The Concession Golf Club in Bradenton, Florida, is the only golf course in the world that was designed by two World Golf Hall of Fame members and longtime friends, Jack Niklaus and Tony Jacklin. Having been named Golf Digest’s “Best New Private Course” in 2006, this 18-hole routing has drawn rave reviews all around the state and is widely regarded as the best private golf course on Florida’s West Coast.
This par 72 layout was named after a famous gesture of sportsmanship between the two designers at the 1969 Ryder Cup, but the course concedes nothing to golfers looking to shoot a low score. Measuring 7,474 yards from the longest tees, The Concession Golf Club’s championship routing has both the highest course rating (76.7) and slope (153) in the Tampa Bay area. The greens are fast and undulating, with plenty of obstacles before players even reach the pin.
To help players tame this challenging course the club maintains a celebrated practice facility that has been ranked by Golf Digest as among the nation’s 75 Best Practice Areas. The dual-ended driving range has ten practice targets and numerous bunkers for players to hone their game. The short-game facilities, including three fast, firm practice greens, replicate conditions on the course and are among the best in the world.
The Concession Golf Club also offers instruction from club teaching professionals as well as TrackMan club fitting onsite. After their round golfers can step off their golf cart and head straight for the clubhouse’s relaxed and inviting bistro.
From fine wine and elegant meals to a quick bite between nines, the club also holds special events throughout the year. With both indoor and outdoor function spaces that can cater to hundreds of guests The Concession Golf Club also provides a private dining room as well as a boardroom and meeting facilities.
