Palm-Aire Country Club: Can any other venue match what it has to offer?

Palm-Aire Country Club
3701 Oaks Clubhouse Drive
Pompano Beach
Nr Fort Lauderdale
South Florida

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Is this the address of the golf/country club with "the mostest," not only in the United States but the whole wide world of golf?
St Andrews Links Trust officials could claim they soon will have SEVEN courses on stream and St Andrews does have a lot to offer in many ways.
But the Kingdom of Fife just does not compare with Florida for all-round weather (give or take a hurricane or two!)
They've been playing in shorts and short-sleeved shirts at the Dixie men's and women's amateur championships which end at Palm-Aire Country Club this weekend.

Here's the "blurb" from the tournament website:

The magnificent Palm-Aire Country Club is the No 1 golf destination in South Florida. It has:
*FIVE outstanding golf courses.
*TWO full-service clubhouses.
*TWO driving ranges.
*TWO great golf schools.
*TWO fully-stocked pro shops.
*325 daily tee times.
*THIRTY+ tennis courts.
*TWO terrific restaurants.
*TWO lounges, and banquet/meeting facilities.

Palm-Aire has everything that you could want or need… all at one convenient location! says the Dixie Amateur website.


If any Scottishgolfview.com reader has actually visited Palm-Aire Country Club, they might like to e-mail me at colin@scottishgolfview.com to tell us if it really is a golfing paradise.
Maybe there is a downside we should hear about.
Perhaps Wallace Booth will be able to tell us when he returns to Scotland. He is playing in the Dixie men's amateur championship. See his scores by switching over to http://www.kirkwoodgolf.co.uk/
