The Approach Shot

South Florida

The Park West Palm

Modern municipal / sandy strategic

The Park is the course that makes South Florida interesting to serious golf people again. It has the rare combination of public access, architectural credibility, and actual local energy. The lighted short course, practice center, and junior/caddie programming also make it feel like a real golf community rather than another guarded resort gate. It is not the biggest flex in the region. It may be the best sign that the region is not just selling sun and steak.
