Saddlebrook - Palmer, Wesley-Chapel, Florida
The
par-70 Palmer Course at Saddlebrook plays much longer than it's
6,469 yards. With water on 17 of the 18 holes, players find themselves
thinking their way around this Arnold Palmer design. The par-five,
fourth hole is a perfect example with water on the right and out
of bounds on the left off the tee. The second shot doesn't get any
easier with trees lining both sides of the fairway. Finally, an
elevated and well-trapped green awaits your third shot as you attempt
to reach the green in regulation. Overall, you'll find the Palmer
Course to provide an enjoyable day of golf with rolling fairways
and receptive, undulating greens.
