Course Overview

At just less than 6,000 yards, this is the shortest course to make our list; the Bush family was famous for their two-hour rounds here. If you think that means that the design must therefore have perfectly placed hazards, superb greens and excellent over all presentation, you would be correct. Arguably, the two architects most accomplished at building great contours on medium size greens were Perry Maxwell and Walter Travis. Cape Arundel is the only course on our list from both of these design titans, so don’t miss out.
