About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6735 yards
Slope 135
Rating 73.4

The Galleon/Brigantine Course at Shipyard Golf Club combines two of the three nine-hole golf courses at the club. Galleon/Brigantine has a rating of 72.7, with a slope of 133 from the championship tees.

The original nine holes - Galleon - meander through large oak and tall pines. Accurate placement of approach shots into heavily guarded greens is necessary on this nine.

Designed by Willard Byrd and built in 1982, alligators sun themselves along the scenic, water hazard-filled Brigantine nine holes. With slight doglegs and well-placed bunkers, this golf course requires shot making and a good short game.

Great condition especially for January. Very fair layout with no tricked up island greens or “windmill” holes.

Nice course… greens are very hard & tuff putting. Most of the holes had a “ridge “ around them. I think it came from removing the soil from the hole. Some putts barely rolling into the “ridge “ then rolled 10/12 past the hole. Nice fairways, carts are nice.

Fast firm greens

17 of the 18 greens were in great shape. One hole had some issues in back of the green but all were thick, smooth and much quicker than the looked. Although the greens were relatively flat, any slope had a huge bearing on the rollout. Overseeded fairways made a nice target and defined landing areas.

The starter wasn’t very customer focused. We were a twosomes put between two foursomes when he could have joined another twosome just ahead. Foursomes ahead of us took 2.5 hours to play front nine with nobody in front of them. We left after 9 holes.
