Recent Course Conditions are Challenging

Played Tatum yesterday and the course Tee to green was Awful. We have never seen Tatum in such disrepair. Many huge patches of dead fairway on every hole made any kind of decent lie impossible. The greens were in good shape for the most part. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The pace of play was very good, but the course was not crowded.

Dry fairways

During the season the fairways were in pretty nice shape, and now they are really dried out. Other than that we love playing at Tatum I’ve been playing there for 30 years

Greens were true

Some dry areas but we are in a drought

Groundskeepers are doing a great job as well as the staff

150 yard stakes would be nice

Greens is great shape

Overall the course was un good shape. The greens were in great shape. Tee boxes were a little chewed up. Fairways had trouble spots with quite a bit underrepair. .However, not bad for the price.

Summer Season / Work being done

Place looks great for just getting through season. Don’t listen to the folks that complain about tee boxes, fairways and whatever else. All courses need a few weeks/months to come back from the heavy non-stop play and sometimes they won’t be perfect for your golf round where you are looking to pay as little as possible and shoot a 95 anyway. Tatum continues to be the best valued course in Sarasota especially now. Join a club if you want pristine year round conditions.

That said - attention is being given - Tee boxes look to be growing in as well as spots throughout the fairway. Move your ball to a better patch of grass you bums. Bunkers are always not great but it’s $35 to play. Greens are soft and slow, adapt. The sun was out and a great breeze. Perfect for a cart walk and 18 holes after work

Course conditions

The greens were in great condition although a bit shaggy. The fairways and tee stations need work.

Overall it was a pleasant day with being paired with a pleasant couple of guys.

Good value

Course was fine but another one still wounded by Hurricane IAN. Greens were in great shape.

Club house needs some improvements and some food options are needed.

No water on the course and water ice only free if you by your own cup

Cours conditions

I like this course because it is pretty wide open and for my ability it's pretty safe. Also, it's relatively close to home. I would like to see then take better care of it. While the greens are in decent shape, most of the tee boxes are awful, very little grass, lots of sand / dirt. The same goes for many of the fairways on the back nine. I know that we've had a drought here over the past year or so but there are several big lakes on property for irrigation. The irrigation system has lots of leaks and apparently is not aimed at the areas in need of water. I hope they can get that rectified soon.

Don’t schedule Tatum Ridge

Fairways, Tees and greens are all terrible. Course is totally neglected. I wouldn’t play this course ever again
