Golf Club At South Hampton

It's been a while since I played here last. I wasn't disappointed after hearing the course was not in good conditions a few months back. To my surprise and excitement, it was just as good as you'd expect this time of year in north east Florida. The Greens were good on most of the holes, and definitely need a bit more growth, however, they were true and slightly faster than the average 8 - 9 you expect from a public course. I've played at SH many, many times over the years, and I just love the layout and challenges it offers.

Made very welcome by both staff and players on the course and in the clubhouse. I rented a set of ladies clubs which were practically brand new and reasonably priced to rent. The fairways were in very good condition. We were made aware by the pro shop and the starter that the greens had recently been diseased but were getting better. They were not as bad as what we were expecting having been told this. The tees are not numbered however as we stuck to the path with the buggy they were easily found. Good practice facilities available before you play. I would recommend playing this course if you are in the area.

My fault for trying to play on a holiday weekend I guess. Every out of town guest who only plays once a year wanted to get in a round while visiting relatives in Florida, I suppose. Spent an hour playing the first 3 holes behind a group that included some guy in jeans and a t-shirt who took 3-4 practice swing every shot to chunk or top it 50 yards if he was lucky and the rest of the group wasn't much better and all equally as slow. We skipped the 4th hole to get past them and didn't catch another group until 11, that's how bad it was. Never saw a ranger or employee once. I gave up at 11 seeing nothing but slow foursomes ahead. Greens are spray painted green but I've rolled better putts on carpet compared to most of them. Rest of the course in good enough condition for the season, but the greens are NOT back yet.

Greens were splotchy but rolled fairly true. I played with a member who informed me that new greens would be coming sometime in the next two years.

Had a pretty good round until 2 holes on front nine and 2 holes on back 9.

Played behind a shotgun start event, so had whole course to ourselves. Good course conditions, beautiful weather, wonderful outing. The house salad in the bar/restaurant was excellent as well.

The greens continue to struggle, though they have improved. 1st green had been sanded and was all scuffed up from the machinery. A few other greens still had patches of mold or whatever they've been having problems with for the last 2 years. This course is greatly overpriced in my opinion for the condition of the course and the staff in the pro shop is hardly ever friendly. Fees listed in my review included a small bucket of balls (not part of greens fees).

With the exception of a few greens, the course conditions are pretty good. The greens are not totally ruined; there are areas on a few greens that have damage. The course appears to be making efforts to get them back

The course is shaping up nicely. The greens are much better and roll true. A little slow but not bad. Will play again here soon.
