Daytona Beach Golf Club (North course)

3-PLUS: Good course - several memorable features; worthy of 3½ stars.

Est. 1946

Daytona Beach Golf Club (North course): Not only boasting (by some margin) the area's first golf courses, Daytona Beach's South course was laid out by one of the most significant designers in the history of the game, Donald J. Ross. Run as a municipal facility, both the North and South courses are not overly long by today's standards, but quite able to fully test and challenge your game.

After its revamp in the late 1990s, the North course is a fraction longer and arguably the better of the two courses. The North's front-nine is played through an attractively tree-lined setting of palms, pines and oaks, with a good mix of straightaway and doglegging holes, some quite tight, others more forgiving.

On the back-nine the environment is considerably more open (similar to the entirety of the South course). The revamped bunkering around the nicely elevated greens has created a much stronger look and greater challenge to the par-3s and approaches into several other holes.

With several shortish par-4s and par-5s in play, big-hitters may prosper here, provided they can handle the tighter opening holes, and stay out of several ponds that come into play.

Water is at its most threatening at the par-3s and the tightly doglegging par-4 5th and 15th holes. The short par-5 17th is played to an island green, surrounded by Smitty's Pond. Daytona Beach Golf Club is located just a mile or so from the centre of Daytona Beach.
