OCALA, FL (December 19, 2007)--Experience Golden Ocala's tranquil beauty and award winning golf course design when the first-annual HITS Ocala Golf Tournament takes center stage at the Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club on Monday, March 3.
The golf course replicates layouts from Augusta National and Scottish link courses including Royal Troon and St. Andrews. Towering pines outlining deep green grass, sugar white sand traps, paved paths and impeccable attention to every detail make Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club's golf facility unsurpassed in the state of Florida.
