Wait another year to play

Construction of roads and condos on Front nine. Difficult to find your way around and also to see the flags on the greens.

Fair play

Unlike many Florida courses, which seem to have fairways too tight for the typical golfer, The National has generous fairways and landing areas between the plentiful bunkers and water hazards. This makes it eminently playable, fun and FAIR.

This course is underrated

The course is more challenging than the rating and slope indicate. It is a course that depends full concentration. Frustration will lead to mistakes. And this course makes you pay for mistakes.

Challenging Greens

This course should be rated a lot higher than 123 slope off the black. But it is a classy, extremely well-kept track and an organized set-up. I will return again next Thursday.
