The tooth

For 29$ not bad. Greens are just terrible. Rest of course decent shape. Pace of play good.

Signage is terrible and staff help to find carts terrible. “Just drive over there past the covered front entrance and the pro shop is there”. Nope.

Greens not up to standard

Beautiful day. Got paired up with a ranked 16ro. Fun to watch. Ranger was out multiple times to try to keep it moving.

Green we’re in very poor shape. Need rain? Greens fees not in line with conditions. Rest of course was in range of standard

the tooth course was a great time!

i had a lot of fun playing the OCN tooth course. i had an afternoon booking on OCN panther lake and i decided to book the tooth as a hot deal with a coupon. it was a great warm up for the big course and i would come back again if i came back to florida.

great time at OCN panther lake

i had a fun time at panther lake. this was my second time playing at this course and i was happy to get an amazing hot deal with a coupon to drop the price a considerable amount. the course was in nice shape overall, but the grass around some of the greens wasn't amazing. i heard there was a lack of rain this spring and many of the courses i played had the same issue. all in all it's a great course and i would come back again 100 percent.

I played these courses for the last 15 years and of course the price has gone up considerably but if you wait till after one, the price drops considerably and it’s worth the value very much though

Crooked Cat renovation

Crooked Cat is a wonderful Track but in average condition. It's my recommendation that Crooked Cat transitions to a naturalist golf course with a Single line targeted irrigation system that can substantially shrink the irrigation footprint of the golf course. By transitioning to a naturalist style golf course, Crooked Cat will save the City water while simultaneously allowing the maintenance staff to MANICURE a smaller portion of the golf course and make Crooked Cat more competitive with similar golf courses in the Orlando area.

Crooked Cat

I’m handicap 3.0. I like challenge myself at nice difficult courses. Played first time at Crooked Cat and love it !!.

Great facility, great course!

Wide open, links style. Rolling fairways, some elevation makes it unique for Florida.love the greens, they are pretty fast with nice slopes!!

Lots of bunkers with soft white sand.

Pace of play really slow!! Need Marshall !!

But course is Top Notch !! PGA level. Cant wait to play it again. Locals told me to try Panthers Lake, the second course at Orange County National and expect even better more manicured course!!

Way too slow

I like the OCN courses a lot, but the co dictions this time were average and the pace of play was atrocious. On the greens were different patches of grass that would throw putts offline, and all the greens were pockmarked with unrepaired pitch marks. Maybe worse, were the collars. They had small, uneven tufts of unknown grass that would catch your putter in the backswing.

Finally, and most importantly, was the pacing. It took us 5.5 hours. There are rounds on tour played faster. We don’t see a martial all day. There would be times when we finished a hole and could see 3 groups stacked up on the next hole. Waiting for every shot makes the game suck. They need to have more control. Send a martial out and make a group skip a hole or catch up.

Great course

Panther Lake was is in excellent condition for this time of year. A bit expensive but if you can get a hot deal it's worth the money.
