Subject: Golf in Boca


‘Municipal’ golf is a pejorative term for a course that is cheap, not particularly well-maintained and most likely poorly run. A “goat-track” with a rudimentary design – functional but often dull. This description appears to reflect the mayor’s vision for golf in Boca. According to Golf Digest the list below are the twenty best PUBLIC golf courses in America.
