Blue Monster

Love Trump National, have played all 4 courses on this property now! But very disappointed in value for what you get on the Blue Monster! I think the other courses at Trump National are a great value, but I probably not play this course again for the price, $800 before 2pm, and $500 after 2pm, course was nice but not worth the money, I only paid this price because I wanted to have played all 4. Golden Palm, Red Tiger, Silver Fox all worth the price, but unfortunately not for Blue Monster, you get just as good of an experience if you choose to play the one of the other courses

Great but slow

Course layout was very good, not quite as good condition as the blue but very good. Pace of play got pretty slow at the end but acceptable. Greens were quick and true. Some tees were a little sketchy but nothing awful.

Good course and challenging

We went during a tournament event the golf assistants were a little chaotic but otherwise pretty smooth process of getting clubs - hitting practice facilities - and to a round of golf. Pace of play could have been better (wish the 4some group who would hit 3 balls per shot in front of us - would have been humble to play best ball but whatever)

Overcrowded

The round took about four hours but the pace of play was choppy. A lot of hurry up and wait.

The red

Fun course, no to long but in good shape. If you can't hit it straight you better bring extra ammo. Lots of H2O in play

Very Disappointing

Was totally looking forward to playing this club for first time. It was an awful experience. From checking in to confusion around no carts available to delayed tee time, carts would stop you with no direction as to which way to go. We finally left a couple holes early and left our cart because it got locked. The staff was very friendly and lunch was fine. This place needs a brand new process.

Good course, not great

Clubhouse was very nice, and staff was great. A little annoying that you have to valet park and they charge $32 for it, on top of the steep price already paying to play. The course layout was fun, but a little quirky with a few holes, and relatively short...even from their back tees. Played it in 4 hours, so that was nice.

Greens were soft and rolled pretty well...not super fast, but not slow. Fairways were in decent shape, but not great or what I would expect for the price tag. Carts were dated, which was surprising for a Trump course and the money paid to play. Driving range was adequate, but nothing special. Overall, not worth the $295 price tag...probably worth it at $150-175 if you can find a deal.

Red Tiger

I decided to play Red Tiger at Doral because the design is rather unique. There are six Par 5s, six Par 4s, and six Par 3s. Gil Hanse did a great job setting up a course that's high on fun. Don't let the 6400y number from the tips trick you into thinking it's a short course. That's simply the result of the 6/6/6 setup. It was definitely worth the price I paid, but Doral isn't a must-repeat because everything has extra charges and everyone is looking for tips. The valet alone is $32.
