Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club - Gator/Panther Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

We can then all over the course Photo submitted by Gilbert3585586 on 05/27/2013
Average at best.
First time playing this course and I found in a little difficult to follow the layout. Needs much more directional infirmation. Score card course layout is very poor. Greens OK but Tee box's need attention plus some fairway cutting could be improved. Nice price if thats what you are looking for.
Ok, I like.
Green and fairway condition improved since last time I played. Staffs some are very friendly but other not so, they are to remember we are the customer!!
golfing blind
Very poor markings to find the next hole ,you could be on the Panther and be on the Bobcat the next hole.They need to have more directions signs ! Cutting of grass was poor due to grass piles on fairways . Would I play here again, yes I would.
3 nine holes course
We played the Panther and the Bobcat great courses, both in great condition, the green are at the best condition.
A great morning of golf!
Course is in good condition. No green-side bunkers helps with the pace of play and lower scores. The young gent at check-in (FSU student) was very pleasant and helpful.
Gator & Panther
Several of the reviews are spot on. Got this course as a hot deal on golf now for about $15 per golfer so you can't beat the deal. Fairways are kept nice, but tee boxes could use some work. Guy in the office is not very welcoming, but the starter was awesome and very polite. Gator course has a lot of dog legs which are difficult but fun.
Worth the money ? Mostly
Overall the course is decent. Its not a TPC nor does it charge like it. Really pretty cheap and its worth what you pay. I gave the staff one star overall because of one person in the pro shop. He's generally short tempered and rude. The others in the pro shop are friendly and helpful and the restaurant staff is exceptional.
Challenging course
They have 3 nine hole courses. We played the Gator then the starter told us there was a tournament in progress ahead and play would be slow on the Panther. We could play the Panther if we like, so we did. Good friendly advice.
The course is challenging yet forgiving. Some holes you will get in trouble if you use the driver off the box. The Panther greens seemed a little slower but still in good shape. The whole course was well kept, no dead.grass or bare spots anywhere that I saw.
Great Course and Great Manager
Bobby Coppabianco is a people person guy. Very amicable and very fair.
Our church held our Golf Outing here for the first time. My congregation loved it, and wanted to play here again.
Friendly and beautiful people is what makes this place recommendable.
Some improvements
It's getting better at Silver dollar since last year. Greens have improved as have fairways. Pin placement on greens difficult
Dry, Dry and Dry
The layout was pretty decent. Some interesting holes. Greens ran fairly well and were in pretty good shape. The fairways were absolute concrete and almost like hitting off dirt. Very difficult when in the middle of the fairway and have terrible lies. With proper maintenance, could be a nice little course
Great value
Nice greens and challenging approaches. It was a great experience. Helpful staff and awesome gators everywhere!!
Course had good distances with lots of water challenges!
The course was in good shape. Greens are fast but play fairly! Lots of distances for holes with fairways in good shape!
Not worth the money
We paid $76.00 (2 players) for this course and drove a little ways to play it. This might be one of the worst layouts I have ever played in 50+ years of golf. It is totally uninspired. Must have be designed by an amateur architect. The condition was pitiful. Then add to it that it is adjacent to the community shooting range. There were loud shotguns going off constantly. It was literally next to the 18th fairway. Absolutely crazy. Do not play this course. A waste of money.
Green Greens, very rough fairways
the course was overbooked so place was slow but not bad - very rough fairways, but nice green greens
some very challenging, nice chap I golf with
probably would not play again because of the fairways
Avid golfer
For the money this is a good course. Fairways are less than average. Greens are good. Challenging.
The Gator course was very wet stands to reason it poured the nite before. You better stay on fairway cause other than that it is nothing but tree roots & bare spots.
