Binks Forest Golf Club
In golf, you hear the old phrase "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" a lot, particularly in regards to a golf swing, and usually with the name of one Tiger Woods mixed in there somewhere. While this is typically sound advice, it doesn't always hold true — and today's feature proves it: $25 for 18 Holes with Cart, a Large Bucket of Range Balls and a Sandwich at Binks Forest Golf Club in Wellington near West Palm Beach ($59 Value. Includes Tax. Expires October 15, 2011.)
Recently announced as a finalist for the "Renovation of the Year" competition, this Johnny Miller and Gene Bates original received modernized features and upgraded playability while preserving the course's inherent personality.
Binks Forest Golf Course came about in 1990 and quickly gained acclaim by hosting the 1990 PGA TOUR Team Championship in its first year of inception. The course quickly gained a unique reputation among its other Florida counterparts with its dense foliage, including Bermuda grass fairways lined by pine trees reminiscent of the legendary Carolina Pinehurst.
Then, after being closed for 5 years, the newly redesigned Brinks Forest Golf Club showed its face in November 2007 and has been making strong impressions on the minds of golfers ever since. Measuring out to a maximum 7,150 yards from the tips, this par-72 masterpiece has more than enough length to provide an ample challenge to golfers of all abilities. And for those looking to scale back a bit, Binks Forest Golf Club features three additional sets of tees, perfect for those not accustomed to playing PGA TOUR-length courses.
Be sure to swing into the pro shop at Binks Forest Golf Club and see the wide array of equipment and apparel available at their competitive courses, coming from all the top brands you're looking for. Without mention, tally up the scores at the course's on-site Eagle’s Nest 19th Hole restaurant. It's the perfect place to put the pressure on others finishing up at the 18th while talking about the shots that could have been.
So come out to sunny West Palm Beach for some championship golf and a fresh atmosphere at Binks Forest Golf Club.
