About Silverthorn Country Club

Silverthorn is a Joe Lee course, and it's owned and run by Jerry Heard, who won five times on the PGA Tour. It's semi-private but open to the public seven days a week, 364 days a year. The GolfNow listing dates it to 1994 and counts 96 bunkers, with a mix of open, links-style holes and tight, tree-lined ones, at over 6,800 yards from the back.

The club calls the par-3 5th its signature hole, a green completely surrounded by water with a bunker behind it for anything long; aim for the middle and forget the flag. The 9th is the No. 1 handicap, a par 4 with a pond down the left from 175 yards out that wraps the left half of the green. Expect two-tiered greens behind deep front bunkers on several holes, and a three-tiered green on the downhill par-3 8th, where the tree-lined tee hides the wind.

It's one of 3 courses in Spring Hill on Yoink, and the closest alternative is Hernando Oaks Golf and Country Club, about 3 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.

Booking a tee time at Silverthorn Country Club

Tee times open 7 days ahead; call the pro shop at (352) 799-2600. The online times on the club site are sold through GolfNow and can carry its booking fees, and those have to be cancelled through GolfNow, not the shop. If the time you want doesn't show online, call anyway, since the club says it may still be open.
