Foxfire Golf Club - Pine/Palm Course

7200 Proctor Rd
Sarasota, FL 34241
Phone: (941)921-7757Fax: (941)923-8936

This club has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. The Oak Course and the Pine Course have similar designs. The fairways are tree lined and narrow, and the greens are small and medium speed. The Palm Course has larger greens and more open fairways than the other courses. Water hazards (lakes, creeks, streams, and canals) come into play on all three courses. The most difficult hole is #1 on the Oak Course, a 363-yard, par 4, requiring at least a 250-yard tee shot to see the green, then an approach shot to a small green that is well bunkered. During the off-season, a junior discount is available after noon.

Pebble Creek Country Club
"Not exactly what you'd expect in Aggieland"
Nice layout. Much of central Texas doesn't have the same topography that an Austin or San Antonio can provide, but there were plenty of trees and some slight uphill/downhill despite a generally flat piece of ground. We happened to play on a day when the weather was poor. The wet conditions had us as the only players on the course. The price seemed at little steep as the lone players - $65.00 which included cart, but no range balls. The carts did have plex glass wind shields which was nice for the late fall and early winter. The course was over seeded, which made the fairways and greens very nice. The greens rolled true. There is a lot of water in play over the entire golf course. the design on several of the holes didn't seem like it fit a traditional risk/reward philosophy. For example on #1 and #10 (both par 5's), hitting a second shot over the water would still leave you 40 or 50 yards from the green, where as a 6-8iron lay-up would still leave a wedge. (Maybe Michelle or Tiger could get there?) Numbers #9 and #18 seemed to be the same type example. Water creeps out across the fairway on number 9 - driver is a risky play, but anything less and you've got a 200 yard-uphill approach or so. (I will say lack of roll in wet conditions would have just meant a lesser club off the tee because carrying the water with a driver wasn't an option) Much the same applies to number 18, although the approach was a few yards less. A lot of sand and a lot of water with some skinny necks in the dog legs on some holes is the reader's digest version. Shop staff was nice. Grill was available and had good selection.

Andover Golf & Country Club
"One of the Best"
Andover is certainly one the best course in the region. It is very challenging as well as one of the most beautiful courses around. The greens at peak season are like glass, the roughs will chew you up and cost additional strokes and the narrow fairways boarded by homes will make you shiver. Your score is determined how well you can over come the fear of taking a full swing or whimp out just to keep it in play. Not being an extra long course makes you contemplate the great shots instead of the smart ones. When you make a mistake take the bogey and go on to the next hole.

"Lots of fun."
A great course that gives you alot of different looks. Short (almost drivable) par fours and long par 4 into the prevailing winds. A couple of reachable par 5s (for the long hitters). I enjoy playing it everytime I am over there.
