Babe Zaharias Golf Course

The course always looks good and they have a good pace of play most times but exceptional two thumbs up for the safety precautions put in place so we can continue to golf thank you Babe Zaharias staff

I’ve been golfing babe for awhile , as it’s my local course. The front 9 fairways need a bit more love , but the greens , tee boxes and remaining fair ways are in the best conditions I’ve seen in years!

My brother and i play here often.. However today. The staff was RUDE dismissive and out right snobish. We showed up 20 mins early paid. Assign with another twosome seemed fine. After being told no twosome today period. We agreed and began the round. Well. Low and behold a twosome starts pushy and pushy us to play faster. WAIT WAIT I THOUGHT THEY SAID NO TWOSOME, after letting them play through what another twosome. SHAME SHAME , So when i said something to the operations manager she ROLLED HER EYES as i was speaking and kept interupting. i finally said enough. I am not asking for anything. We wont be back. To many other great courses around to waste your time here. The staff STINKS HERE. THE SO CALLED MANAGER ALLIWS HER FRIENDS TO SKIP AND DO AS THEY PLEASE. if you are an avid golfer. Skip this

First things first at 600 yards the course is not long, do not let that fool you.

If your short game is not in good shape it will messed you up.

The greens are in awesome conditions so are the fairways

The greens are all elevated so you got that to deal with.

Bunkers are great.

Because is not long you would get away with errant t-shots

No range to warm up, so just use 5 iron or less the first hole is not long at all.

I love it, and I recommend it if you just want to see the state of your short game, or if you just want go and enjoy a good round with no pressure , go check it out.

Played on a Friday afternoon with warm but not uncomfortable temps, slight threat of rain but nothing serious. Course was pretty empty with a couple of singles playing through, but never had to wait and was never pushed. Played as twosome in about 3:30.

The course is in good shape. A couple of the greens had some patchy crabgrass that was cut back and did not affect putts (much). Greens were moderate speed - a little slow compared to better courses.

The layout is excellent, as there are varied types of holes. The rough was not very punitive - I have heard it can be bad but we didn't see it. Fairways were almost without exception good.

As municipals go, it was excellent and for the money ($26) you couldn't beat it.

Played the Babe Nov 10, 2019 with my son. Course is in excellent condition. Best golf value in Tampa. Had a great time. Thanks.

It's been a long time since I played the Babe, but I won't wait so long next time. Always a challenge, this is a risk and reward course that allows you to play at your comfort level. Go play!!!

The conditions of the course are what you would expect for the money you. Also, you need to understand it is a city course (at least that what I have been told). The course has a very fun layout. There are a mix of drive-able holes, lay-up holes, force carries, long par 3's and hard dog legs. It is a great course to practice all facets of the game. The greens roll okay. Not too bumpy but not too fast either. The biggest problem I experienced was how thick they keep the rough. Its a great golf course if you play from the fairway the whole time but if we were all doing that would it really be any fun...

I have played this course several times and have enjoyed it each time. Don't get scared away by the rating, it isn't that bad.

Nice grass on greens just a little long so a little slow. Fairways we're very nice. Rough is cow pasture so stay in fairway! Nice tee boxes. Good carts. Tight course so it's challenging but fun.

Starter has the personality of a rattlesnake poise to strike. Manager, ranger and restaurant personnel all very nice. Course short and narrow between houses but small sloping greens makes it challenging.

Only 6000 yards from back tees. As with the 2 other Tampa Sports Authority courses, Rocky Point & Rogers Park, this course is well maintained.. The fairways are plush & the elevated greens roll true & fast. The Par 4's on the back nine are long enough to be Par 5's for short drivers like me who only drive 240 yards. There are few houses visible on the course, & they're no where near play. There are a lot of roads that run parallel to the holes, about 4 holes have roads on both sides of the fairways & that got into my buddies head. This is why the course reminds me of Mayfair Country Club & Rolling Hills Golf Club near Orlando. I enjoyed the course & will return to play it even though my buddy won't.

Good layout, decent fairways & greens, value price after noon $23 with cart, very good grill food

Greens keepers lack in knowledge in how to do pin placement and repairing the old cup hole I could count up to as many as 7 to 12 previous holes on each green. Sand traps were not racked properly and had to much growth on the insides of the sand traps. Fairways had different types of weeds and grass growing in them.

Got 18 in before the rains came and they still rank right up there with some of the Orlando high end course for the best greens. Great pace of play....even with three walkers ahead of us. Staff as always very friendly and accommodating. The price was definitely right and the greens while a bit slow ran true from 1 through 18. Always a treat to play......

Overall a really great value for the money. The course is in pretty good shape based on municipal course standards. The main drawbacks to the course is a lack of a driving range and the 7th hole is a "gimmick" hole IMHO. It's not a long course at around 6300yds but it is tight with a few hazards that can come into play and has some tricky greens depending on the pin position.

good city course - close to city with mature trees and a few ponds.
course in good shape.

I enjoyed my round of golf here but the greens needs some work and the fairways grass need to be tended to other then that I enjoy the pace of play and staff there

Some of the tees are in really bad shape. Some of the fairways are too. But the greens were good.

Played early afternoon on a weekday. Finished under 4 hours and had a lot of fun. The greens were in great shape but the tees were a bit crispy and sandy. Did not take away from a nice day. For what you pay, it was a good deal and a nice quick round. It's not TPC, which is fine because you're not paying a TPC price.
