West Palm Beach

[dam276]

Played Palm Beach National 2 years ago. Didn't enjoy it. The first few holes had a bad smell to it.

Madison Green.... played there about 4 years ago and didn't enjoy the course. I remember alot of water coming into play.

I want to try a new course.

 

Other courses I have played in the area are Boynton Beach, Polo Trace and Delray Beach GC. I don't know why but I like Delray Beach GC.

 

Any other suggestions?

I drove an hour to play Atlantis golf club, nice course but wouldn't drive that far to play it again. Atlantic National and Park Ridge are on the west side of lantana blvd. and I'd drive to play those two again, especially park ridge.

 

I will be staying near Lake Worth Golf Course and West Palm Beach CC.

Anyone have an in at Trump International?

 

Got a spare $500k laying around?

 

If you're queasy over smell i would avoid Park Ridge. I don't know what you caught at PBN - maybe some algae in the water after a storm or something. If you think Delray is better than Madison Green I can't help you.

Anything is possible.

I like some of the older run down courses made by great architects versus some of the more modern over manufactured layouts. Conditions don't compare, I know that they aren't great at Delray. I am looking to play the best course I can next week and budget isn't a factor. Time and convenience is.

 

Polo Trace?

Leaning toward Banyan Cay at the moment.

 

Sorry... just trying to keep busy during the Blizzard in NJ :)

I'm not up on the geography, but Bear Lakes is a nice test, and you can probably get on sort of easily. I know they had something on the South Florida PGA pass (although that may be for summer.) Play the lakes course if that is an option. And hope the wind isn't blowing....yeah right...

Atlantis is ok park ridge is a great track if it has not rained in awhile. Palm beach par 3 was top 8 par 3s in the world by one of the golf magazines.

Is the Palm Beach Golf Center worth checking out while down there?

It's very similar to a big box store like Golfsmith or Golf Galaxy. I wouldn't make a special trip to go there.

F*** United Airlines

My trip is now cancelled.

Maybe next year....

Delray Beach GC is my home course and it is a nice layout. It is also a Donald Ross course which might explain why you like it.

Agree on Delray Beach--if one is a fan of old Ross courses, this one is an enjoyable play. Get to use a lot of different options around the greens

I'm got offers to Play Eastpointe and Iron Road later in March. I see feedback on Eastpointe further up this thread. Anything one got feedback on Iron Road. Reviews look very good

You must mean Ironhorse.

Nice track, good value.

A bit soggy if played after it rains.

 

Only drwaback is if the wind is blowing from the South, you get to enjoy the aroma from the next door dump.

Ironorse is a fun Arthur Hills track. Jmtbkr is right about the dump smell. There are a few quirky holes, but overall a solid track. I prefer eastpoint if I had to choose only one to play.

[Trapperchamonix]

Yes I did mean IronHourse. I'll pack aftershave in my bag.
