The greens are in fair condition and yes the boxes are a bit small . The staff here needs much improvement. The marshal's tend to badger you while your attempting to enjoy a golf game with friends which were paid for . I woke up and traveled 45 minutes to play this course only to get badgered and mistreated by their staff. I will not go back to this course or recommend this course ever. I am submitting a formal complaint to the city of Tampa which seems to govern them . ** Update *** Since the above post we have returned to Babe Zaharias Golf Course and we really enjoy this course .. This course is very enjoyable and the course is well cared for. There are challenges throughout this course that will make you play your A- game. The Management here is great and very attentive to the needs and concerns of their patrons. We consider this our home course and will continue to go there for along time to come . Great Job to the Staff of The Babe Zaharias Golf Club ;-)

Paid $30 to hit off of dirt. Fairways are beyond terrible. Tee boxes are too. Greens were decent. If you like hitting your second shot off of hardened, compacted dirt, this is the course for you. Very little grass in most of the fairways. Gave up after 12 holes. Feel ripped off, very disappointed.

For a novice golfer in early 40s who has little golfing experience but plenty of professional business and worldly knowledge, this course is perfect. The course is middle of the field on challenge from what I have witnessed but the tee boxes are pristine and placed well, the fairways nice and wide (still not shank proof!) and the greens are in great shape. You can tell that the staff takes great pride in this public city course (one of 3 in the Tampa Sports system that are subsidized) and are always super friendly with a very well equipped pro shop and bar/grill clubhouse. One big plus is the location and neighborhood (Forest Hills) as it is very accessible without being hidden in some elitist, stuffy HOA or gated community. The cost is slso in line with being a tremendous value at twilight and super twilight (under 20 for 18 holes with cart) to being mid of the road at peak times. Overall, Babe is a fun, traditional vintage course with a calming, established and slightly elegant feel to it that draws you in the more you experience its offerings. This course is definitely a hidden gem in which I find myself appreciating its subtleties and magic the more often I play. Now go get some!
