Beautiful course
First time we played this course and would go back in a minute. Great course, loved the links style and the various challenges throughout. Only one 'bathroom' on course and it was on the back nine which is bummer, but definitely the only drawback.
excellent course
The course was a very good value but the guy at the desk gave me a bad time about the fact that I forgot my reservation number. Why?
Excellent choice
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were lightning fast fairways were firm. Difficult to hold shots into the green Needed to run your shots up onto the greens. I will definitely return to play again
Fun experience
This is an excellent course with varying challenges. While the fairways are wide open and it's a challenge in itself to lose a golf ball, the traps and greens test your will (and your talent). Clever hazard locations and smaller than average greens make for difficult iron shots, and a challenging green will test your putting skills, but overall the course doesn't leave you feeling in over your head. This course is in great condition, and is maintained very well, but you certainly pay for it. Would definitely go again, but likely not for awhile.
Good Time However.....
We played as a foursome and although only novice golfers, we played at a pretty good pace. However, the foursome in front of us was extremely slow. At times they would spend upwards of 10 mins looking for their lost balls.
Excellent condition
Played on a Friday afternoon. Pace of play was very good. Greens were in excellent condition
Well manicured greens
Course was in fairly good shape. Greens were in great shape. Only negative would be that course probably had too much watering and several fairways were too wet and it appeared that carts had gotten stuck in several places. Would prefer that the areas just short of the green would not be so damp. Otherwise, course in good shape for August.
AWESOME FAIRWAYS + FAST UNDULATING GREENS
A great course on Indy's Southside -- very challenging greens and huge fairways. Try to get one of the daily HOT DEAL tee times and you'll save big. Not sure if I would pay full price for this course ($49) when you can play twilight for $30 starting at 3 every day.
Super links course
Really a nice course. There are only a couple holes that i would classify as boring. Each has its own personality.
The GPS on the cart shows distances to front, back, and middle, as well as landmarks such as bunkers.
The rolling fairways give lies you don't always get and tightly mown areas greenside will funnel some shots off and well away from the target.
The huge mounds throughout add a lot of character to a well manicured course.
One of the best courses in the Indianapolis/Greenwood area without a doubt. We will certainly be back.
Love Hickory Stick
Great course...Great deal on the price. Any golfer in the area should go play Hickory Stick!
Great Course
The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Most fairways are somewhat narrow but the rough was not too deep, unless you were in or behind one of the several mounds that dotted the course. Played from the senior tees and the course is fairly short from there. Mostly used the driver and a sand wedge to reach the greens. Probably should have moved back a tee to make the course more of a challenge. But I'm 68 and was nice to not have to draw out the medium irons for a change.
good greens
Course was in excellent condition. Best greens I have been on this year! Challenges on every hole make it a true test of complete game. Wish it was closer to Bloomington.
Fun and well kept course
I've played Hickory Stick about 3 times now and it is in good condition every time with this last round being no different. Greens were great and fairways were good to just a couple minimal rough spots. Course is challenging if you aren't hitting it straight almost always setting up a shot in the sand or with a tough lie on a dune. The course has a fun layout and well worth a play.
love links golf
course and facilities where in great shape. I try to play this course a couple times of year, been playing it for about 7 years. Never disappointed. Wife plays and she loves the course as well. A great test of golf for all levels. One of my favorite course in Indiana
Soggy but solid
Course doesn't drain well even after significant time to dry out. Cart path only conditions makes one second guess playing at all due to long distances from path to lies, undulating terrain makes it difficult to judge distances from cart etc. Found myself carrying multiple clubs, towel, GPS, etc nearly every shot on every hold. In hindsight walking (push cart) would have been much better bet. Only other concern was that greens were just pummeled by outing earlier that same day. Otherwise course in phenomenal shape as usual, one of my favorites, especially tee boxes and fairways.
Good Condition, Cool Back 9
Very nice course. Course can be tough if you dont hit it straight. The fairways are nice. The rough off the fairway is thick (though not unreasonable) and the grass on the mounds is very high. Greens were great. A fair number of pitch marks, but most of them looked as if the player tried to repair them. Overall, the greens were well above averge for a public course.
Back 9 has a cool layout with some longer holes. 16 was my favorite. Dog leg left with a pond running the whole left side with mounds and bunkers on the right.
If I were to find faults, I would say they need to take better care of the bunkers. Some were rocky. My advice to the course would be to purchase some better sand. It seriously would make a huge difference. Also, a cart person with drinks and snacks driving around would be convenient.
Again, nice course, true identity, good shape, must play.
US Open rough
Great course if you are preparing for the US Open! Rough just off the fairway ranged from 3 to 6 inches. Took the driver out of play. Lost two balls that rolled through the fairway just a couple of feet. Great test of golf, but probably unplayable for the average golfer.
good shape
The course was in very good shape. The rough a bit too deep. Bunkers need raking
Great value
This course has a a great layout and right at 6000 yrds from the white tees. Greens were in good condition. The GPS in the carts is a big help as well.
