The Biltmore Golf Course
Played On 02/24/2017Biltmore
The course had a great layout with little water. Bunkers were in great shape and made you hit accurate shots upon the Green. The greens were rather slow, but putted consistently. Fairways were fairly open and gave you lots of room to drive. I played the blue tees, about 6,200 yards. I could not reach any of the par 5's in two shots, but could easily get there in three. The pitching and putting greens were top notch. I also enjoyed the outdoor restaurant area following play. The only issue I had was parking. Would highly recommend this course to friends.
Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne
Played On 02/20/2017Crandon Golf
The course was right on the ocean with great views of the Miami landscape. The layout was fairly tight with lots of water throughout the course. The fairways and greens were in great condition. If you hit the ball straight, the course is fairly straightforward forward. If you hit erratic tee shots, you're in for a long day. I played twilight, so couldn't start until 2:00. We played in 4 hours, so pace of play was good, but it was getting dark at the end. At the end of the round, the bar and restaurant, we're closing. Grabbed a couple of bars and sat in a beautiful outdoor seating area viewing the sunset. I would definitely recommend this course to friends.
Trump National Doral Miami - Red Tiger Course
Played On 02/17/2017Trump national - Red Tiger
The course was first rate in every aspect. You drove up and your car was valet parked, it did cost $20, however. They took your clubs and placed them on a cart. The practice facilities were to notch, with a driving range, chopping and putting green being available. The course was challenging, but fair. Fairways were fairly open, but needed to avoid the water on your drive. The 18 holes were comprised of 6-par 5's, 6-par 4's and 6-par 3's. We played the gold tees, which was right at 6,000 yards. Even with this yardage, all of the par-3's were fairly long, 170-200 yds. I had a beer and wings in the outdoor area following the round. Thee facilities were great and the staff friendly. I was in a foursome and we finished in 4hrs and 5 minutes. No waiting and pace was smooth. Every cart had a GPS system that also kept track of pace of play. This was a great experience that I would definitely recommend to friends.
The Senator Course at Shula's Golf Club
Played On 02/13/2017Shula Golf course
Played the Shula Golf course for first time. Played the gold tees and it rewarded you if you hit a good tee shot. The fairways were fairly open, but there were a couple of holes were you were challenged to hit across water on a diagonal to get maximum distance. The course was in great shape and the putting greens rolled consistent.
There was no draft beer or beer specials, but Jackie was really nice and provided great service in the pub.
If would recommend this course to friends.
Miccosukee Golf & Country Club - Dolphin Course
Played On 02/08/2017Miccosukee - Marlin and Dolphin
Both the Marlin and Dolphin were both very nice courses. Most of the holes were surrounded by sand traps that were in great condition. I signed up as a single but joined up and played as a two-some. There was a couple ahead of us that let us play through. We completed 18 holes in 3 hours.
The putting greens were well maintained and fairly consistent.
When I signed I signed in the pro shop made no attempt to pair me up. Getting Golf carts was not straight forward. I had to find working to show me where to go. Very little customer service.
However, really enjoyed the course and would recommend to others.
Emerald Bay Golf Club
Played On 01/26/2017Emerald Bay - Destin
Emerald Bay was an outstanding course. We played the III tees, which played about 6,000 yds. On a good drive I hit around 240 yards. From these tees, I could drive and hit the Green comfortably in two shots. The course was challenging in having lots of water. The fairways were pretty open, if you avoided the water. I was a single and got matched up with two additional players. We played 18 in 3 hours and 20 minutes. Never had to wait on a single shot. They had folks to unload the bags and the starter offered tips on various holes. They had a cart girl that was fun and provided cold beverages. Great experience, would recommend to friends.
