Panther Lake is everything you could want in a golf course. Playing over rolling meadows, through native pines, around and over wetlands, lakes, and up and down elevation changes of up to 60 feet, it is first and foremost a visual delight, reminding you that natural beauty is one of the main reasons you play golf and a major factor in deciding which course to play.

Panther Lake offers some of the best examples of natural beauty that Orlando area golf courses have to offer. One of the highlights is that there is no development on or around the course – a Florida golf course with no homes! You will likely encounter many native species of birds and wildlife during your round, which will be enjoyed in the most tranquil of settings.

Every hole on Panther Lake is unique and requires something different from your shot making repertoire. This is another feature that makes this Central Florida golf course so special; when you finish your round you will likely be able to recall each hole very vividly as they are all very different in appearance as well as appealing in design to the eye.

The variety in design is evident in the way no two holes play alike. There are no boring holes at Panther Lake, and each is as distinct and memorable as the last. The only characteristic the holes share is that each shot demands good thinking and precise execution.

Off the tee, you will face gently sloping fairways guarded by strategically placed fairway bunkers, trees and water hazards that frame the holes and provide a clear line of play. From the fairway, you will hit many approaches into well-guarded elevated greens, which are large and have plenty of contours, so two-putting isn’t automatic.

Simply put, good shots will be rewarded and bad shots penalized, the hallmark of great courses everywhere. If you’re looking for a bit more golf course, the tour tees provide as stern a test as you’ll find anywhere, with intimidating carries and risk-reward approaches that can lead to birdies or bogeys. From the three forward tees, you’ll face shorter carries, softer angles and wider landing areas, making Panther Lake more friendly but no less memorable.

When you play #10, look at the shot from 150 yards to the green. That is the spot where Tiger Woods was told to “Get more forgiving irons, the Nike Pro-Combos” by his talking headcover, Frank, during the very popular commercial. Will you be able to hit the elevated green from there with your irons?

There’s something about Bay Hill that makes a golfer’s heart beat faster. Open only to Club members and guests staying at the Bay Hill Club & Lodge, the breathtaking course sweeps across 270 acres along the shores of the Butler Chain of Lakes.

Water comes into play on nearly every hole on this par-72 course. Large lakes, small ponds, and narrow waterways are all encountered as golfers make their way from tee to tee. Many times the water hazards stretch across two, three, and even four holes at a time, making the course at Kissimmee Golf Club seem relentless. Golfers will also notice fairways that are lined with beautiful pines, majestic oaks, and breezy palms –without a house in sight. The greens are well-maintained and ideal for those wanting to improve on their short game.

Experts will always be challenged, especially playing from the championship tees – totaling 6,442 yards of play.
