Joe Lee's Golden Marsh Course

In 1984 Palm City was gifted with a 35-acre magnificently planned golf course called "The Golden Marsh". The architect responsible for such gift was Joe Lee, a southern gentleman who designed player-friendly golf courses around the world.



Lee designed and renovated over 250 courses. The Golden Marsh, like most of Joe's designs, provides good results for honestly good shoots. And rewards exceptional players with challenging demands. His courses are as much artistry as architecture. with graceful landscapes which soothe the anguish of even the most frustrated player, the Golden Marsh, is available for players year-round.

Over 400 yards in length, it is necessary to hit a good tee shot to the left of center in order to have a clear approach to the elevated, 2-tier green which is jealously guarded by the lake on the right, trees on the left and multiple bunkers on both sides.

Golden Marsh has tropical charm, with swaying palms and grand sweeping vistas at every turn. It’s slightly less challenging compared to River Ridge, but still provides a true test for golfers at all handicap levels. In 2015 Golden Marsh golf course was re-grassed with Celebration Bermuda turf, drainage improvements and playability changes made to both the greens and fairways

What's in Rory's Bag?


Rory McIlroy has a few new toys in  his bag and Golf Digest has the details. Rory shared his new clubs with the magazine and how he feels they helped him in winning the Wentworth. In this detailed interview he discusses his clubs of choice and his recent win at the BMW PGA Championship. Read more about Rory and his new go to clubs.

The Toe Sweep is something I've been messing around with for a while and I felt like last week was a good time to put it in play. The one thing I really like about it is how well it goes through the rough. Some of those shots on the way in Sunday were key up and downs. The chip-in on 10 and the flop shot that I played on 14, those two were out of the rough. The way the club is designed it feels that it slides through that longer grass really easily and the ball comes out that much better for me. If there was one area of my game that I needed to improve this year it was probably scrambling, and this wedge helped a lot this week with that.
