The Trophy Club of Apalachee

The conditions at Trophy Club of Apalachee seem to vary considerably. I am a big fan of bent grass greens, but the greens at this course are not being properly maintained. This is an average layout and a few holes need some attention for the course to be reasonably playable. This is most true of hole number 8 where a good middle of the fairway tee shot will frequently tumble into a water hazard. The number 8 green is now basically bare and holding the green can be nearly impossible depending on pin position. Forget making a put of any length.

The staff does not manage the pace of play.

The practice facilities are better than average for a public course.

I will continue to play at this course, but only as a back-up and when the price is low.

I can't wait to come back when its not so rainy. I must say even with all the rain the course was in great condition. Grounds crew should be commended. This course is a keeper!

I would like to play at faster pace. It seems the member rule the pace of play. That is a concern; don't go looking for balls when I'm playing behind you.

The course is always maintained and stays in good shape. It is much more difficult from the back tees! I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

Greens were little slow probably due to all the rain we were getting, I will try again on a dry day.

I found this course pretty challenging due to the tight fairways. There were a couple of longer par 5's as well. It is a shot-maker's course with high risk-reward, with several greens that you don't dare go long. I wasn't in love with the layout, but it IS a nice course.

That day was rainy & foggy. The field was wet and a little slippery.The whole course was cart-path only.Of course took more play time. After finishing the fifth hole, The Marshall came to to us and complained us playing slow. It was rude asking us skiing playing that hole. That was one of the worst experience ln my golf career.

Super staff. Pace of play was good for a weekend. Very well maintained course. Fairways greens traps were all very nicely taken care of.

Played on a Saturday and it was packed. The round took 5.5 hours. Other than that it was a great experience.

Nice course played in spotty weather rained off and on. Course is in good shape. The greens have almost fully recovered from a recent aeration. They are rolling nice.

The Trophy Club of Apalachee generally has good quality greens and is well maintained. The greens are not in good condition and its seems likely that they will lose one or more of the greens this year. The course is very hard (ground) in some locations and it seems that some work is going into longer term improvements and no into maintaining day-to-day play condition. Still worth playing at the right price (<$40.00), but not on par with some recent seasons.

Greens are in excellent shape. A number of challenging par 4s and par 3s. A variety of features. Some tee boxes in need of attention and erosion and thin areas in places. Very undulating in some places. Greens are fair and not excessively tricked up - huge ridges, multi-levels and strange shapes. Par 3s from gold are longer than average. At least 2 of the par 5s are accessible in 2.

The course isn't particularly long, but it is well bunkered and puts a premium on accuracy. The greens had been aerated earlier in the week, but closed in nicely and rolled well. In fact I had my best putting round ever there. Pace of play was impressive - 3 hours 15 minutes on a Saturday morning. I plan to return.

Front 9 tough and eases off to a little more friendly on the back 9. Challenging but satisfying at the same time.

Wanted to take the groom to play on his wedding day. Made the right choice by coming here but got backed up on the front and almost didn't make the wedding in time.

The course played long, but fair. The staff was excellent. One of our foursome was late and the staff promptly brought him to the hole we were playing. The marshall went back four holes to retrive a lost pitching wedge for us. Playing this track was a positive experience.

I enjoy the course. It is a par 71 with 5 par 3s. I have played most of the course in the area and Trophy Club is adequately maintained. This time of the year it is green and the putting surfaces are smooth and fast. Sometimes it gets a lot of traffic and the casual players don't fix their ball marks. Certainly not the best layout but a very good value.

After all the rain we had the course is in good condition. Greens were rolling smooth and fairly quick. Fairways in good condition. Pace of play was good but can often become very slow from mid afternoon on. All in all good course to play.

When we arrived the members were about to have a tournament so the let us start on the back nine. Saved a lot of time I would recommend

While the greens were in excellent condition and rolled nicely they were as hard as rock. When hitting a wedge onto the green the first bounce was 4-5 feet in the air and it was almost impossible to get anything to hold. This was really the only negative but it was major and made for an poor experience at this time.
