5 Reasons I love Bay Hill Golf Club:


One of my favorite PGA Tour courses is Bay Hill Golf Club in Orlando.

Here’s why I love the place:

The course, originally designed by Dick Wilson and Arnold Palmer, is a masterful layout with six doglegs and water in play on 10 of the 18 holes.

The 18
th hole is a blast to play. The par-4, 485-yard (from the tips) hole requires a laser-accurate mid-iron shot over water to a huge, undulating green bordered by deep bunkers on the left side.

Though it’s a private club, you can play there if you stay at the resort’s 70-room lodge.

There’s always a chance you can meet Arnie, who is seen around the property a lot during the winter months.

The service at the course and lodge is attentive but unpretentious.

  2. You're right, Palmer always puts his guests first. Bay Hill is not an afterthought investment to Palmer, it's his second home. He wants everyone who visits to have a great and memorable time. What a great promotion.
