Brock Fitch Just Needs A Hug

If you ever play this course offer Brock Fitch a Hug. Brock Fitch was having a bad day it seemed. As using a HOTDEAL made him very frustrated like it came out of his pocket as the only thing he could make a big deal of was that the course doesn’t even get paid for it. Okay…. So you get bad customer service and throw a hissy fit when people pay less for golf??? Had to ask if he was feeling okay but he was being reactive and deflecting but I know…. Underneath it all he needs a Hug. If you see Brock Fitch… give this man a hug and let him know it will all be okay. Someday!

Thoroughbred at High Point

Course is in the short side even from the tips, but course has some nice views with a few blind shots. Greens ran true and consistent. Was in very good shape for early in the season in Ky. Great value for the money

Fun Course

For a first time play, it was most pleasant. I'll be back. Some really pretty holes. Nice mix of residential and nature views. Greens were slick and challenging - very few ballmarks. Greens still made some of the shorter holes a test. Nice to play a few par 4's that required strategy off the tee - not just step up with your driver and bang away. Fairways well kept. At 75, played mid tees. Rough around the greens was long and exacted a price. Each hole marker displayed an etched photo of a horse with narrative. Really nice touch. Pretty, quiet out of the way location just 8 minutes outside Nicholasville.

Local Favorite Course

We played early so the dew was thick. The course was in great shape but the t boxes had high grass. I think they were mowing as we were playing so no big deal just had to use tall tees.
Greens were wonderful and we didn’t have any issues with any other players or the cart. What more can you ask for?

The guy working the desk

Course was in great condition. The course has come along way over the years. The barn inside looks great and a good place to have food and drinks afterwards. To the gentleman working the counter this morning 8-29-21. There is ALOT to be desired form him, I don’t know if it was the full attitude of I’m a d-bag coming from him or if it was the I’m soo busy driving carts to the front and then walking to the counter to take your money. Well shoot for all I know he might have had a fight with the old lady and brought that nasty attitude in with him. Never less we still had a great time. Will be back to play soon.

Events

Don’t let people book a tee time if you’re not going to let them play the round they payed for. We booked an 11:30 tee time and they made us stop at 6 to move on to 10. They had an event that wasn’t disclosed until we checked in. Afterwards, we weren’t allowed the allotted time to finish the round that any normal game would’ve taken. And because of the event we were rushed on the back 9.

Great day for golf

Course is in really good shape considering the heat. It was 95° in the shade so I basically had the course to myself. I played 18 hols in 2 hours and 2o minutes. There are a couple of greens that appear to have been damaged otherwise course is in great condition. Great value for one of my favorite courses in the Lexington area. Highly recommend. The restaurant is open and food is really good as well.
