About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 69
Length 5454 yards
Slope 121
Rating 66.4

The Chi Chi Rodriguez Golf Club, centrally located on McMullen Booth Road a comparably short course, offering just 5,454 yards from the blue tees and a slope rating of 118. Most of the fairways are wide, making errant shots still playable. In essence, it is the ideal place to work on your golf game, to correct that nasty slice or learn to hit that oversized driver without fear of losing 100 balls. As a result, it is a favorite among novice golfers who want to be challenged but also have an enjoyable round.

Love this course

On vacation in the Tampa area for 2 months and went to Chi Chi Rodriguez 3 times,

Fun golfcourse to play, great condition, great staff and teeoff times not too close together like many golf courses in the area, we had many examples of this in the 18 times that we played.

Chi chi’s

Very interesting layout for a short course. Condition is about the same as other courses in the area. Pace of play is slow and no rangers. Quit after 10 holes as 3 groups were waiting on the next tee. Will be better when snow birds go home

Short but some challenge to it

Course is short for big hitters but offers a lot of different shots. Pace of play was probably the only drawback to the course. I would play it again now that I know the layout. Greens were very good.
