I know magazine reviews only rave about courses that cost a small non-vital organ to play. I hope I'm writing for more 'regular people' and the places they might play. Thanks again for the feedback, glad you enjoy the format. I'll spin up a new thread for the upcoming league season. Rumor has it we'll get to see a couple of new tracks again this year. The past seasons are in 'Florida League Course Reviews'.

00sportsman 2,376 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 If you played in either a Tampa Tour or Todd Wright Tour event, then Yes. The Tampa Tour is a local summer league for individual stroke play events. Todd Wright Tour events are team multi-format events held throughout the year. The only time I've been able to play with RevKev was around last Christmas along with Fozcycle and now I can't recall our fourth.The way the fourth played that day(so I’m told anyway), I’m glad you can’t remember who it was.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 3 Quote I always try to remember that I'm not good enough to get mad!

revkev 22,880 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Would you mind if I did a course review on here? I played Dunedin Golf Club a couple of weeks ago and thought it might be worth a review. 4 Quote Ping G410 - turned down to11.25 degrees, neutral setting - Fujikura Motore X R flex Ping G410 5-9 wood Wilson D7 forged 6-GW - Mamiya recoil 460 R flex SCOR 52,60 EVNRoll ER 5 Titleist Pro VIx optic yellow with revkev stamped on them Currently testing Edison wedges to replace SCORS that are wearing out.

GregB135 982 Posted March 9 Author Share Posted March 9 Update to the previous review on Bloomingdale. Played again 8 March 2021. General course conditions have improved somewhat. Still some rough/worn tee areas. A couple of the greens either needed or were getting some repair. The greens behaved a little strange. They looked like they had recently been top dressed, but they were cut very short, and had apparently been rolled recently. Green speeds were a bit inconsistent, but leaned toward very fast, and they weren't holding anything that didn't land steep with a LOT of spin (1/2 wedges rolling out 30 feet kind of stuff). Through the late winter/spring months, the course has been more busy and crowded than I have ever seen it. And it doesn't seem like the pro shop keeps tabs on the tee sheet very well. I looked at tee time availability online and booked the second of a string of "empty" tee times. At check in (literally minutes later) I'm pointed toward the group I'm behind, and 10 minutes before my tee time there are 4 foursomes queued up at the first tee with another in the fairway. They were playing some kind of a scramble or 4:25 could have been much longer. Don't expect an expedient pace of play. Last note, they have begun some kind of major renovation/reconstruction on the practice areas. The putting green was basically cut in 1/2 and they were removing a lot of turf around the short game green. If these changes significantly alter the quality of their practice area, I might have to find a new course to call home. 1 Quote Driver: PXG 211 Project X Evenflow CB, 50g 5.5 Fariway: PXG 211, 3-Wood Project X Evenflow CB, 60g 5.5 Hybrid: PXG 211, 3H Project X Evenflow H, 80g, 5.5 Irons: T300 4-5, T200 6-PW Nippon 880 Pro R Wedges: CBX2 50*, 54*, 58*, TT Dynamic Gold Wedge Flex Putter: Stroke Lab Rossie Link to post Share on other sites

As to Bloomingdale: As an improvement, they ought to put up a big net on the right side of the practice area. When I was coming around the corner on 18, My eyes were drawn to the practice area in the hope of avoiding someone's errant shot. 1 Quote Left Hand orientation G410 SFT driver Cobra King F-9 5 wood 410 Hybrids 22*, 26* Cobra Speed Zone 6-GP/Recoil ESX 460 F3 Shafts SM7 54* Wedge Glide 3.0 60* Wedge O Works putter NX9-HD - 4 Wheel - too many shoes to list and so many to buy And BAG Boy Golf Balls: Snell MTB-X 2020 Official Tester Beginning Driver Speed - 78 2019 Official Tester 410 Driver 2018 Official Tester C300 Link to post Share on other sites
GregB135 982 Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Bloomingdale just started a MAJOR renovation to the practice area.Building an all new putting green (about 2/3 size of the old one), rebuilding the whole short game green, and expanding the full swing range hitting area.
