On the Florida historic golf trail...

Thanks to the staff at Rockledge for working me in asap after i mistakenly arrived 2 hours early for my tee time. I appreacated that. Former Head pro George Wilson is credited as the architect of 9 holes here . But course is very similer to the Donald Ross courses i`ve played Here in central florida, Compares very favorably to Dunedin CC, Daytona Beach South, Palatka GC , Lake Wales CC , And Mark Bostic GCin Gainsville. Tight driving areas
and uplifted and canted greens make the yardage decieving difficult. This is classic golf at its best and quite challenging.Even though i am a golf history nerd I really did enjoy myself, and definetly recommend this golf course.

Closing today....

I live next door and was one of the first golfers to ever play this course. And i was probably the last or nearly the last to play also. Loved this course for many years, great layout, interesting holes. It became badly rundown the past couple years, but i will miss it greatly. I hear it may comeback as Clernont national, next year, we`ll see....

Otter C

I like both of the courses at Plantation, But understand they are very different in layout and design. CR is open while OC is quite tigh and tree lined, in particular 13-17. Those are quite tricky and i still have not come up with a good stagedy to play them. Overall this course is a very good value for the price, I recommend both Otter creek and Cranes Roost...

Arnolds course

My favorite of the the 3 Reunion courses its pretty narrow around the front 9 but opens up a bit on the back side. Not overly long with lots of slope around the greens. It puts a nice challenge of accuate driving and a skillful short game in order to score. Take care on this course as you can get out of position quickly. Takes a few times around this course to really understand where to hit it and where not to.

Toms course

My 4th time around the Watson course and i about have the driving lines and club selections down. Some of the driving landing areas look pretty imtimidating from tees but you actually get more area to land it in then it apprears. Greens are not as sloped as the other courses here and a bit easier to navigate for the average player. Overall i really like this course, its fairly playable for all level of golfers, bit still challenging and interesting to play....

Jacks Course

I wanted to play all 3 reunion courses before i reviewed any of them and i started with the Nickalaus course. I think this is definetly the hardest of the 3 courses. You have to drive the ball really well on this course and then really hit your yardages with your irons. Large uplifted greens with tightly mowed perimeters make it very tough to keep it near in the pins if your not right on with your distances. This is a great layout, extremely well maintained and fun to play. I have played nearly every course in the central florida area and these 3 courses are easily the best in the area. The only ones that compare are the courses at the world golf hall of fame in St Augustine., If you want to play some great courses, definetly take a trip to reunion.....

Had a bit of trouble with my reservation and tee time but Golfnow got it straightened out and i had a very nice round on a very windy day. Golf course has a great layout and is very nicely maintained, with really nice turf all the way through. Fast firm undulating greens were definetly a challenge. Highly recommend a round here, probably Highlands county best course....

I like Dudsdread even though its tight and short...Its a an old design, lots of historic homes to look at, good turf, and a dedicated staff....I do recommend it, but be prepared that its always crowded, and the pace of play for a short course is quite slow....

Better be hitting the ball well and online or you will need a lot balls to play this course... Its a little hard to off the beaten path but a nice drive out to it and really pretty golf course if you like views of water....Could be in a little better shape but well worth the price to play...

Gonna miss you......

I went and played TC when it opened in 1979 while i was in gobles high school, and many times after that. After i moved to florida in 1986 i would always come to visit family here and while on vacation to the kalamazoo area i would play TC with my father in law. I have many great memories of this course and i was very sad to hear it will close after the 2017 season. I sorta feel like i am losing a member of my family. I know it sounds silly, but its true......I suggest playing here before it closes, its a beautiful clubhouse for a 19th hole beer.....

Decent course just a mile or less from the Atlantic. It has pretty good greens as far as speed and condition. Its moderately short so it can be walked easily. i did not care for the seashells in the bunkers but everything else was good. Worth playing if your in the area....

This course has small greens and some tight driving holes so its a bit harder then the par and the length would suggest.Got a hot deal here so i decided to walk rather then take the electric cart to get some excercise.Its an excellent course to walk so i enjoyed that.

A classic old Donald Ross course, its not long, and has a good amount of space to drive to ball on most holes, although there is a couple tight spots out there. The challenge is the steep sides of the closely mowed areas around the greens. Be prepared to be accurate with your irons shots or your ball will quickly run off far away from the green.
