Anyway, all I can say is that if you’re having out of town visitors in town and want to take them golfing as a guest DO NOT take them to Tarpon Boil ! It’s an embarrassment !

The only positive I can say is that the fairway on the par 4 finishing hole (#9) was in extremely good shape .

The “report card” rates this course a D and I wholeheartedly agree . They note that an “Aggressive Maintenance Plan” is to take effect…. When ? Would be my question !!
More than likely what you’re seeing around the cups is where lazy people reach inside the cups with their “built for lazy people” ball retrievers and are damaging the holes.
