I bought the yardage guide book and the greens book (I posted a picture of both in an earlier post in this thread). By all means, get the Greens Book. Everything you get in the yardage book is available plus more in Google Earth, and the yardage book was missing key pieces of fairways and creek areas in the yardage book - plus it was $47. It shows some elevations, but Google Earth shows a lot more.

So Pete, how much does it cost to just get the green contour maps?

$97 for the Greens book. But maybe less... When I talked to the guy at Straka I told him that we are a large group and what could he do if we ordered 4 or 5 books? He said maybe he could throw a free course in the mix! If we could pool an order, we could all take a piece of the savings. 4 courses plus a free one: $400 (or so). 5 people pay about $80 each. I have Kingsmill (in VA) on my wish list. Maybe some others would like to get in on it.
Yes, EJ55, please post details on what you get in the Greenslope books. They have several really good Virginia courses including one that I was a member at for 15 years, and was the last professional win of Arnold Palmer. It's been 20 years since I last played it, and I remember some of the breaks in the greens, but to properly do the course I would need more info about the greens. Greenslope is the only place that has it. Thanks!
