line drives before you come, or take a lesson in wind management from one of the many fine teaching establishments. Most of the courses are Bermuda grass, which has a putt altering grain. Greens fees run from over $200 to less than $30, most are in the $140 neighborhood. Elleair (formerly Silversword) is a good value at about $75 including cart. It's about 30 minutes southeast, in Kihei. Just to the North are the three
courses of Kapalua, home of the Mercedes Open, and just to the South are
the two Ka'anapali courses. |
