The Cape Club of Palm City

With the looming aerification scheduled for after the holiday, it was a good day to slip in a round at fox club. Staff and facility are top notch as always. Brought a friend for his first time and he was blown away. Only reason it's not 5 stars across the board is that the greens have been verticut for the last couple weeks. Still rolling find just not as perfect as the usual. Today was 90 degree rule due to some torrential downpours yesterday but overall the course was in excellent shape. JJ

1:32 tee time had me bit worried about the heat but the golf gods spared us with some nearby t-storms that helped cool the temps into the low 80’s and provided some cloud cover so Weather conditions were superb. Overall course condition was excellent as always. Greens have been verticut so that is the only reason not giving 5 stars. This is the best joint around that doesn’t require a six figure membership.

We played 18 holes in 2.5 hours.

Average golfers bring extra balls

A few hidden water issues and tight holes but really enjoyable

Tougher than usual today with rain early on then the heat came on strong. Always a great great challenge. Course is playing beautifully.

Great course, lots of critters. Even spotted a couple deer

It didn't start out so great, but ended up being a real pleasant round. Rain can be a bit of a bummer but it eventually ceased. That backed up the Pace of Play, so we joined the twosome in front of us per their offer. Once we began and got a feel for the course layout and conditions-we were very pleased. At times, narrow fairways, doglegs, undulations in fairways and on greens. That added challenges which added to the enjoyment-(most of the time). With some greens having quite a bit more undulations than others, hole placements on or close to ridge lines when the greens are running really fast will require a perfect putt. No margin for error, will effect your average golfer's fun-o-meter(trust me - so hopefully they will not position the hole near ANY ridge lines-ever). The challenges which can make it fun only apply if you are playing well. If you are a higher handicap player, set aside your ego and play forward, bring a couple extras sleeves of balls and start by lowering your expectations. It is NOT an easy course. If you are errant(not the courses fault), you will either find the water or not find it in the woods. I do think a better course layout with distances provided to players (like GPS charting) would make any course more enjoyable (especially first timers to the course)because this course has several blind shots combined with doglegs. You can hit left or right of the center of the fairway, come over a ridge and find out you rolled into unknown trouble(water, ditch"no water yet", rough etc.). The more you play the course, like any other, the more you can make those adjustments.Enjoy

Best value around. Been playing it for over 10 years and NEVER lets us down.
