Whether you're graduating or heading over to see the shuttle launch, you're going to want to check out today's feature: $16 for 18 Holes With Cart, Large Bucket of Range Balls, Hot Dog, and a Draft Beer or Fountain Drink at Wedgefield Golf Club in Central Florida (Up to $32 Value. Includes Tax. Expires September 30, 2011.)

Formerly known as "Rocket City" and "Cape Orlando," Wedgefield Golf Club maintains a golf course that allows players to touch every facet of the game and use every club in the bag. This "player's delight" is a longtime Central Florida favorite, and with its lush cypress-lined fairways and well-bunkered greens, it won't take long for you to discover this fact for yourself.

Wedgefield Golf Club was designed by Roy Albert Anderson and opened in 1963. This mid-length track provides a test for golfers that aren't jacks of all trades. At 6,537 yards and a 71.8/123 rating, the course relies on tight fairways, acute angles and bunkered greens for protection, requiring golfers to bring a well-rounded skill set to conquer the day.

At Wedgefield Golf Club, there exists a well-chosen variety of short holes demanding accuracy and long holes requiring length — and then there are the holes that place a premium on both, such as the par-5 No. 1. This hole plays down somewhat of a tree-lined chute into a slim fairway bordered by water on one side or the other for nearly its entire 547-yard length.

Water can be found on eleven holes in total, along with sixty-seven bunkers between the first tee and the eighteenth green. A great round can only be carded if you can successfully survive the punishing final four holes, notably, the dead-straight par-4 with length No. 15, the mid-length par-3 No. 16 with a kidney-shaped green, and the heavily foliaged par-4 No. 18.

Superb playing conditions and affordable year-round rates make Wedgefield Golf Club known as Orlando’s Best Value for Central Floridians and visitors alike. So while you're in town to check out the power of the shuttle or to celebrate your collegiate career, stop by and take a trip down the fairways of Wedgefield Golf Club.
