About Perdido Bay Golf Club

Perdido Bay is a public course in Pensacola, less than half an hour along the Gulf from Gulf Shores. Where2Golf lists Bill Amick as the architect and 1963 as the year it was established. The ground is flat, and it's over 7,000 yards from the back tees. The holes mostly run in pairs, one out and one back, with ponds or narrow channels between them, and several greens sit beside the water or across it. It feels open and at times almost like a links, with pines on some edges and houses set back on others. The survey data shows water on 17 of the 18 holes and about 50 bunkers.

Curtis Strange got his first Tour win here in 1979, Pensacola's own Jerry Pate won in 1981, and in 1986 Ernie Gonzalez became the first left-hander to win on Tour since 1974. The course also lists Jack Nicklaus, Payne Stewart and Tom Kite among the pros who have played it. The practice area has a big range, putting and chipping greens and both greenside and fairway bunkers, and the Legends Bar and Grill is on site.
