INVERRARY COUNTRY CLUB (954 -733-7550)
West Course
Florida Golf Course Review 11/13/04
General information
Inverrary Country Club in Lauderhill provides 36 holes of high quality, wonderfully conditioned championship golf,
on Robert Trent Jones Sr. layouts that are similar in topography and design. The legendary East Course has
been host to 15 PGA and LPGA Championships - with tournament conditions everyday! The West Course is a
fine complement. Both courses are classic tree-lined layouts, with slightly raised and well bunkered green
complexes featuring quick, true rolling and mildly undulating putting surfaces. The fairways are generous, but
sand traps and trees make choice of landing areas important. Water comes into play on quite a few holes with canals that line the fairways, although there are few forced carries.
On property is a full service pro shop - with lockers and showers for members, plus a restaurant/lounge that
features beverages, snacks and hot and cold sandwiches. There is a grass/mat range, a huge putting green,
plus a short game area with practice bunker. On course golfers will find color coded pin placements, plus
yardage blocks on the fairways at 100, 150 and 200 yards - and cart paths are also marked. Some sprinkler
heads are also measured to the center of the green. Cart covers are standard on all carts, protecting clubs during inclement weather.
EAST COURSE
The images in this review are of the West Course, which features water in play on 8 holes, with 91 sand bunkers
situated along the fairways or greenside. Four sets of tees on the West provide golfers with the opportunity to
choose from distance/slopes measuring 6675/132, 6318/124, 6002/122 for men and 130 for women, and 5403
yards with a 122 slope for women from the forward tees. The West Course, though sloped higher because of
tighter landing areas, more bunkers, plus some mounding along the fairways and greenside, presents a number
of open green complexes which provide level landing areas in front or on one side for bump and run approaches.
Golfers will encounter the same wonderfully conditioned putting surfaces for which the East Course is known. For more info, visit our page for Inverrary West, with a direct link to their website by clicking here
