Really nice greens
The course was in excellent condition. The greens were running pretty quick but not crazy fast. Also, most greens are pretty flat so they are easy to read. Fairways were in great shape.
The practice area is crazy good. Multiple putting greens, multiple chipping and pitching areas.
Lots of tees to choose from.
We finished in under 3.5 hours.
Bobby Jones Ross Course
The course, which opened in early 2024, after going through a complete renovation, was in fairly good condition. The greens were smooth but slower than I am use to and the fairways were sparse. Traps were mostly raked but had some issues with the equipment leaving a wave of sand at the exit point with the water barrier fabric pulled up and exposed along the edge of the traps.
Great course…. A little open
I like this course a lot. The greens were great. This course is fairly open and easier to score well. I have 5 stars all around and 4 for course lay out because of it being fairly open
Practice area and driving range are top notch
Renovation in 2022
I never played this course before yesterday and was looking forward to a championship layout. The course was w little disappointing in that it probably was a championship layout in it’s day. By today’s standards it was a good test for the mid to high handicappers but too short for the youth and low handicap players to feel challenged. The greens were in good shape, the bunkers were in good condition except for a few spots when there was landscape fabric pulled up to the surface of the sand along the edge of the trap.
Nice Course
Great to see course has reopened. A bit pricey though.
Experience
It is like a Football field. Need more trees
anf far to expensive. It opened one year ago and not well maintained. The old bobby Jones was better and the price was okay
Would play more often but price is too high for a municipal course and relative to some other comparable courses in the area
Wide Open Spaces
For a Sarasota area golf course the recently renovated Bobby Jones Golf Course allows players to hit the ball all over God's Creation and still not lose a ball. The fairways are wide and there are relatively few water hazards compared to other courses in the area. The winter grass is dormant, so the ball rolls extraordinarily well. The greens have very subtle break and are in good condition. The bunkers have plenty of sand and play well. Of course the tee boxes show the wear and tear expected for a public course but overall the course is fun to play.
