Watson and Palmer courses were in nearly immaculate shape! The courses suffered some storms a few days before my playing, however besides a few waste bunkers that were more mud then sand, the courses played fantastic! Palmer has a little water and some forced carry tee shots.

WORST GOLF EXPERIENCE EVER!!
Played the Palmer course on Nov 22nd, and it took us nearly 3 hours on the front 9.
Went to the pro shop after the front 9 to see if they can do anything about the pace of play, and the response I got was: “ I mean you can hit the range if you want.

Avery was amazing, she kept my buddy calm when he lost his keys. Navigating the flow of the carts and golf bags…keeping her cool and being completely professional about it all. Thank you very much!!!

Other courses in the same trip.
Must play
Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge - Championship Course
Bay Hill is the Orlando headline because it has actual tournament gravity.
Strong play
Orange County National - Panther Lake
Panther Lake is one of the smartest Orlando anchors because it is good, accessible, and paired with Crooked Cat.
Strong play
Orange County National - Crooked Cat
Crooked Cat is the other half of why OCN matters.
Strong play
ChampionsGate - International Course
International is useful and sometimes very good for the right group.
Strong play
ChampionsGate - National Course
National is the calmer resort companion.
Strong play
Reunion - Palmer Course
The Palmer course is the fun Reunion round.
Strong play
Reunion - Nicklaus Course
Nicklaus is the toughest Reunion course and should be sequenced accordingly.
Strong play
Shingle Creek Golf Club
Shingle Creek is the clean convenience play.
Strong play
Grand Cypress - New Course
The New Course is Orlando's best "wait, this is actually interesting" round.
Strong play
Grand Cypress - North/South/East
The original 27 holes are useful because they make Grand Cypress a real golf base rather than a one-course novelty.
Strong play
Disney's Magnolia / Palm
Disney golf is competent, convenient, and not the reason to fly to Orlando.
Strong play
Mission Inn - El Campeon
El Campeon is the sleeper for people who think Orlando has no old golf character.
