Spencer T
I hadn’t played Spencer T Olin in 3 years and I thoroughly enjoyed the course again, it is a fun challenging course. The course was in very good condition considering it was the end of November, especially the greens which were smooth and just quick enough. If you haven’t been there in awhile like me I’d get there soon and enjoy this nice public course.
Great Golf Course
The course was in its usual fantastic shape. Lady behind the front desk was not too congenial. I guess they were short of help. The young lady working the bar/restaurant was pulling double duty with bringing carts up for golfers.
Aprons were in poor shape.
Beautiful day and wondered if they had more tee times than they should have. Pace of play was not good. A marshal would have been helpful to see where things were backing up. Waited at least 5 -10 minutes on every hole. Usually things open up eventually but we were not able to get the last two holes in and our tee time was 1:30. Should be able to play 18 in 5 hours, played another course in 4 hours the day before.
We followed a shotgun start touirnament and were not informed until we got there. The tournement was delayed because a previous tournenent ran long. Long story short a beautiful day turned into a 5 houir 45 min slog.
Nice course
Compliments to the team. Frost delayed tee times for about an hour and a half and they had an event scheduled in the early afternoon. Their decision to send the morning tee times off as a shotgun made it possible for us all get our 18 in with only minimally affected to the afternoon event.
Best Value For An Upscale Course In The St. Louis Metro Area
Spencer T. Olin was disigned by Arnold Palmer. It is an upscale course course that charges $52 on the weekend - which cannot be beat. Overall, the condition of the course is very good. The only exceptions are the sections of burnt, dead rough around most of the greens, Only 2 greens had very small sections that were rough (holes 2 & 16).
The place of play was not the best either. No rangers on the course. The computer at the snack bar seemed to not be working very well and slowed down the quickness of the service provided.
Go play Spencer T. Olin. You will not be disappointed.
Good condition, fast greens!
I’m new to the area and played this course for the first time. It’s immediately on my favorites list.
Great course, terrible pace.
Beautiful course, pace of play was absolutely terrible, needs marshals to keep things moving properly.
Only Arnold Palmer design nearby.
Good course. Layout is challenging for the skilled golfer. Greens usually slightly faster. But it isn’t too slow. Tough track for the better golfer. Newbies and less skilled players should definitely move up one more tee box than usual.
Great course!
Always love playing this course! Challenging and always in good shape!
Greens need some help otherwise course in great shape.
