Silver Dollar Golf & Gun Club, Tampa, FL

This is the course we started to golf in January but got rained out (stuck in the men's room). I added the "gun" to the name this time because we really could hear the gunshots today! Today was one of the few 5 1/2 hour rounds I have ever done. It is a community in Florida so we followed an older foursome that really held up the entire course. Fortunately, everyone behind us saw what was happening. There are 3 nine holes - the Bobcat, Panther & Gator. We played the Gator & the Panther. The course was pretty flat but there was a lot of water holes that kept it interesting. The fairways were in good condition especially considering the time of year and the greens were OK too, although pretty tough because there were a lot of odd pin placements. Women have a huge advantage here cause our tee boxes were much closer. There was a bathroom on the Gator but I didn't see one on the Panther. The cart girl was around frequently and had hot dogs on her cart! I wouldn't mind playing here again cause I par'd almost every par 3 but it's not a must if I come to Tampa again.
