Has anyone ever played this course? It is constantly in the top 10 of Florida and would love some information on the course. Who designed it, how it plays, pictures if possible?

Fazio. Circa 1995. Style: Classic Fazio (in both the good and bad sense). Bold bunkering. A beautiful course - especially the middle holes on the back nine. Very private. But too many greens seem to open up from bail-out areas. A textbook example of how Fazio can let aesthetic concerns get the better of golfing concerns.

Having said that, it probably is a top 10 course in FLA. Which says more about golf in FLA than it does about Pablo.

Pablo is a wonderful "Golf Only" club. The club is rather exclusive. Several Touring Pros living in the Ponte Vedra area frequent the club. In fact legend has it that David Duval left his Open Championship Trophy on the bar for several months.

I was fortunate to play with one of the members two years ago. He indicated that the one rule the club proudly enforced was that all guests must be accompanied by a Member.

The combination of a wonderful golf courseand a great atmosphere make Pablo a "must play".
