Beautiful Fall day

First time playing the course. The weather was great, despite a bit of windy. The course was in good shape even though it had retained quite a bit of water from the previous weeks rain.
The greens were in good shape and the fairways matched. the boys and I had a good outing and I would play this course again.

Lesson learned-Buyer Beware!

It was a beautiful weekend and an opportunity to give Shadowbrooke a second try was at hand. A reasonable price lured me northwest to this overbooked course one more time hoping for a different experience.
Upon my arrival I noticed another line at the first tee box, not a good sight...I hesitantly loaded my clubs hoping that I could at least try to enjoy the afternoon. But unfortnately I experienced slow play due to overbooking which prevented me from getting into a good rhythm. This has set my mind to marking this as another bad experience at this course. I understand if you overbook once, but twice in a row and a month apart in that mid afternoon.. Just plain stupidity! PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING!!
The owner of this sub par establishment should consider taking care of his course better than they take care of their patrons and maybe some will stick around. It looks like this course is in great need of some work and workers...I would consider helping if needed, but not sure if the owner cares?

TOO BAD, it actually a pretty cool little track...oh well

Could have played Glencoe or Montgomery for better experience

This was my first time to the course and I was excited to play it. We arrived 30 minutes early for our 7:50 AM tee time to hit a bucket of balls and there were already 5-6 carts waiting on the first tee box. The person who check us in stated they "must have over booked" a complete understatement!
The practice green could barley support 3 people and it didn't look like it hadn't been mowed in a while. The tee boxes,fairways and greens looked like they could use a quick cut. It was a long day I believe it took about 5 hours to finish our round.
I will check it out again if its priced less than $15 to see if they change anything?

Glad to get out

It was a great day to hit the links. Very enjoyable and pace of play was perfect. I conquered a full round in less than 2.5 hours.
Great weather accompanied a cheerful staff and an acceptable round of play.
Can't wait to get in another round.

Rained out

Not to say, it was a short round due to weather. Course was in good shape and greens were rolling fair. Cant wait to get out there again the play.

Small Town hidden gem

Great day for golf. Course seemed to be in good shape despite small areas of over saturation. Have good round with a junior golfer who had a couple of really good holes. We had a good time and will play Montgomery again.

Great November day for golf

It was a great way to enjoy the first day of November 2016. The course was is good shape overall, but a bit moist from the recent rains.
Thanks to Golf Now I was able to enjoy the day with couple of friends at Bluff Creek.
