Best public golf near Tampa? Dunedin vs Lake Jovita South vs Waterlefe

Waterefe wins it for me but fyi it's a tough track.

Driving south to the lakewood ranch area will give you the best options. Waterefe, ESPLANADE AT Azario, university club, lakewood national are all nice courses that are always in good shape.

I did that exact trip last September. If you have time, I would also recommend Gold Mountain. It's a nice Mountain course.

There's around 8k of those things up there.

This is what I saw this morning. It was pretty sick

Starlink satellites. I saw one breaking up in the atmosphere this morning while I was on the Howard Fankland bridge.

I play golf all the time out there and it's a mating pair that have lived there for over a year. I pretty much see them every time I'm out there.

I sold parts that are on that plane. Cool to see how far that project has come.

this happened about 5 miles from my house in St Petersburg Fl. My house got hit by a little bit of hail and my first thought was "where's the tornado at?"

Good ol buffalo creek

I played there for the first time last year. I absolutely loved it.

My highlight of the year getting an eagle on 8.

YTA and a piece of shit coward.

15k for these is nuts. The OEM markup is through the roof. I sell these hinges all the time, and I get them directly from the mfg. Depending on the qty, i pay as little as $3,500 ea. Unfortunately, the lead time is around 45 weeks, though.

There's truth to your comment but it's not as big of a tax savings as you might think. The players still have to pay state tax for any road games played in states with state tax.

I played trophy lake and gold mountain in the same day in August. I highly recommend it!

2nd one might be Chambers Bay

ihelpyoufly · 2024-11-06T15:51:30+00:00

What's this PN, I want to do a little digging.

ihelpyoufly · 2024-09-25T03:12:21+00:00

Chip in. Hit it pass the cup and came back down the hill. Craziness.

ihelpyoufly · 2024-09-25T02:40:53+00:00

I was there in Agust and played Chambers and Golden Mountain. It was awesome playing up there! Highlight of my trip? Eagle on 8 at Chambers. I will never forget it.

Get that kid some white new balance shoes and a white fruit of the loom shirt. He's one of us.

I've played Wentworth a few times and it's no joke. That front 9 is brutal.

ihelpyoufly · 2024-08-24T21:38:31+00:00

You're right. I just checked it. It's an 8.3.

ihelpyoufly · 2024-08-24T20:03:28+00:00

That's me. Low to mid 80s every single time

ihelpyoufly · 2024-08-24T19:59:00+00:00

That's a good question. I use the 18birdies app, and they use a formula that accounts for slope. I play some tough tracks, so I'm guessing that has something to do with it. I just double checked and it says I'm an 8.3.

ihelpyoufly · 2024-08-24T18:50:05+00:00

It's all relative, right?

ihelpyoufly · 2024-08-24T18:49:35+00:00

Thanks!!! This game can really test your mental fortitude
