David Woodring says:
I had the pleasure of playing the TPC the day they closed it
for the Honda Classic. We were one of the last groups to go
off. If you ever wanted to feel like a pro, play this course
when it's set up, with cars in ponds and the bleacher and tents
and everything in place. We had a great time and this course
was in perfect and I mean perfect condition, not a blade of
grass out of place. Granted the surrounding area has alot to
be desired (view wise) but this is a great test regardless of
how flat it is. It's worth the trip. |
Dennis Thieroff SAYS...
My group played nine courses in the area in 2003. We will be
replaying three courses in 2004 and the TPC @ Heron Bay is one
of them. It is a most challenging layout and was in great shape.
The clubhouse is equally impressive and is worth spending a
few minutes touring. A+! |
