Default Saddlebrook Executive Course

Because golf course conditions can change pretty rapidly, from time-to-time I'll be removing/deleting older posts in hopes this helps ensure TOTV users of this forum are seeing "Current Course Conditions."

You would do well to include your review to GMS...this would be in lieu of saying management needs to...blah, blah, blah...they don't necessarily read these posts.

We played Saddlebrook on Friday - May 27, 2016. It is in deplorable condition. Ever green is mostly sand with patches of weedy grass - #2 is a temporary green. The tee boxes are also bad. This course was closed last year about this time for a "make over". I suggest it be closed again.

We played night golf at Saddlebrook with 54 of our neighbors. Couldn't see the conditions but had one heck of a good time.

Played it today. I like the course. I hit six different clubs over the nine holes. The greens are in pretty bad shape, but the rest of the course is fine.

I understand that it was closed for a long time to renovate it. I don't know what they did, but they didn't renovate any greens.

Played Saturday 7/30. The greens were marginal at best.
