Red/White at Myakka Pines Golf Club

Fast true greens. Great layout requiring several different shot types if you want to score below par. Friendly professional staff. Cart was clean and worked properly. Cart GPS matched within a yard or spot on my golf app which is always a plus.

Afternoon tee time, weather hot and humid with threat of rain. Course was in good condition; greens were a bit slow but true. Based on time of year, time of day and the weather, our twosome had the entire course to ourselves. Played 18 in roughly 2 1/2 hours. Layout is not complicated or difficult, but holes were interesting. Great value for the $.

Lots of rain so lots of standing water. The bugs were bad because of all the water. But overall goo cant blame the rain on them. I would play again, just be aware of the weather.

Great value and friendly staff. Tee boxes need some help but greens were very fair and fairways in great shape. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

I had a 12:04 tee time, and arrived early so that I could hit some balls. I checked in the pro shop who then told me to check in with the starter. I made contact with the starter who said that it was a very slow day and he could get me off early, saying he could get me off "right now." I explained that I wanted to hit some balls and putt and he then informed me that the range was closed. He said that I could chip, and use the putting green if I was interested in that. I told him I would do that for a little bit and then I would tee off. He then told me just to check in with him before I went. After chipping and putting I went to look for the starter and could not find him. I went into the pro shop and explained that I was looking for the starter and they told me that he went home early. I explained that he had told me I could get off early and they told me that I would have to wait. I said that nobody was waiting on the tee and nobody had teed off in the last 20 minutes and his response was I had a 12:04 tee time, and paid a discounted rate, so I'd have to wait. I explained that I came early to hit range balls which is included in their rate, but the range was closed. His response was yeah so you need to wait. He then made me wait for another 15 minutes while nobody teed off. Not sure if he was having a bad day or if the power just went to his head, but I won't be in any rush to go back.

Great course no houses for now so enjoy the true gem for a little longer.

Course is in great shape. Greens are fast and true. Staff is friendly and professional as always. Enjoyed the club house refreshments and food at the turn. Thanks for a wonderful day.

You can spray it around a bit and still score. The greens are fast and I like them that way.
