Whenever someone mentions Orlando Florida, I’m sure a certain fictional group of cartoon animals may come to mind. Don’t get me wrong, with all due respect to Mickey & Co., they’re not the only show in town. Orlando boasts some serious golf too! Shoot on over to a great site for Orlando golf courses and see for yourself at orlandogolf.com.
Rumor has it that a golf legend can be seen regularly teeing-it-up at his Orlando based Bay Hill Club and Lodge. Still not sure who it is? I’m pretty sure you’ll recognize the name: Arnold Palmer. Now, you might be thinking that Mr. Palmer’s tour level course could be too much too handle. Don’t worry, the David Leadbetter Golf Academy world headquarters is just a hop, skip, jump and short car ride away. So get your golf game on!
“Well, I don’t really have $200 to spend on a round.” Not a problem, on the site, you can search for multiple Orlando tee times and check out bunches of great courses that fit all budgets! That’s what I’m talking about; great courses without exorbitant greens fees. And who would have thought that Greg Norman, Tom Fazio and the “U.S. Open Doctor” Rees Jones (to name a few) all contributed to these courses?
So, if you’re sitting there looking for a nice golf getaway, check out the site’s Orlando golf packages and special deals. Come on, you deserve a little R&R – oh and winter is right around the corner too! Hit’em straight!

Pete, Disney has some golf courses too, you know — the PGA plays there every year. 😉
I don’t know if they still do it or not, but Disney used to run “The Golf Studio,” a clinic where you could go and get a session with a pro. I took it back in 1990 (it cost $50 back then), and at the time you got videoed (unusual at that time), the pro worked with you for a while, and you got an audio tape of the session to take with you. The pro who taught me, Carl Rabito, is now one of only 43 Certified Master Teaching Professionals in the country and works with PGA and LPGA pros. It’s the only lesson I ever took that really helped me.
Just another benefit of Orlando’s golf culture.
