A good value at $40 I believe. Course is beautiful and in great shape. It's hard though, you better hit it straight.

Remember to bring your credit or debit card !! Can't buy anything with cash, nothing, clothes shoes golf balls, not even drinks or food!!

The course is in excellent shape love playing it !! In as good of shape as any course in Louisville or southern Indiana !! Would recommend it to anyone !! Loved it looking forward to playing it again Chris Ezell of Louisville. The only negative is your cash money is no good!! Can't buy anything with good old American cash!!!

Shorter Course can be fun and challenging

Love the layout here. Don't have to drive 280 yards each hole. A challenge to par from 150 and in consistently.

Great Day on the Course

The course was in excellent condition, the pace of play was good and the value for the money was exceptional. True Country Club type course for the price of a public one.

Staff has to be better!!!!!!!!

My father and I came out to your golf course on 06/06/14 and had some vary bad experiences with your staff. Please understand that I worked in the service industry for 15 years and I understand what it takes to keep guests coming back and keeping them happy. A happy guest spends money. Regardless of if they are there for a promotion like a groupon or not. I am not trying to get any thing out of telling you these things, I am just letting you know what we experienced. I know I would like to know if I was a GM of a great golf course like the one you have there at the Polo Fields.
First was the young guy at the counter, I tried to present our groupon that I got and he just would not get off the phone to help us or even ask why we where there. After about 10 min he finally asked "What do you guys need". I presented the group on and said that I had a tee time at 11 the guy said that it should not be a problem and they he may even be able to get us out early, I will let you guys know when you can go out. SWEET!! This was going to be fun and nice since I had brought my dad out there for his fathers day gift. So we go out to putt around a bit. Time goes buy and it gets to be close to our tee time and we see a two some go off the first tee and think OK we must be next. No one was really out there. So we wait, and wait and wait. Finally my dad went in and asked the guy if we should go and his response was " OH ya I forgot about you two. You can go." Well great, thanks buddy.
Second thing, as we were waiting we tried to go in and grab some beer for the front nine. So we walk up to the bar and there is no one there. Not a soul. And the bar tender comes out and looks at us and then walks over to the cash register to do something. After a minute or so she looks at us and asked what we would like. We order 4 beers and my dad tries to pay cash and she said "We don't accept cash. Our members know that. Do you have a credit card to pay with?" Well that was just rude!! So he pays with a card and we are on our way.
Third, after our round We where going to get some more beer and sit out side and check out some of the atmosphere of the club. I walked in to the bath room and dad sat down at the bar. There where about four people there and the place we not busy at all. After I got out of the bathroom I went into the pro shop to look at some sun glasses. I had lost mine out on the course and was prepared to spent 150 to 200 on the nice pare of Oakleys. But the guys at the counter never came around to ask me if I wanted to look at anything. I stood there for about five minutes. All he was doing was talking to some other guy leaning on the counter. So I just walked out. I walked over to the bar expecting dad to have our beers but he was still sitting in the same place with his card sitting on his wallet on top of the bar. The bar tender never even acknowledged us. SO we left.
Now I would think that if you where offering a groupon to get people to come out to your club it is to try and get potential club members to join. Service like that is not going to get many people to come back. I have gotten better service at other clubs in the Louisville area (that are not as expensive) for the simple fact that I could be a new member at there club.
Word of mouth carries better that any other advertising out there.

This is a great course

Took my soon to be father-in-law out for a pre-Fathers Day round and the course was in great condition. Lush fairways, full rough and the greens generally had a true roll. I would highly recommend the course.

Only issue is the course does not take cash. Kinda odd.

Superb Value

Superb value for the consumer. Nice, well kept facility, friendly staff. Course provides a challenge from the black or gold tees while more forward tees are friendlier. I didn't have a chance to use the dining facilities, but the clubhouse is spacious & well appointed. Burgers, brats, & dogs were fresh grilled at the turn; a beer cart was also making the rounds

Best course I've played this sppring.

Local knowledge required here. We played the whites, which is pretty short. Lots of blind shots from the tees ended up in hazards. If we had played the blues probably could have avoided the hazards.
Great course nonetheless. Great conditions. Will play it again without a doubt. Highly recommend that you play this course if in the Ville.

Better as a private club

This course went from private to semi private and then recently back to private. It's clear that whoever is in charge now has fine a better job. Course is back in great condition. Fun course and a great place to play during the week, as it's not busy. Hop on those golfnow tee times, they're a steak out here!

One of my favorites in the area

Polo Fields is a very technical and challenging track. You must be able to hit a straight tee shot on many of the holes as pricey houses sit right next to the fairways. Greens are challenging and nicely undulated. Course has recently been aerated so greens were not pristine yet, but come June this place is perfect. Probably my 50th or so round at PF.

Walked

Please Tell Us Your Greens Were Recently Aerated

Have always enjoyed playing Polo Fields,. Course is challenging and is normally in great condition. The only disappointment we experienced this time out was that the greens had been aerated the week before and heavily sanded. After several holes our group made the decision that anything on the green became a 2 putt unless you holed out your first putt. Tee boxes and fairways were acceptable for early season and the staff members were friendly.

course was not what i was expecting to be such a high class private course. i will not be going back. almost forgot stopped on the turn to buy a drink but they dont take cash. REALLY had to get a cup of water and ice
