Greens were Great

The greens were rolled and consistent. Much better than the Preserve greens I played a few days before. Also happy to see that the two putting greens have been joined and also enlarged. It still needs a little buildup in long "valley" that was created, but otherwise nice.

First round of the year

Course was in overall good shape. Bunkers were under construction so you could not play from them(good thing I didn't land in any bunkers). Was not happy the entire 12th hole was closed. I specifically asked when booking if there was any work being done on the course and I was told no..."We are wide open and ready for play." Exact quote from person who answered the phone.

First time here pleasantly surprised

Course was in nice shape. Greens are quite fast and true. Nice layout with quite a bit of elevation changes making it an interesting round. Pace was decent but there was a very slow group 2 ahead of us but we were two twosomes trailing. The two in front of us gave up about #15.

New owners are doing great

Honestly since the new owners have taken over it has been great. i have not played here in years until my friend said new owners have really turned the course around. And they are not lying I honestly haven't seen the course in such good shape. Some rough spots here and there on the fairway. But other than that greens perfect and had a great time

Pricey and slow

The greens fee was too high for the current conditions of the course

And the starter was judged mental

Pros and Cons to This Course

I've play Bay Hills off and on over the past 20 years, but generally only play it once or twice a year. I would recommend it, but there are caveats which are outlined below.. First the Pros...staff is friendly, the property is very pretty nestled inside a community, and the course was in decent shape. I was able to get a discount from $74 to $66 because of the Tee Time Digital Pass. Now for the Cons...the bunkers generally have very little sand and some are just dirt/mud and have weeds growing in them; the layout is pretty tight with narrow fairways and side-by-side holes (primarily on the back); the greens had recently been aerated and were pretty fast considering; and the course was in decent shape, but definitely needs some TLC. It's in better condition than previous years I've played, but still needs some attention. The one issue I have with Bay Hills is #10-#14--these holes run side-by-side and we had balls and players coming onto the hole we were playing from all different sides. (Other players couldn't seem to stay in play on their hole.) This caused us to have to wait to tee off until our fairway was clear and slowed us down, and backed up the course a tad (and there was no marshal). Again, I recommend the course, but know that it's tight, surrounded by houses (so don't be wayward--you might hit a house), and lots of doglegs and some blind shots with sloping fairways. It's a moderate challenge, but don't plan on gripping and ripping it! It has one par 5 and three par 3's--mostly all par 4's.
