Three intensely unique designs reign from perhaps the three most recognizable names in golf history: Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Tom Watson. The triumvirate of layouts provides an inviting challenge to an unforgettable weekend of stunning tee-shots, formidable approaches, and dramatic putts. Each innovative design captivates ambitious beginners and seasoned professionals alike.
The Legacy Course – An Arnold Palmer Signature Design
The undulating terrain of Palmer’s par 72 Legacy Course boasts dramatic elevation changes, making each shot decision critical as a little risk could equal huge rewards. As aesthetically pleasing as it is playfully challenging, The Legacy Course offers six tee locations on every hole, each overlooking a variety of natural preserve areas and generously wide fairways. If a menu of shot-making opportunities is your bag, this is the course for you.
The Tradition Course – A Jack Nicklaus Signature Design
Destined to become a classic, this deceptive yet beautiful tract again proves Nicklaus as the premier innovator in course design. With a smooth and flowing layout, The Tradition sets itself apart from the hilly terrain of the Legacy and Independence courses. Truly a “player’s course,” Nicklaus’ design features target-style golf with postage stamp greens, forced carries, and penalties for wayward shots. Move aside, resort courses.
The Independence Course – A Tom Watson Signature Design
Wide rolling fairways and spacious green complexes thoughtfully lend themselves to a wide spectrum of skill levels, though The Independence is anything but easy. This innovative course demands a precise strategy and solid short game from those who hope to post a low score. Impressive, yet well-placed bunkers make your sand-wedge earn its keep.
