Bent “Fallen” Tree

Layout was excellent. There were at least 120 trees that fell during Ian. Lost of cleanup still to do but course is clear lots of stumps remain. This is a premier layout of the past that needs a lot of updating. Green were great but a little slow likely after aeration and tee boxes reseeded. Cart paths are in need of work. Sister course River Club same issues but playable.

Tanglewood Delight

Covid has shut down the great restaurant and you have to pay $10 to ride individual, but the course is in great shape. We joked today that when I started playing here I played from the blues tees, now I’m playing from the gold. Always a pleasure.

Back from Florida

Family played today. All loved the course. Tee boxes are hurting. What’s up with that. I will be back but put some turf on tee boxes. Aeration is not enough.

IMG is for me!

Loved the layout. Greens true. I have been in FL 5 yrs and never player. I will be back- as soon as they get rid of the trees and water which continually attracted my ball. :)

Can’t finish Myaka Pines

Myaka Pines is still a mystery to me. Today was our second time to play Myaka yet both times it rained and we could not finish. I was impressed with the care of the course, wide fairways and lots of water but oh, so fair. We will certainly go back- this time we were presented with full rain checks but a wonderful pro shop crew. While it is a bit a drive to get there, we shall return.

Always good golf at Tatum Ridge

While I always like playing here I also want it to be better. This is a great layout both fair and challenging, but the more I play I want the conditions to improve. Half of the ponds are bogging in and could easily be groomed better. Fairways could use a little over seeding and mowing could Helen a lot. Love the course. I will continue to play but....

Old but new

This is a grand old course. Wow. In its day how grand. Today some work is need on cart paths and finish on rough but I can just imagine how grand this place has been over the last 119 yrs. it is kind of magical and my wife and I just loved the layout. The staff was terrific. Starter G was a marvel. We will be back.

Hogs gone wild

This is a very playable layout. Love the water and gators. I don’t let me how much of the course has been ravaged by the wild boars from the area. Huge areas of grass is torn up. Will wait to go back.
