Golf Odyssey's Year in Review bundles together our global golf travels of 2008 in one information- and advice-packed issue. It includes a comprehensive index to every golf course and hotel review we published in 2008.

This handy guide first retraces our year-long route around the world, providing an ideal frame-of-reference for some of the most significant news to come out of popular golf vacation destinations and emerging hotspots.

We then treat you to the 2008 edition of our legendary Best and Worst Awards. Always provocative, categories for 2008 include: Accommodations of the Year; The Most Overrated Course in the Caribbean, Best Private Course in Florida You Can Play, and Best Modern Golf Course in Scotland..

This issue also includes Golf Odyssey's list of Platinum Places: The World's Best Golf Destinations of 2008-2009. Unlike other lists that are too broad to be useful, this one segments golf destinations according to their unique strengths, making golf vacation planning easier.
