Thanks to all on GCA who responded to my request for suggestions on where to play in Jacksonville! Based upon all the posts and messages I received, we played Pablo Creek, a 14 year old course built by Fazio.

It really was a treat and unlike any course I have ever played in Florida. If you were dropped on this course, you'd guess you were on the Carolina coast, not Florida. It is cut out of pine trees, has significant marshland and a bit of elevation change.

You fast and firm guys would like it. Greens were very fast and putted really true. Quite hard, so you had to land short and roll the ball on (never my strength, so I struggled.)  Definitely worth playing if you can get on this course!

Thanks for the photos, Bill.

I've heard about this place for a long time, but these are the first photos that I've seen.  Don't go left off of #1!!

Wasn't Bob Duval the pro there at one point?

I went left on #1 with my mulligan...Don't know about the pro.

I also met this little fellow:

I've heard good things about the course and great things about the membership.  Not a bad combo!

Pablo Creek is pretty much off the radar for most because it is very private and  tough to get on....  that being said it has been on several top 100 lists and I think it is definitely in the top 10 tracks in Florida.  It's a great club and atmosphere with a very fair and varied design.   The caddies we had were terrific....  golf at it's best.

Just as a did you know fact...the owner of Rock Creek is a member at Pablo Creek. My caddie at Rock Creek caddies at Pablo in the winter.
