Seagate Country Club

⛳️ Course Review: An Unreal day at The Seagate Golf Club 🏌️‍♂️

The Seagate Golf Club offers a golfing experience like no other. From the moment you step onto the course, you’re greeted with pristine conditions like something out of a magazine this course’s grounds crew must work 24/7 to keep this place in such great shape. The recent multi-million dollar renovation is evident in every aspect, especially the architect’s masterful use of bunkers.

I was a little confused stepping up to the first tee box and seeing the course was only 6,700 yards but man I felt every bit of it! This course packs a punch and presents one of the most challenging rounds I’ve encountered. Every shot demands precision, with some of the largest fairway bunkers I’ve ever seen. (picture 9) Each tee shot really challenges you with decisions. Do I try to go over the bunker? Play out to the side of it? Maybe lay up short of it? It had me truly baffled on which clubs to take off the tee and I loved it!��Let’s talk about the greens. After the second hole, I told my playing partner I needed a caddie to know where to hit the ball on these greens. The amount of slope on the greens was staggering. (check out the last video to see for yourself) The greens were very firm but they were not extremely fast. This along with the amount of crazy sloping greens had my brain in fits. I found myself hitting what I thought was a great putt only to roll down a slope 50 feet away from the cup and at one point I hit a poor iron shot long of the pin. Just to find out there is a giganitic backstop that brought the ball back to 3 feet. These greens were incredibly fun to try and figure out.�
There was a fair amount of water on the course and I liked that they had 6 tee boxes to choose from. The course had a well-taken-care-of driving range, a large putting green, and a very nice short game practice facility. This is a place you can really hone in your golf skills and improve quickly.

The staff at The Seagate Golf Club really blew me away with their exceptional hospitality. A special shoutout goes to the starter, Ron. He was so friendly and helped us throughout our time at the club. Did I mention the food yet? You’ve gotta get a burger from the 19th hole on the turn! A true game-changer!

Overall, my experience at The Seagate Golf Club was nothing short of exceptional. I’ve never played a course that made me stop and think the way this place did. The staff truly were great and I would highly recommend the course to anyone in the Delray Beach area. You need to see this plavce in person.

Once a private club called the Hamlet has now been acquired by the Seagate Hotel and bears its name. They have made some improvements on the course and is now a semi-private club. The layout is characterized by multiple fairway bunkers. The Par 3s
are challenging holes each with a different look. Still I think the green fees are a little overpriced for the overall golfing experience here.
