“SWAMPMOORE “

First off let me say ... the course should not have been open for play . Conditions were unplayable . It had rained the night before 1/2 inch . I called over said they were open cart path only . It was beyond wet . I understand but close and protect the course . Anyway , upon arrival I literally stood at the counter of 15 mins before the pro shop attendant “ bald guy tall “ might have been a manager , had his head up his @a#% , even acknowledged me . I had to say “excuse me “ is this where you check in ?
Yeah what’s your name ? Grab a key and go . Do I need a starter ticket ? Nah your good . Whatever . Played this course once before , forgot how bad it was !!!
Never again !!! The only silver lining is I had 2 others golfers that were very nice company .

A hidden gem

Although not overly long . The course provides
Plenty of challenges , with some sloping greens
And some well placed hazards . I played back , with some heavy rains the night before it was a good test . Greens are in nice shape course is well maintained over all . Staff is super friendly . Thanks for a great round .

I like it

Alway a great time at the neuse ...
Greens are firm and in great shape the layout is challenging from any tee box . Fairways can be wet in spots and tee boxes should and will get more attention when the season ramps up . But for now it’s a great value . Great staff and pro very personable .

Great layout

One of the nicer courses in the Tampa area .
They greens were a bit slow and healing up from being punched . They were top dressed as well .
I played pine Barron’s the following day and the green were nicer .
I enjoyed the layout and scenery.i will come back to play these courses again as they are truly two gems for golfers of any skill level.

Needs some work here and there

Course has potential ....was able to play the share holders nine which was in decent shape for this time of year . The back nine on the public side was in rough shape . Tee boxes were poor, the layout was querky . Over all the greens were rolling nice .
Not a long course if your a big hitter . Overall I enjoyed the day And had some fun

Nice track

First time paying unc finely .
You can see it’s a nice layout . It was a
Chilly day with some light wind . Sun was out but the course had taken on some snow the week prior and rain a couple of days ago , this cart path only .
We didn’t know that until we got there , no worries
this course ... you’d be better served walking .anyways . Front nine was nice from one up tees 6700 . Ahhh .. But then the back really tests you .
Gotta drive your ball well here .
Unfortunately, the greens were slow and bumpy like Velcro . I’m sure this is not the case most of the time and due to the previous weather. Will try it again when conditions are better

Big boys course !!!

Been wanting to play this since forever....
Finally got a chance while visiting some family .

Course is spectacular , a real test of your game greens were very fast ... I would guess around 12.
The facility Is first class ... they had the grass shut down due to maintenance seedling . No biggie 7 bucks for bucket . Weather was windy and cold so we played the red tees 6500 or so . While one of the college kids played black 7000

It’s crucial that you play the right tees for your HCP
In order to enjoy yourself here more than ever . I’m a single digit Hcp and in this day with the weather and course difficulty I had all I wanted in my plate .

Pace was slowwwww.... in fairness there was a large group of golfers that were stinking up the place ..rangers had there hands full and we did have a two some jump in front of us . Other than that all was good .

You can see the city from on a few of the holes make sure to snap a few shots without holding up pace.

Staff was professional and courteous.

Love to try this again with better weather.

So... the greens are fast and in nice shape . Somesort of hybrid greens on the firm side .The course plays about 6400 form the tips and se ts up nice . Pretty much everything is in front of you.

Up and comming

This course was literally resurrected from near dead I haven’t played it in a few years because it was so bad.However ,I was hearing good things about it lately ... so I booked a tee time and I’m glad to say it’s recovered nicely . It’s obvious they put a lot of time and money into greens , bunkers ect The staff is friendly and professional as always .
I did run into a few members jumping around on holes and such , and thus ,some slow play (no ranger) but overall it wasn’t a deal breaker.. I’m glad for the principles and management. They’re nice folks .congrats !!!! Well done and good luck

Hidden gem

I've been playing this course on and off for years now . Greens are always in great shape . It's a point and shoot course with plenty of doglegs and water .
Very challenging, especially from the tips . Lots of houses on the course ... but you still feel somewhat secluded. FYI, you will not see a ranger to enforce pace of play and you may run into some slow play from time to time , but that's to be expected with any muni . Give it a try !!! The price is always right !

Diamond in the rough

Got a hot deal on golf now 44 bucks . 130 tee time .regular rate would have Been 69 bucks glad I didn't have to pay that!!!!!Course was running about 10-15 min behind schedule.
So we hit the range . MATTS only . Oh well .
The tee boxes had no grass, and the fairways were dormant and in poor shape . The greens were fertilized and top dressed , but ran true and were rolled and quick ,Tough to hold . Played with some regular customers they said they never seen it this poor shape .
I Played here before this time of year and they overseeded but no this time around .This was a one of my favs....
I will try it again in the future , but this time it wasn't worth it .
Pace of play was poor , no rangers and no bev cart
Waited on every hole played over 4.5 hours .
Weather was nice :)

Overall....A nice day out !!!

Can't beat the rate of 12.00 on golf now !!!
The staff was very friendly and helpful..
no starter ... just check in and make your way to the tee box .
Didn't see much in the pro shop or much in the way of food and bev. But adequate for off season .
The course was tight in certain areas and a lot of doglegs , uneven lies . Greens were smallish but overall in great shape . Bunkers great shape. Fairways dormant a little bumpy ..
Overall, I enjoyed the round of golf and meeting and playing a few holes with Chris, a marine veteran who volunteers at the course . Thanks for your service brother!!!!!!!
