Very poor condition. Not in normal golf shape.
This was my first time playing this course and it was recommended by a friend who hadn't played there in a few years. This course was in very poor shape. Very few select areas had normal grass, and so much of the course appeared to be in much need of major grass reseeding and reconstruction. We played ball in hand since there were too many shots that landed in areas with no grass in both fairways and rough. The course also had the most annoying golf carts controlled by GPS that would shut the cart off and force you to put the cart in reverse in random places on the course due to "detecting" that you were close to a green. The feature sounded cool, but was very frustrating in actuality.
Dirt....
Course was in horrible shape. Having played this course in the past I was amazed at the online price we found for the round. Once we got there we saw why. They were obviously having a hard time keeping grass alive. They were actively out spreading seed and trying to recover but it was a mess. We had to basically play improved lies the entire round to find grass to hit from. The layout is fun but with the current conditions I wouldn't have played there for free. I'm sure they'll recover in the off season, this course has always been in decent to great shape in the past.
Dog Track
Course is in horrible condition. Clearly has issues with drainage, with lots of fairway lost to brown outs from rain/sun. Greens very muddy and ugly.
Layout is very targety. You'd need to play it multiple times to know where to go, but I wouldn't recommend playing it once. Even for the hot deal price, it's not worth it.
Bottom line, it's the worst course I've played in Indiana in terms of layout and conditions. Spend time/money elsewhere.
Very enjoyable experience
This was a challenging course with many narrow fairways. There were a few blind tee shots that I would love to play again. Overall the greens were very nice, they rolled true, but a few of them were pretty soggy. A few of the fairways had some pretty saturated areas also . I can overlook that because the guy in the clubhouse said that they had 13 inches of rain in the last 12 days. I would definitely play this course again and recommend anyone to try this course .
Could be better
The course was in pretty good shape. A lot of woods and rough, so potentially some ball loss for less than advanced golfers. Narrow fairways in some cases however a lot of back and forth play waiting on those coming at you to hit shots. What really displeased me was the carts would slow down each time you entered a fairway and cut off if you got too close to the green. I understand why, however this was never explained to us and a distraction. All in all not very fun.
Very friendly
I play both the north and south courses and use Golf Now. The staff is always so friendly and helpful. Quite often they will let you go a little early to help beat the heat or rain forecast. They are working on the course trying to make a good golf course a little better, which I find refreshing. Thanks staff for making us Golf Now customers feel welcome.
Goofy Course
I do not normally do reviews and I made sure I played the course twice before I bashed it. Pace of play was awful nobody would let me play through, not the courses fault but should have a ranger there were 20 people standing around that worked there when I tee'd off and when I finished. If you like courses with giant creeks in the middle of fairways and blind tee shots this course is for you (not one but 3 holes with a creek that runs through the fairway). Some of the locations of the Blue tees you have to hit around trees or bushes directly in front of you. It's a shame cause it seems they just want to be a hard course cause they are in Carmel, could be a great course with some work in the offseason (tree and bush removal and moving tee boxes). Also the GPS on the cart does not tell you the distance to the pin and they have no pun position chart.
Great Local Course
Course certainly has its challenges, but still enjoyable to play. Would recommend to anyone in the area.
Great layout
Open at times has a few tight holes
Long long ago
I had not played this course in about 15 years. It is quite a drive for me. We had a foursome and they allowed us to tee off when we were ready. This course was in GREAT shape. Rough, fairways ( from what the other 3 guys told me) and greens. Lots of big trees. You have to hit the ball well to score well. What a challenge and what a fun course for a money game.
Solid Condition !
Considering the 4-5 inches of rain that fell 2 days before my round, the course was in very good condition. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they have added GPS to the carts here. This place is well run by the staff. It is not quite in the top tier of courses in the metro area, but close behind. All in all, I'm a fan.
Very helpful and gteat deal
Use the hot deal price a lot of times at this course and it is really a good deal for this nice of a course. The staff is always friendly and even will let you go early if they can. They really try to accommodate you. Was a little slow at first because of mens club but opened up really fast and it wasn't that bad anyway. Course in great shape and greens are perfect. The rough is thick and challenging. Good experience :)
Spring Golf -Great rate
I booked this round on-line and got a great rate for the 18 hole round with cart included. The fairways and greens are in very good condition for spring golf.
Solid golf
Brookshire is a decent, above average track in the Indy market. It's well priced with an interesting layout that features some elevation changes in its routing, not all that common in the Indy area.
Course conditions are good, with a few worn spots, but not all that significant. Bunkers look well-maintained, which can also be uncommon for the area. The greens rolled very well, but are quite firm and tend to not hold shots
Nice course
Course in nice shape. Greens medium speed and holding approach shots well.
Fairways in good shape and rough thick with leaves as expected this time of year. A little problem with blind shots and not knowing if group in front had cleared.
Would play again.
Pretty good
Hasn't rained in weeks yet the course was squishy. Most people think green is good but could have been a little firmer and faster. Greens do putt true
Good course, bottle necked and pace of play terrible
Overall a great course and fun to play. Always like playing there. A starter for mid day was needed as some groups cut their tee time and then slowed the rest of the groups down. Got bottle necked on 15 thru 18 waiting for 4 groups in front of us. Behind myself and a friend was two separate single golfers who we let join us due to lengthy wait for everyone. typically not like this for this course , so hopefully just a fluke with your not so everyday golfers.
Very, very, very slow
This is a nice course, although this was the first time that I booked through GolfNow. There was no marshall and a fivesome of women backed-up the course. The first nine holes took 3 hours to play and we finally went around six foursomes to finish the eighteen. I realized this was an anomily. Never before had I experienced this at Brookshire. The wait absolutely ruined our round.
Challenging Course
This course will challenge you to use different clubs off the tee with placement for the second shot very important. The course was in good condition. A few holes are difficult to view from tee. Be sure to have gps or course layout from pro shop.
Put the Driver Away
This is course number three since I've moved to Indiana and by far my favorite. As a player that thrives from the tee box this course was quite the challenge. Many of the medium length par 4's have water right at the driver's landing point at 260- 280 yards or so. This made me play a lot of 3 wood and low irons off the box. There were also many holes that had a very small window to be able to go after the green in two. If you would like to challenge yourself and get out of the driver/ nine iron type holes this is where you need to be. I will be back to continue to polish my game. I was very thankful to get out with a 39/36!
