Rating 74.9

The Silver Fox Course (formerly known as Jim McLean Course) is one of five 18-hole courses at Trump National Doral Miami. The courses offer a good game for players of any skill level. Unlike the Gold Course at the resort, the Silver Fox Course does not follow a traditional Floridian layout. There are elevated tee boxes and greens and narrow, rolling fairways. The golf course features an interesting variety of holes, short and long. Water hazards come into play on 16 holes of the 18 holes and there are also bunkers situated throughout. The course's signature hole is the 14th, which has an island green.

Horrible round of golf

We were expecting a great experience playing Trump National Doral. Unfortunately, the Silver Fox course was in terrible shape. The greens were bald in so many spots and full of sand. The tees were all chopped up and hard to find a spot to place the ball. In 2 locations the water coolers were empty.

Silver Fox Rating

Although I liked the design and the challenges the course presented, some of the greens (5 of 18) were in bad shape. The first hole is also extreme from the Gold tees, requiring a 235-yard carry against the wind. In general, it is a nice experience, and I will get back, expecting better green conditions.

Overrated

To .e this wAs just the slapping on of the Trump name to a course that is worth at most 75 bucks per round. Poorly kept greens and not great neighborhood to look at.

Silver excellent as usual, members need cart governors!

The staff, course layout and conditions, pace of play and amenities excellent as usual. Play the course weekly and have been playing the courses at Doral for over thirty years. The Silver became even more appealing when a bridge was built to go from the usual check in point at the main property instead of driving off property to Silver. Unfortunately at the end of our round, after coming off the Silver bridge, a member came out of nowhere behind us lights flashing, horn honking and tailgating before we even knew what was happening on this narrow road that leads back the clubhouse via the Gold Course. I pulled over with little room to spare so he wouldn’t ram into us and he passed us. All the while with a 2-3 year old child in the cart. As we passed the second hole green for the Gold this cart stopped briefly because his Yeti fell out of the cart. I said excuse me three times to get his attention as passing him by with no response and him proceeding to cut me off en route to the clubhouse. Paramount is that members have no governor on their carts but guests do so I couldn’t speed up to avoid the problem. The members must also have governors on their carts so this can’t happen. This sad excuse for a member put my wife and I in danger as well as his young child with no seat belt and reckless driving. Spoke to the starter about it and he’s heard this before and was empathetic to the situation and said he’d report it.

Course was in bad shape, greens were terrible, half dead with sand stained green. Tee boxes all tore up. Not worth the cost to play.

Beautiful course with a great layout. Group in front was kind of slow. A few greens in current state of patches being repaired otherwise course is immaculate. Not a bad value for such a nice course.

Over Promised & Under Delivered - Thats their Motto

Course layout was fine but Greens were HORRIBLE & SLOW. Also they Charged $187 for the round but ignore to tell you that there's a $35 Valet Parking Fee. Completely NOT Worth the round.

Golf cart wasn’t going forward

Waited an hour and countless calls for a new golf cart since we could only drive backwards. After an hour they show up without a replacement golf cart and couldn’t fix it. 35 minutes pass bye and they bring us a new one. A supervisor was supposed to call me to give me a discount on a future round 😂 they didn’t do that and they didn’t let me re-do the front nine that we played backwards.

Great course, poor pace of play management.

Have played several times in Silver Fox and had never experienced such a dreadful round. Tee times and pairings need to be managed better. At one point during round, including our threesome, there were four groups on a par 3. Either space out the times more or don’t let 4/5 twosomes go out alone. Was very frustrating to wait 10 minutes to hit each shot, definitely not worth the money at that point.

One of the nicest golfing facilities in Miami

This is by far the nicest golfing facility in Miami. The courses are extremely well maintained. The greens are fast but extremely smooth and a very clean facility. The facility offers 4 18 hole courses and I can honestly say that the lowest grade course they have is still nicer than most courses in Miami. Definitely worth the money to play here I will definitely be back.

A Nice Course

It is a Nice Course. But get there early, as you have to shuttle from the self park lot, and it takes 10 minutes or so in your cart to get to the first tee. Also, they charge for parking. The buildings in the complex are beautiful and the staff is very professional.
