About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6813 yards
Slope 142
Rating 73.3

Twenty seven championship holes await travelers visiting south Florida's scenic beaches. Grand Palms Golf & Country Club in Pembroke Pines also offers three nines: Royal, Sabal and Grand. All three are famous for having some of the best greens in the area, and the golf courses are played in three separate combos. The Grand/Royal 18, designed by Ward Northrup, comes in at 6,813, most of which is blanketed with palm trees and tropical foliage. The longest and most challenging of the Grand Palms' golf courses, Grand/Royal features some especially memorable water holes. A tight layout with raised greens (perfect for testing your shot-making talents), beware the Grand's bunkers, strategically placed along the greensides.

Cow pasture

With the amount of play traffic course amazingly in decent shape, only a couple tee boxes are actually turf, but dose it really matter, even on 3's most players use a tee.

Fairways basically 40% turf, I'm not an agronomist, but if most players would fill there divots, how costly would it be to keep a mixture of seeded fertilizer sand in the scoop boxes, I believe in the long run that would totally help fairways growth.

Compared to area courses the greens rate 80% excellent, if most players were taught proper etiquette and convinced that fixing ball marks and raking traps is a good thing, and I am pretty sure the course has a green roller and used it more it would make a world of difference, just saying, just a few of my thoughts, or dreaming.

At about $ 50 bucks in Florida this time of year the price is ok. The course needs work tee - green but has some nice spots. Hopefully they will continue to invest more money to improve it. This was better than last year.
