Extremely well kept, very challenging, somewhat unreasonable ask around the greens with many chips being very hard to simply put on the green. Overall, it’s one of those great courses that’s super fun to see, but doesn’t reel you back in like some others

How we rank
This ranking uses published scorecard data from each course’s longest men’s tees, the same tee set for every course. Only 18-hole courses with a yardage for every hole, a total that matches the hole-by-hole sum, and a par between 54 and 80 are included. Courses whose scorecard duplicates another course’s are left out until the data is fixed. Courses are ordered by total yardage, then slope rating, then Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Bradenton, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
