First Time Playing

Nice course...need to change the name.

I recently was visiting my neice for the weekend and wanted to play a quick 9 holes of golf. I found this course so enjoyable I had to replay it. The course layout is quite nice. Relatively generous fareways but there is water that can come into play on several holes. This is not a cow pasture course (back and forth...side to side holes) but has a gentle rolling series of holes well laid out. Also, no condos or homes on the course and surrounded by trees. I have been playing golf for 25+ yrs and I would recommend it to anyone at any level of play.

Very suprised -

Been here several times, always have had excellent experiences, a amazing gentlemen by the name of Chuck runs counter during afternoon hours, i recently went last week evening ours and another older gent' ran the counter. He was very short, but no need to chat I got key and on my way. IT was raining, literally nobody on the course, so I was taking my time. He approached me after a hour of my play, and I first asked, How you doing sir!? He then said' not very good, you are taking too long to play, I then apologized and stated how I was only taking more time for there is nobody else on the course, He then went on to tell me how I dont know how to play the game of golf, (I shoot par, on a regular basis.) and I am wasting the courses money, and his personal money as well. I felt so uncomfortable I just wanted to grab my ball and leave right then, but I finished. The most rude encounter I have almost ever had for paying a business my money and feeling this way. Very disappointing in this disgruntled employee. I literally cannot believe that this happend, I am still very baffled by this a week later, and by no means complaining, i very much hope they notice this and correct the issue for the course is very nice, and the other employees running it are kind. Thank you.

solid

Solid. This is surely one of the better 9 hole courses you are going to find. Me being a golfer on a budget though I never really play there. I was able to find a time on GN saving well over 50 percent for the 9 holes. Must have been a slow time becausone was really out there. Course is a challenge for the amatuer and in great shape. I wasn't a fan of the sandy greens though, your ball barely makes a divot and some putts that appear fast actually slow down. I would play again, but only at a large discounted price.

Want to play a championship caliber course but only time to play 9?

This is the place for you. I have played this course at least a dozen times and find it just that, a championship 9 hole course. Every hole is beautiful with it's own special challenges, perhaps none more so than the par 3 6th. It plays about 175 from the elevated back tees across a water hazard that is a filled in quarry. The green is above rocks at the quarry's edge and below a tall berm that separates the course from active quarries. Don't think you are going to just another "cow pasture" 9 hole course. This place is the real deal.

Perfect conditions even in the rain

I played early afternoon. It rained the night before and in the morning. The course was in great condition. There was not much standing water on the course. Fairways and greens rolled great.
Driving the ball you have to be accurate, but the course is not tricked up just because it's nine holes. If you play by yourself, like I did, you can play nine in about an hour.

Best 9-Holer in Indiana

Greens are just coming in after an unusually cold Spring and were slow-putting and a bit bumpy. Recent heavy rains have the fairways green and lush. Another two weeks or so of warm weather will turn the course into what I've come to expect.

I always enjoy playing Buffer, and look forward to playing it again soon.

This is the best coure for the money paid.

I know that it's early in the golf season and last summer was dry and hot. That's why the putting surface has some bad spots. But it looks like it's growing in and will be ready to go soon.
I would recommend this course to anyone wanting a challanging game of golf. The course has its own amen corner holes 5 par 4, 6 par 3, 7 par 5 water, sand, trees what a challange. You will have to see it to believe it. Fun Fun Fun!!!!

Very Nice

First time I''ve been to Buffer Park, and as soon as I got there I felt welcomed.. it was a slow day so only a couple people on the course, so playing it was fairly quick. Very beautiful course for it only being open a couple weeks...

Great 9 hole course to squeeze in an afternoon round.

I always enjoy my round here, fun yet challenging. The rough seemed a little long, but tee boxes, fairways, and greens in great shape. My only negative comment would be that our sand containers on our cart were empty, so we were unable to repair a couple of divots.

Good Challenging course for a nine holer.

Three tee locations for all skill levels, tee boxes, fairways and greens are in very good shape. The rough was medium length and the greens are fairly large with some undulation to them, at the time they were sand dressed. The course has a fair amount of fairway and green side bunkers with water on 3,5,6,7 and 9.

Great 9 holes

This course is well maintained. The fairways are in great shape and the ball rolls straight and smooth on the greens. This is a challenging course with wooded areas or tall grasses along many fairways and water that can come into play on all but a few holes.
