A Great Family Day

It was a beautiful day to go out with my grandson, son-in-law and his father. While a few of the tee boxes were a little bare, the fairways were in good shape and the greens rolled true and were in great shape.

Nice layout in reasonably good shape

This was a nice course for the price point. The layout is very nice, greens were in very good shape. The bunkers had good sand but needed raking and the tees were a little beat up. Overall we will play it again.

Affordable

The greens were in great condition.

Many of the tee boxes were in terrible condition as they were nothing but dirt and sand. Many of the fairways also had issues with areas of dirt and sand.

However, the cost of the round verses the course conditions made it a decent value in comparison to other courses in the Sarasota area.

Good greens

Overall course is typical Florida layout with flat fairways and water hazards. Fairways and tee boxes not in great shape but greens are great. Good deal for the money.

Some good and bad, but worth it

Alright,

Lets lead with the negative.

Teeboxes are shot, BUT you can hit from a tee, this is fine even if not ideal.

Fairways have some bad spots. If you aren't a golf snob just move your ball to some grass. That arnt horrible, but they need some real.woek in many places. That being said, I only repositioned my ball 3-4 times that day.

Sand... Woof, just hit from behind the bunker. I get it, bunkers are the most expensive thing out there. Have a plan to make em good.

Alright what is good? Greens are great, and so is most of the area around it. Seriously how do they keep the greens so good and struggle everywhere else? The agent super fast but no dead spots, filled in nice and the ball rolled great. Saved the course in my opinion.

Carts and staff were just fine. I played another place in Cape coral for twice the price and it was in worse condition. I'd actually go back here.

nice course but too expensive

The layout of this course is very nice. We played it several times over a few years. They increase the price too much. The golf course is not in good condition for that money. There are other golf courses in better condition and less expensive.

Best price for this time of year

Prices are getting so high to play golf in Sarasota this time of year that it’s somewhat prohibitive.Tatum prices are still high compared to what we would pay a few tears ago.

The course is in fair shape with greens being the best if you consider the whole package.Tee boxes are in terrible shape.And people don’t use golf path

I would rate it 5 o scale of1 to 10 .Hopefully they are making money and can invest.

The greens were the best I have seen in years. The course is still a little rough and the tees need real work.

The work on the greens has resulted in excellent greens

Good course for all skill levels. The drought has taken a toll on the fairways and especially the tee boxes. Greens were in fairly good condition.

Nice Day

Had an enjoyable day. Teamed with 2 other golfers. Pace of play was surprisingly good!

Needs some grass on the driving range and quite a few tee boxes, but fairways and greens were in nice shape. I will definitely return.

Improving

Tatum has my favorite track. It is in the wilderness with no homes boarding the course. Over the last couple of years the fairways and tee boxes have improved and the greens are in great shape.

Our group has decided we do not play out of Tatum's sand traps. They are unfair and harder than a rock. They need some real work.
