Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club - Gator/Panther Course
About
Located just northwest of Tampa, Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club sprawls across the lush landscape of the west Florida coast. The club offers three nines: the Gator, the Panther, and the Bobcat. The nines can be played individually for a quick round or in three different 18-hole combinations. The Gator/Panther layout offers a good balance of challenges and player-friendly features. Narrow, tree-lined fairways are complemented by generous landing areas. There are sparkling lakes and ponds that come into play on a few holes and strategically placed bunkers are situated along the greensides. In addition to the three golf courses, Silver Dollar boasts one of the area's most extensive practice facilities, which includes a full driving range, two putting greens, a pitching and chipping green with a sandtrap, and three practice holes.

Golfer Reviews
Conditions
Course was in “good” condition overall. Some areas very wet, to muddy. Other areas dry & sandy .
Greens were fast and in relatively good condition
Interesting layout
Played it for the first time, need to try the 3rd nine. But for the cost, it was worth it. Are there bare spots, yes, is everything manicured to perfection, no. But for what you pay to play there, it’s a fun little track.
I’ve played this course many times over the years. It’s unfortunate that the last year or so the course has not been taken care of. The greens are not in good condition and the fairways have some green on them. I wouldn’t say it’s grass mostly weeds. This course could be better if it was given the care that it needs. I will not be going back there to play.
typical
Lots of water and a few traps justlike most of these courses. Greens seemed to have a bit of contour to them but the putts didn't break.
player
greens are fast fairways a little rough on the back
Faitways
Being early in the year, The Fairways were a little rough, Sandy, and bare patches. It was our first time on the bobcat trail, long holes. Enjoyable afternoon, can hardly wait to come back.
Hidden gem
I love this what I call a hidden gem , 3 different nines to choose from, I’ve played here 3 times in the last few months and they keep it very nice and always improving the course, worth every penny.
Greens good, fairways, not so much
Low cost, Sunday morning round with reservations made the day before.
Most fairways were not in great shape but we knew that going into it.
Greens are in good shape.
If you are looking for a more pristine course in better shape you’ll best to
Keep looking. We had fun for the price we paid and didn’t wait on any hole.
We had lunch afterwards at their restaurant and it was pretty good with a friendly staff
I played Silverdollar for many years, but it’s been a while since last I played it. The condition of the course seems to be deteriorated. I don’t see myself going back there unless they improve the overall condition. There are too many other courses in the area that are in much better shape for the same amount of money.
No Grass!
Fairways were dirt. The foot golf flags are red and were mistaken as being the flag.
They should be a different color and paint the stick too so it is clearly different.
Great course, slow play today
This is a great course however pace of play was super slow today. We were behind a foursome of young men that were very slow, sharing clubs. Talking a lot.
That is not common on this course though. We normally have a great experience.
have played here many times before. the course was in good shape. will play again if the rates ever go down.
