A little 'this' in the fairways!

I have enjoyed the layout of this course but as of late, the fairways are quite sparse - needing fertilizer and water. Greens have been good and we'll tended to, but it seems like you're getting 'tights lies' everywhere on the fairways. Hope this improves with a little additional car AND some rain from Mother Nature! And the traps need to be 'fluffed up'!

Overall La Cita is a pleasantly challenging course. Very few 'straight-away' holes and enough water to make you think. Green are in very good condition and T-boxes have been seeded. However the faiways in spots need some additional fertilizer/attention. Otherwise, I enjoy the course!

Grassless

I've always enjoyed playing this course, however today the fairways were in the worse shape ever! It was "lift, clean and then find a piece of grass to place your ball!"

Nice course

Overall course was in very good condition. Not super challenging, a bit short but overall a good layout. At 5609yds it's not for the "bombers"!

Needs work

Have always enjoyed playing DeBary, usually in fine shape. Didn't know going out the greens had been aerated, and that's ok, but the "fairways? They are currently a mess! Muddy, barren, lack of 'growth' and in need of some serious work! I'll have to wait at least a month before I go back as it's going to take that long for the course to "recover". That goes for most of the T boxes as well!

One of my FAV's

As usual, Deltona was in great shape. Only issue was that because of weather, bunkers were a little 'saturated'. But if you stay out of them (which there are many) no need to worry!

Central FL gem

This has been one of my favorite courses in central FL - great Trac, hilly, sand and usually good conditions. Overall the course was in great shape - only issue was speed of greens (great condition, but SLOW - maybe a 7!) course has yet to disappoint!

Don't waste your time

Have played here many times and the conditions have continued to deteriorate! I'll say the greens were 'OK' but for the rest of the course -- forget it! Fairways were sparse (even with all the rain as of late) and seemed to lack fertilizer, bunkers were not only unattended to, but on many holes the 'strategic' bunkers we either left fallow or eliminated! And on top of this, encountered a "6-some" on the back 9 - called the clubhouse to complain but never got 'resolved'. Thank god I only paid $18 - even then, that was too much considering the conditions and frustration! Cold day in h--- before I return! Used to be an "ok" course -- not any more!! And in closing, paid $5 for a crummy hot dog!!

Good Practice Facility

Have played here numerous times -- convenient location and easy on the pocketbook. Good course to "practice" on as it's not too difficult (shot 81) but conditions are not stellar --- greens need some attention and fairways are a bit 'weedy' -- tough to get a good lie in the fairway.

Nice Trac

Compared to other courses I've recently played, Mt. Dora CC was in the best condition for this time of year. Overall course was in very good condition and the layout/trac is one of my favorites -- sand. water, and challenging layout. Too bad it's a haul to get there or I would be playing there frequently!

Tight lies!

I've played here a few time and have always enjoyed it. Good tract and moderately challenging. Add to this the value thru Golf Now and it's a heck of a deal. Only issue, and it's because of the time of year and recent weather, is that ya better be prepared for a bunch of 'tight lies'. If you tend to hit em 'thin', you may be in trouble.

Nice Trac

First time playing Debary and I was pleased, esp. considering the drought we've been having. 90% of the course was in good shape and I was happy with the bunkers' condition (esp. since I hit them for 6 holes in a row!) Overall a somewhat challenging trac, a little tight in spots, wide open in others and didn't have to worry about water ( only on 18th hole). I definitely will be returning!

Sahara of the West

If you're looking for water, forget it! But sand? Lots of it and you need to place your T shots well as the Bermuda rough will get you as well as the sand. Many waste bunkers as well as greenside traps. This is a fun course and one of my favorites when its in good condition -- and today it was, albeit the greens were a tad slow. Only issue is that all the pins are the same color and they didn't provide a "pin placement sheet"! With rather large greens, limited line of sight and no GPS, your club choice into the green may simply be a good guess!

Kudos to the Groundskeeper/s

I played Rio Pinar many times over the past few years and once again, found it to be in great condition -- esp when compared with many of the other area courses at this time of year. It was hot, continues to be hot and these conditions tend to 'eat up' most of the courses. Only flaw this time out were the bunkers which could have used a little TLC - a tad 'hard' and needed a good raking along with addit'l sand. Otherwise the greens were about a 10, and rolling nicely and fairways were in v. good shape!

Best round EVER!

Having played this course a few time previously, I was anxious to get back and 'give it a go' again! This time I found the overall conditions better than average and the greens in excellent shape, albeit a tad slow -- maybe a 9 - 10. As such, it helped me to card a 74 -- my best round ever! Had it not been for a 'double' on the infamous 9th, I would have been in heaven! I find it's a course you have to "manage" if you want to score well. Otherwise you can find trouble, esp if you're too aggressive on some of your longer second shots (+ 170).
