Hit the Links in Fort Myers This Fall

• September 17, 2014

It is often said about golf that mistakes are part of the game, but the mark of a great player is how one recovers from those mistakes.  In this sense, golf is a lot like life – we all make mistakes and accepting them and recovering gracefully is just “part of the game.”  This fall, check out a few of these great courses in the Fort Myers area where you might ponder this and other similar questions.
 

Shell Point Golf Club

This superb golf course offers five tee lengths for all skill levels in your party, an authentic old-style grass driving range and a large practice green.  But don’t be fooled, this course has difficult fairways and many trees on each hole that provide even the most seasoned of golfers with a challenge.  A great feature of this course is that it has very reasonable green fees.  Click here to view the 2014 green fees. 
 

 

San Carlos Golf Club

If you’re a golfer with a knack for a straight arrow drive then head to San Carlos.  Of 18, only two holes are doglegged, meaning that players with a straight drive have a distinct advantage on this course.  This is a highly playable course with not a lot of surprises – just excellently maintained facilities and fast greens.  This course also features a great putting green, sand practice area and driving range.
 

 

Alico Family Golf

The Alico Family Golf Center is a hybrid course designed only with fun in mind.  The course is easy to play, doesn’t take all day and is inexpensive.  The best way to describe the course is a cross between mini-golf and a full golf course.  This is quite simply the best place to take your whole family for a fun golf outing.
