[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll ask what a few of us are afraid to ask.

Which country clubs would qualify at the "Big Three," to borrow DCUM language.[/quote]

Congressional Country Club, Columbia Country Club, and Woodmont maybe in Moco.[/quote]

Sorry, but no.

It's: [b]Congressional, Chevy Chase Club and Kenwood.

[/b]then
[b]Burning Tree, if you're really a full blown anti-semite.[/b]

Kenwood?????  What are you smoking.  The course stinks, it's incredibly short and the club is owned by a for profit private corporation whereas at Columbia, Chevy Chase and Congressional, members OWN the club and control how money is spent.  Kenwood is decent as a B level club, but it does not compare to Columbia, Chevy or Congressional.  Any honest member there will tell you the same.

Also, Burning Tree has plenty of Jewish members - no women, so get your facts straight.[/quote]

Agreed, Kenwood is a good club, but not even close to the other three.  [/quote]

Kenwood isn't as polished as the larger clubs mentioned, but the golf course -- while a little shorter than the others -- is quite challenging and in terrific shape.  Long Par 3s and Long par 4s.  The greens are mostly elevated and fast and flat lies on your second shot are tough to come by on most holes unless you are supremely accurate off the tee.  It is a tougher course for mashers without a sharp short game than any of the bigger courses.  The athletic/fitness facility is state of the art -- easily best in class.  Kids programs; esp. swimming are tops.  Plus it is sooo convenient for families west of Wisconsin Ave.  Ownership clubs are a pita. You never know when that next assessment will come calling.[/quote]
