Needs water
Fairways need water. They are thin and sparse.
Rough is in bad shape. Greens were good.
Fair to good condition at the Old Legendary Course
For the most part the greens, bunkers and most fairways were in good shape. The budget for amenities appears to me as a lower priority. The gas carts are adequate only. But I still enjoyed the challenge and the location of this iconic course.
Thursday noon start
Wide open, not much trouble. Greens very good.. Fairways fair, lots of different vegetation. 2 1/2 hours for front, same on back.
Not a great value for the money
Course layout is nice and greens rolled great. Overall conditions of the course were pretty rough (maybe drought related). Cart paths are very rough
$120 for a city/ Municipal course??? terrible for city and county folks who count on municipal courses to be somewhat affordable....plus they removed all the character of the original design.... fix the cart paths w the money you overcharge
Not much to it but very nice condition
To call it the Donald Ross course is deceiving, because it’s not very interesting nor difficult. But the fairways and greens were very well maintained. Greens were not super fast but rolled true. We had no one in front of us and played 9 in less than 90 minutes. Cart paths and surrounding areas were pretty rough. But at the twilight rate I thought it was a pretty good deal for this time of the year.
Nice course.
Course is fully grasses tee to green and it's wide open. Only issue is the high price, but it's snowbird season.
Good course
Overall a good public course. Need to complete pro shop and could use more water/bathroom stations.
Best Muni - Bobby Jones
Hands-down, the best course in the area and playing in prime conditions! Wonderful staff, and amenities and a great practice facility! I really couldn’t ask for more…
Never play here again
I live in city of sarasota so BJ is a local muni course. But they price it way too high. Even with my 40% discount, it's cheaper to play other courses. The city spent millions of dollars to change the course, reducing it from 36 to 18 holes. Greens were uneven and not true. Cart paths were dirt and full of potholes. No marshall present to speed up group in front of us. They keep driving all over the place, back and forth, looking for balls or not knowing where to go. City spend too much money and made it worse. I will NEVER play there again.
First and Last Time playing it.
A public course, where they take no pride in maintenance. From the dirty unmaintained carts, to the poorly maintained course. Several greens needed repair. So sad it's named after Bobby Jones.
Not worth the price.
