I was in Orlando for a conference this past week, but managed to sneak away one morning to play this beauty of a nine holer. Unfortunately my phone battery was running low (needed to save it to hail an uber back to the convention center), but The Fried Egg did a nice profile. www.friedegg.co/golf-courses/winter-park-golf-course-reviewI wish there were more courses out there like this. I managed to walk its 2,500 yards in less than 90 minutes. At no point did I feel like my golf experience was diminished by the shortness of the course. I feel like if every municipal course were able to follow this model, the game would be thriving.

I'm doing a fictional version of this using templates. Love the story behind this course. 👍

Shameless plug for my favorite golf content guys, no laying up did a few podcasts on this course and also a video for it. Great work they did to restore this course it seems. Wish I could play it and I will if I am ever in the area.

If any of you knuckleheads are in Orlando and play this course let me know. Typical Saturday morning during marathon training- a loop or two around winter park and meet the boys at 8a for a quick round of golf at WP9. then top it off for breakfast at The Briar Patch.
