Black Gold Golf Club

$120 is way too expensive for this course right now. IE has so many more well kept courses for like half the price. It’s basically my home course but I have to branch out bc in it’s current state (not counting the punched greens), it’s not worth $120 a round.

Rock hard greens built on mountain hills.. no fun when every other putt is running off the green

Green speeds are insanely fast right now. I’ve played this course before and have never played green speeds this fast. Fastest greens I ever played which made the round extremely difficult for an amateur like me. I consider myself a decent putter, Arccos has be putting on average like a 3 HDCP. 20’ putts with 1% slow you would have to hit 10’, it was insane. 3%-4% slopes were rolling back down hills. With such fast speeds, the subtle breaks consistently had playing partners putting the ball past holes by 10+’ and often times just off the green.

Pace was decent 4.2, would play here again cause the fast green speed isn’t the norm.

Round was going along fine until we drove up to the par 3 16th tee. We're a group of 4 Asians we're on the tee box who had jumped in front of us. They grinned the round to a halt
I tried to call the pro shop no answer
