Course Overview

Bent Pine Golf Club features a Joe Lee-designed championship course playing 7,001 yards with a rating of 73.5 and slope of 136. Lee's traditional Florida design emphasizes strategic shot-making and course management over raw power. Set within the Bent Pine community of estate homes, the course offers a classic private-club experience with conditioning and service to match.

Fairway Conditions

The Joe Lee design features well-maintained Bermuda fairways with traditional Florida shaping. The 7,001-yard layout provides a solid championship test without being overly punishing. Conditioning is first-rate with excellent drainage and well-bunkered greens. A classic Florida private club experience.

Why I Love This Course

â Alex Haigh

"Bent Pine is one of those clubs that quietly does everything right. Joe Lee designed a course that rewards smart play — at 7,001 yards it's plenty long enough to demand your attention, but it doesn't beat you up with gimmicks or unfair design. The traditional layout means you're playing real golf, the kind where your pre-shot routine and your ability to manage a course matter more than how far you hit it. I have a deep respect for clubs like Bent Pine — they understand that golf doesn't need to be flashy to be excellent."
