Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club - Panther/Bobcat Course
About
There are three nines at the Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club, which can be played individually, consecutively, or as three different 18-hole combinations. Each nine has a unique layout with different challenges but all share the same lush landscape covered with stately trees and water features. The Panther/Bobcat combination offers a mix of narrow and wide fairways, some of which are lined with trees. A few strategically placed bunkers come into play along the greensides and there are also water hazards coming into play on a number of holes. Located just northwest of Tampa along the west Florida coast, the nines represent the best of Florida golf. Silver Dollar also boasts some of the area's most affordable rates, which makes the versatile layouts doubly appealing.

We can then all over the course Photo submitted by Gilbert3585586 on 05/27/2013
have played there many times in the past. have found the course in really good shape.
Worst golf experience
I came to this course with four friends to play golf, 5 in total. As soon as I arrive the two guys in the pro shop had a belittling attitude as we paid for our tee time. They immediately addressed us by saying “you guys better not be playing 5”, which is understandable, yet we weren’t even able to ask. They were not civil whatsoever and when we mentioned that the course was empty and inquired for reasoning to why we couldn’t, they said nothing and disregarded it. On top of that, the greens are so poorly maintained as there are practically bunkers in my line as I putt. I’m disappointed as I paid 50 dollars to play and will NEVER be going to this pathetic excuse of a course again in my life.
have played there many times. in the off season is the best time, all the snow birds are gone. which means you can play a couple shots on each hole. solid practice.
have played here many times. this time of the year is pretty slow. take advantage of the slow time, and take a shot or 2 over. it makes for a great practice round.
have played there many times. the course was in great condition. highly recommend a round or two.
Fun & friendly
I enjoy playing golf at Silver Dollar... friendly staff, good pace, and always a good time!
Terrible
Smelt like horse poop the entire course. Course conditions are terrible. Wouldn’t recommend spending 40 bucks for this atrocious place ever. Clubhouse was very nice and the people working, the course was just terrible to play smothered in horse poop flies trying to eat you up every shot. Greens looked like sand traps just not the course to play in Tampa.
Cow Pasture
If you enjoy bare tee boxes, weed filled greens and fairways that look they have just been plowed to plant the corn, then this cow pasture will meet your expectations!
have played the silver $ many times. The course was in really good shape.
Needs work
Course was in fair shape. Greens were slow and inconsistent. Fairways were in pretty good shape. Tee boxes were under repair.
Get what you pay for
Silver dollar throughout the years has always been a get what you pay for type of golf course. If the greens were mowed better and the course was more consistent in tee boxes, fairways, greens, etc. it wouldn’t be half bad. They are trying to make improvements though!
