We loved the course, couldn't afford regular tee time rates, but booked with golf now and everything was great.

Baypoint Review

Great layout, my only issue was pace of play. They had a young group, 6 golfers, teed off in 2 groups but shortly after joined up as 6some!!! I think the starter knew they were going to join up, shame on him for letting this happen! We complained to the marshal, he split them up but said they will likely join up again which they did, question is why did the marshal not follow them! What is the point of having a marshal!! They ruined the pace for our group and all that followed, hard to understand a course of thei calibre allowing this to happen on a very busy day.

RT JONES as Merciless Architect...

Going inot the gated community...seeing the main lot full set some expectations, then the overflow needed work...and that was a harbinger of my game...lol

Super staff...small bag of range balls...great orientation by starter...then 1 Tee sets the tone of what is to come...the landing area is over water...and that too set the theme...water would be in the most interesting places...the first part 3 is all carry to the green...but the hole that will always be in memory...was the one over all marsh grass to a narrow llanding area needing a carry of 175 yds...only then to be confronted with a second shot, 90 degrees to the left to then execute another 175+ shot with virtually litte usable landing area...as the round progresed, RTJ clearly liked hiding the water hazards...over the course of the round, I hit what would be a layout shot, only to learn I contributed to the water gremlins...

In all seriousness now, the course would challenge any scratch golfer if they dont take the following seriously...look at the layout on the score card, or if you have a yardage app..use it...it will save your tally of lost balls...I realized this neat trick about on the 10 hole...better late than never...

Even after the rains and related tornado that struck PCB area, the course was draining perfectly with the fairways giving good rolls, the greens lightning fast(putt about 1/4-1/3 of the way to the cup if you want to lag properly...and yes, the RTJ greens are full of large and small undulations...with one hold below the front lip with half the flag visible...LOL

If one is unable to consistently control the ball, one will easily go throught a dozen balls as the homes along the course are private property(and do be aware, the course states clearly the golferis responsible for any and all damages to property, cars, people etc.)

The course will have you laughing in stictches, or screaming at the layout and what the Merciless Architect has done to your usual game...

I will be back to try again...my sides hurt so much form laughing at myself and what the course did...you just got to play this at least once...and if so, you'll be hooked...enjoy

Great tee box selections for all skill levels.

Great pace. Fun greens. Stay away from the water. Hit putts a little firm.

Great Course

It's such a great course for all levels of golfers, however the fact that there were three fivesomes ahead of me was really frustrating.

On a normal day slow play is expected but when there are some many per group it makes for long tedious wait times.

Great deal - had a blast

Bartender could have moved a little faster getting our drinks ready before tee off but otherwise it was a perfect round.

T-time restrictions

Being a single player I showed up early and see if they would pair me up with other groups. And I quote” since I reserved my t-time on GolfNow she didn’t think they would let me play earlier then my reserved T-time”.

Despite the fact that I watched lot of 3-some T-off. You would think they would be more flexible?

Not for the faint of heart

First time player. Challenging layout but would definitely play better if I could have known where all the water and sand traps are. GPS on the golf carts would help A LOT! I did use a golf GPS app on my phone. Only saw the beverage cart once. Claimed they were having wi-fi issues on their electronic payment devices. I used cash and had zero problem. We were the last ones off the course and no one was available at either the pro shop, or the snack bar. Only the guys at the cart barn. Ty (I think that was his name) gave me a ride back to my resort. If not, I would have had to walk back with my clubs.

Great layout but very slow greens and hard mats on the range. If you are going to use mats, please use good ones that absorb that cushion the shots.

Decent track - good value, challenging enough for casual golfer, from the tips good challenge for low handicappers too. Would return if we vacation here in future.
