Unusually great weather for January

Wow, the weather was great for January. I started off with a windbreaker pullover on and after two holes was down to just a polo shirt. The fairways were somewhat soggy and that led to 'cart path only' rules for the day. Greens were in great shape. Very enjoyable round.

Hit it straight

Links style course with narrow fairways. Not many hazards but errant tee shots and you will find yourself in the wrong fairway.

Fun and Challenging

This course is short (especially if you hit it 250+), but it was fun sending it into tight spots. Course was in great shape and pace of play was good, especially considering it was a holiday. 17 is a real stand out, beautiful long par 3.

Pros & Cons

Pros: Armitage is a nice public course that is maintained really well for the amount of play it gets. The greens and fairways are always in very good condition. The layout is ideal for all handicaps. While not a long course, there’s plenty of trees and well placed hazards.

Cons: The only part of the course that isn’t maintained well are the tee boxes. There’s generally very little difference between the whites and blues here, so do yourself a favor and play from the blues as they usually are in much better shape than the whites. There are inconsistencies in the bunkers with some not having enough sand in them.

Challenging course

Well maintained course. The course is very challenging (e.g., narrow fair ways, sloped greens, many trees). But an interesting course.

Interesting course

Enjoyed playing here. Staff members were very kind. Short course but very challenging course (e.g., narrow fair ways with many trees; small greens with slopes).
