Greens are dead

Greens are fried. Mud with green spray paint. The rest of the course looks pretty good, guess I’ll have to skip out this summer.

Greens were unplayable

Very disappointed with the condition. Fairways were bare, and greens were bad. Flag positions were impossibly set for condition of greens - when you putt uphill and the ball stops and rolls back to your feet, something is wrong.

Rough shape

Course conditions are not great right now. Play here a lot but the greens are as bad as I have ever seen em. I’d probably wait until the spring.

Course in not great shape

Course in not great shape, super type fairway lies, crappy tee boxes and slow greens. If you want to play a muni go to Mo Willie instead, in better shape.

Nice course

I bought two t-times from Tee-Off for 12:10 p.m. on a great weather day. It started raining and we had to stop and ask for a raincheck. The pro shop would not give us a raincheck and instead asked us to call Tee-Off and get them to refund our money since I had paid my fees to them. When I called Tee-Off, they refunded most of the money. Other than this hassle, it was a good start to a fair ending. The course was wet with cart path only. I'd play it again.

Really good municipal course

Outstanding value for a municipal course. Good design and nice layout. Really good course conditions. Friendly and helpful staff. Good driving range. Great burgers. Exceptional pace of play for a muni on a Thursday afternoon : under 4 hours for a 4-some (with one walking) and a very s-l-o-w group of players in front of us who were playing from the blue tees when they were barely suited for the forward tees. Big bonus features rarely, if ever, seen on a municipal course: starters and course marshals who actually monitored—and good steps to enforce—tee time assignments and pace of play on the course.

Back again

This is the 2nd year in a row that we had the pleasure of playing there. The course was in great shape considering how hot and dry it has been. The traps and greens were in very good shape. The course is well maintained. The staff both inside and outside were friendly and helpful. Already looking forward to next years visit.

Great Pace

Played as a twosome and started just before noon and finished at about 3:20p so the pace was excellent. Very hot, about 107 when we finished. The course was in pretty good shape considering the heat over the last couple of months. Greens and fairways in pretty good condition. Off the fairways quite dry. Plenty of cold water out on the course. Take a couple of water bottles to fill as you go so you don't run out. Overall, very good day.

Great Course for a Day of Fun

Jimmy Clay appears to be really nice course. Fairways were in nice shape. As were most greens. This course gets a lot of traffic, but still looks great. Real variety from one hole to the next.
