Tatum Ridge Golf Links

I’ve played Tatum Ridge several times in the past. The condition of the course has really improved in my opinion. One of the best value propositions in the area.

I was excited to play the course and enjoyed the layout, but the course was not in good shape. One tee box was all sand with a few sprigs of grass. Water was a challenge, but there was no way of knowing where the water line was. Not an expensive fix, just put some red stakes so we can see where the darn water comes into the fairway. It was not unusual to hit off hard pan. Again layout was good, course conditions were not good.

It was in alot better shape then a couple of years ago. Definitely will play again

We arrived 15 minutes prior to our tee time. The starter told me he was sending out the foursome booked after us because they arrived before us. Front nine took 2:45. Pace did pick up on the back nine but the group in front is us did not keep up and were a hole and a half behind the group in front of them. We waited every shot. Very frustrating especially since we should not have been behind them in the first place. No ranger on the course.

You must speed up play. Either give more time, or get Rangers out there to move along the slow players.

It was a 5 hour plus round. Not ok!!

5hrs for round.

Majority of greens in good shape.

A number of tees had no or lack of grass. Others were quite nice. To me that simply means lack of care/effort/priority.

I would return with "golf now " pricing, which is lower than course direct rate.

With the exception of the tee blocks. The course is in pretty good shape. Tee blocks are all tore up

The value of the course is great. 5 hour 30 minute round is far too long.

I’ve played here several times in the past month but play was extremely slow at 3:00. But I will be back as this is a fun course. I’m determined to putt better as I’m having a tough time putting here. Greens are in great shape they’re just difficult for me.

Course was in good shape. Greens were excellent. Great price. Only negative was the slow play.

I’ve played this course many times over the years, but this was my first time this year. I was sad to see how worn and tired it looked. The fairways and greens were in very good conditions, but the tee boxes were pretty much just dirt and dust. You could also see where last year’s hurricanes took their toll on many of the trees around the course. I can’t really complain about the pace of play as our foursome was playing terribly slow - I didn’t enjoy my foursome as I was constantly looking behind us and seeing players waiting to hit. Also, I can’t understand why, in such a busy season, there’s no beverage girl riding around the course. My niece works at a course here in Sarasota and she makes awesome money and provides a great, friendly service. Overall, the course is probably priced right - moderately priced for moderately fair conditions

Plusses - Greens and fairways were in good condition....much better than most of the courses around here.

Minuses - Tee boxes are in terrible shape; some of the sand traps were very hard packed sand; the pace of play was very slow---took 4 hrs and 45 min to complete the round....didn't see a ranger on the course all day.

Tee. Boxes could. Us some work. But fun course and overall good value

staff is fantastic Sotty does a fantastic job thanks again Mark
