Work on the Greens

The Fairways and rough was in excellent shape. The Greens were in pretty poor shape. I liked the course but the Greens need a lot of work.

Ditto today

I wanted to play Ditto before they shut down to totally renovate the course. It always has been a tight course and I hope they don't do away with that aspect of play. Please, please, please come back with good greens!

Average overall

Played on Columbus Day which may explain the fact that golfers on the course did not know proper golf etiquette. Played as a twosome behind a foursome of new golfers that would not allow us to play through. Definitely needed a Marshall in place for this event. We will give them another try at a later time.

traditional layout

Very nice traditional layout that takes advantage of the natural topography of the area. Greens were in poor condition but I understand the course will be closed for a major remodel soon which might be reason.

They have given up

My friend and I decided to finally play this course for the first time and I was very disappointed. I figured with it being so close to Arlington and the ballparks it would be in good condition but oh boy was I wrong. The fairways were in below average shape and the greens were god awful. I would have a better chance of making a putt on the cobblestones in the stockyards then I did on these greens because of how many weeds and other imperfections were on them. I thought I got a good deal by paying $33 after tax on Golf now but after playing I feel like they should pay me to come back out. Their reason for the course being in such disarray was because they are closing in a month to rebuild. I don't think they should neglect the course all together because regardless of how nice it is afterwards I will probably not return. Save your time and money and stay away from this place.

mistakes

OK....I made a mistake.....when I saw the HOT DEAL emblem on your site I booked it immediately only to discover at the course this "hot Deal" was for a weekday in the future! I did not look over the deal well enough and bought a round I could not play as I was at work yesterday.
The nice young man behind the counter gave me a reduced rate to play and put me with a 3 some. I played well and had a GREAT day :)

No Driver Needed

The layout of the course is excellent. It will challenge you to hit all types of shots. On the back nine, consider whether the driver is the best option. If you have a strong mid-iron game, try a long iron or hybrid off the tee for better placement. The greens were in rough shape, but they rolled fairly well. Very interested to play the course again after the renovation.

Local Gem

My second time here. Challenging layout and good shape if you can stay in fairways,.Pretty dry on fringes and greens have annoying weeds but manageable. Major overhaul coming @ course closing so I'll try to play again soon. Great values available....

Saturday at Chester Ditto

Enjoyed our day with an 8:51am tee time. Our foursome started on time and play relatively quickly. Our only complaint were the greens. They were extremely slow and had a weed growing on all of the greens. I've played Ditto several times, but I have never seen this weed in the greens before now?
Overall, it was a good day for golf..!

Greens in terrible conditions

I typically love going to play at Ditto but the conditions of the greens have become increasingly frustrating. I find it hard to believe that they could still charge $40+ for weekend morning tee times when the greens are pitted with sand and bald spots. I understand that the weather conditions have not been favorable throughout the spring but I find it easy to believe that they just are not maintaining it due to the looming closure for renovations. The staff and almost everything else about the course is on par for an average round of golf.. but when you cannot hit a competitive chip shot or putt because the only consistency of the greens is that they will be terrible, it becomes frustrating and a waste of money and time.

Nice day course was good. The only issue were the greens, they were in need of repair and they had been working on them. I would play again anytime.

Good value

Had a good day of golf, course in fair condition. Greens are heavily sanded, so your putting average will suffer. Course is challenging but nothing to intense. Good muni course.

Course OK, greens terrible

I've played here several times in the past year. The the fairways are OK, but all the Greens are in terrible, terrible, conditions. On every hole the ball will go through numerous bumps and patches of dirt to get to the hole. It's a shame to leave the Greens that way.

We played in mid Feb. and a few times before that. The green condition has not changed that much.
I agree with the "terrible, terrible" green condition.
I would NOT recommend this course because of the green.
NOT worth your time or money.
but has cheap beers :-)

Great course for the high handicap person

First time to play this course. Overall I was very pleased. I'm a high handicap golfer and the course was very forgiving, but still challenging enough for my my low handicap son. Fairways were nice. Most of the greens were in really good shape. I would definitely recommend this course for those that want to spend a relaxing day on the links.

Horrible condition.

Did finish the round in 3 hrs. There was more sand on the greens than grass. Staff is good. Maybe since their re-doing the course they stopped maintaining. I hope that's the case or they need to fire their groundskeeper.
