DeBary Golf & Country Club, a Lloyd Clifton-designed course sits on hilly land. The layout is fascinating. No two holes feel similar. Only two holes have water, but there is significant sand. Dense woods of pine and evergreen border the fairways. The rolling fairways and natural layout give the golf course a Carolinas feel. The par 5s are all in the 500- to 550-yard range. The par 3s are all approximately the same distance, running 180 to 190 yards from the back tees, and 150 to 160 yards from the white tees. DeBary is one of the few Clifton golf courses that do not top out at more than 7,000 yards.

Aireated and Sanded Greens`

Greens were pretty and rough as a cob. Took all the fun out of the day, while we waited with 3 other groups at every par 3.....charged retail plus for what should have been a discount course.

Elevation changes

Sadly when I played the back 9 was not open for play so I opted for only 9 holes.

I found a course that was challenging not only due to elevation changes but also challenging angles to the greens that made them extra difficult to hit.

A true advanced golfers course with narrow greens demanding control of approach shots with high cuts , low or knockdown shots and the occasional draw into the canted greens.

The sand shots were also no gimme even with the bending pin placements.

It left me wanting to return to see how the back nine was configured.

Decided to give it a 2nd chance...

Played Debary Country club about 6 months ago on a Saturday. It took 6 hours and 45min to play. Decided to give it another go yesterday on a Sunday. We quit on the 14th hole because of slow play. The course was in okay shape, greens were bumpy, fairways were decent. But I will not play there again, it's just too slow. They need to quit overbooking and they don't monitor it at all.

Windy day

Weather was windy so it added to the difficulty of the course.Fairways a little thin,they had been verticut.Greens were fast.Need a little more growing in.But that is due to the early season and weather.Price was very fair.You hit off mats on range.Overall a good layout and good for the price.Pace of play was good.

Enjoyable golf

Little tighter than a lot of central Florida tracks. Nice assortment of 4 & 5 pars, but par 3s are a little weak.

Greens, tees, and bunkers were good, fairways thin, but I think they are working on that
