Heritage Harbour Golf Club

Heritage Harbour is a par-71 championship layout in Bradenton, with five sets of tees that let golfers of varying abilities choose a suitable length. Despite a modest overall yardage, the routing is unconventional, featuring six par 3s and five par 5s built around risk-and-reward decisions.

The par 4s are defended by bunkering placed to both catch and occasionally save errant drives, while others leave awkward approach shots from the fairway. Greens sit on raised pads ringed by tightly mown collection areas, giving players the choice to putt, bump and run, or pitch — though shots left short tend to repeat themselves.
