Babe Zaharias Golf Course
About
Located just 20 minutes from downtown in the Forest Hills section of Tampa, Babe Zaharias Golf Course meanders through a tree-lined residential neighborhood. The golf course measures a modest 6,020 yards, but should not be taken lightly. Although both nines on "The Babe" are par 35, the back side sports four par-4 holes in excess of 400 yards, providing a challenge for golfers of all skill levels.

Maintenance needed.
Second time playing this course...first time this year. Slow pace due to older gentleman in group ahead of us. Tight lies stood out the most. Tee boxes needed some care.
The worst was two the three carts in our group had next to no brakes! If you didn't park on the flat your cart rolled away from you.
That could of been dangerous and maintenance is needed to avoid a accident.
Short, but challenging.
The short par 4s can be difficult. Make sure to hit plan your tee shot. The tee boxes need a lot of work, but the greens were smooth and fast.
First Time
First time at the babe, exactly what I expected not amazing but definitely worth $40! Cool layout, shorter course makes it challenging off the tee!
:"The Babe"
The Babe was in good condition,. Pace of play was great. Greens were fast but true. Fairways could use a bit more grass. Round of golf tested your game into and around the wind. No flop shots today. Nice job remodeling the food service facility and folks who were there mid oprnaing and early evening were very curteous and frendily. Chips were greeat!!!!!!!!
A good muni course
I enjoy playing at this course. Before I played there for the first time, I heard rumors that it was in poor condition but I wanted to try it anyways. I was surprised with how healthy the fairways and greens looked. My only complaint is the rough is kind of non existent and mostly just sand and dirt. More incentive to hit fairways in regulation lol. The staff is really nice here which is rare to find compared to other courses in the area. The pace of play was a bit slow, but there’s only so much you can do in prime golf weather, and all of the nearby courses get slow this time of year so it’s not really anyone’s fault. I will continue to come back, it is a fun course. I look forward to making many more three putts and 100+ score cards at babes
