How is the Pine Barrens rated behind Rolling Oaks at World Woods or Misssion inn el Campeon behind Las Colinas?
We do need to have standardized ranking badly.
And how did Candler Hill golf and Country Club which should not even be in the top 100 clubs in Florida get tonumber three .Please.
I agree with the Golden Ocala ,Southern Hills and Bella Colina but of course these are all VERY private courses and expensive.

Pine Barrens is Outstanding!!!! Especially for the money. Also, if you get a chance, Black Diamond Ranch near by. The last 5 or 6 holes are incredible!!!!!!

Can not believe that Gasparilla is not in the top 5. Not only beautifully maintained but 3 hour round for 2 is long!!!
