Black Bear, Eustis, Florida
 P.B.
Dye's layout features dramatic fairway elevations, sandy waste bunkers,
undulating greens, and a unique 19th-hole shootout area! Dye's trademark
touches create a combination of truly unique and unforgettable holes.
Wide open off the tee, the course places a premium on the golfer's
short game. In fact, water comes into play on only two holes: #11
and #18. There is a massive practice facility with double-ended
driving range and fantastic short game area. A great value, Black
Bear is located in Eustis, 40 minutes northeast of Orlando.

Wish I could play this course more. Some holes remind you of
Scotland, some remind you of the Midwest. Worth the drive. |

Great Course, good conditions can be really tough on a windy
day. Well worth the drive, Not alot of play |

A great course, swing hard. wide open--tough, elevated greens
make it ugly if youre not hitting it splendidly |
