TIBURON - THE BLACK COURSE REVIEW

The images in this review are of the Black Course.

Both courses at Tiburon were designed by Greg Norman, feature outstanding conditioning from tee to green, with tropical landscaping plus amenities and service that rivals that of that the best private facilities in Florida. The clubhouse is picturesque, and includes a well stocked golf shop, locker rooms with showers, a restaurant and lounge, plus snack area with outdoor patio. Practice facilities include a targeted grass range with stacks of complimentary balls, a short game area with sand bunker, plus putting green. Bobby Clampett's Impact Zone Golf School is also on property, with lessons and instruction of all types.

The golf carts on both courses are equipped with an ice chest and rake (for bunkers) and also feature a GPS navigational program that provides accurate info from tee to the pin. Each tee box is marked to indicate championship, back, middle or forward tee areas. Besides the challenging green complexes, unique features include long drives over wooden bridges (over water and through forests/swampland) and greenside bunkers complexes with sod faced walls.

The Black Course is extremely beautiful and very unforgiving! There is a mix of wide and tight fairways, with trees, water, sand and waste areas forming the boundaries. You get what you deserve on this course. Tee shots that find the fairways and approaches that find the greens will create ample scoring opportunities as the large putting surfaces are true rolling and only mildly sloping. Miss to either side or long however - and the roll-off is extreme… with sloping fringes that lead to immediate trouble in the form of bush or water. The ranger in charge on my round gave me a helpful hint - if you are to miss - hit it short - as there frequently is room in front for recovery opportunities. There are 6 sets of tee areas on the Black that play to distances and slopes measuring 6949 yards/147 slope, 6465 yards/144 slope, 6049 yards/131 slope, 5590 yards/1114 slope for men and 136 for women, 4878 yards with a slope of 103 for men and 117 for ladies hitting from the forward tees, and a family tee box measuring 3975 yards with a slope of 98.  Golfers will find water in play on 15 holes and including the waste areas, there are around 50 sand traps situated near the landing zones or greenside.

The Black Course at Tiburon is the original design, and though challenging - is very fair and highly recommended.
