WORLD WOODS
FLORIDA
We have been going to World Woods since about 2006 I think and for me it just doesn't get any better than a day up at World Woods. It;s about 1hr.20mins from the condo and we always make a day of it and play 36 holes on their 2 Championship courses. I usually drive up if Craig is over with us and we spend the day there also.
It is in the middle of nowhere yet people travel for miles just to play the courses. Golf Digest has Pine Barrens in 4th place for the whole of Florida and Rolling Oaks in 8th place.
How much do you think we paid to play 2 of the best courses in Florida ?
$49.00 !!!!
Yes forty nine dollars for 2 rounds incl buggies.
I got a special email a few days before and we mamaged to get our booking changed on the day to get this rate. At the height of the season (Jan - May ) it's $120 for 1 round.
That is the cheapest we have ever paid to play there.
2 years ago we play decided to play as 2 teams all seeded depending on your position in the points table.
Pairs in the morning and singles matches in the afternoon.
As usual both courses were in stunning condition and the whole day was just magic from start to finish. We got the first rain of the holiday that morning as we left and in the morning round got a few heavy showers that soaked us but we all dried out as we played. It was still 90 degrees in the rain.
