For those of you who play, how's the golf in the Pensacola/Milton area? Any recommended courses? Any driving ranges close to the base?

Eglin has a nice course.

Both NAS PCola and Whiting Field have courses, but I never played either them.

NAS Pensacola (Sherman Field) has a pretty nice course. Whiting . . . . not so much.

Im not a real golfer, but I used the driving range at pensacola a bunch and played 9 holes once. It was fun, except for the fact I have mo skill and the first fairway lines up with the road. I teed off and almost took out a car.

NAS Pcola is pretty nice for a navy course. It's got 27 holes and a 9 hole executive course so it's never really crowded. In the afternoons they had a decent twilight rate. It has a driving range and a putting green too. Out the back gate you have Perdido Bay golf club. I think it was $30 for 18, a cart and range balls. Pretty nice layout. Over the bridge in Perdido is Lost Key. Warning: It's an extremely tough course for casual golfers, like me and my buddies. We must have gone though half a dozen balls a piece out there. Nice layout though, and I'm pretty sure they have a military rate.

Is it possible to invite non-military guests (my parents) to join me at the NASP golf course?

When I was there a few months ago, Perdido Bay golf course had a pretty good military discount and was a really nice albeit challenging course. Though all courses are challenging at my level so I take that with a grain of salt. The NASP course was pretty nice as well

yes.

Also check out Stonebrook in Pace. Nice course, FAST greens, bargain greens fees. Home grown Masters champ Bubba Watson holding kid's charity tourney there in early July.

Yes. You can escort them onboard. With one phone call to pass and tag I was able to let my dad play at NAS Pax without me even being there.

Is there still a nice course on the east side of the I-10 bridge?

The Moors was a nice links style course. Thats where I learned to putt fast greens. It's too bad it closed. The NASP course was pretty darn good and it's right there at work. I played that thing to death. Also, I think the executive course is 18 holes. Man, I miss playing so much. I would walk 36 holes and call it PT. Add another vote for Stonebridge, too. NAS Whiting was ridiculous, but it was cheap as hell and nice and open.

Osceola Municipal was a good course for the price too, but the layout is so tight there, I'm surprised more people don't get gravely injured. I'll never play it again for that reason.

My wife worked at Scenic Hills up near UWF when I was in primary. Only course in Florida to host a us open (women's 69'). Fun, challenging course with a good men's league. Bubba and Boo have played the occasional practice rounds there. I must've played 150 rounds for free there, I miss flight school...

Tiger point is a windy, challenging course owned by the same company that is very nice. Ft Walton beach has one of the best municipal courses I've ever played. Nasp course is decent, perdido key had the best bang for the buck (nice course with good mil discount). Good luck with lost key (aka lost ball). There's another course whose name escapes me along with the courses up near pace/Milton.

So to answer your question, yes there's lots of good golf in Pensacola
