Hawk/Eagle at Pine Knob Golf Club

The rangers were telling us to speed up and skip holes, but when we stopped putting and picked up our ball, there were 2 sets of people on the next hole so we could not go ahead. This happened twice! The rangers need to get their facts story.

This is a classic example of “only as good as your worst feature.”

The course is a fun mix of challenge and playability,

In great shape considering the lack of rain and hot dry weather

The carts and club house are all well taken care of..

This could easily be one of the best public courses

Except

Like many public courses they are still trying to maximize profits by overbooking their tee times and not managing slow players

Wife and I are good golfers, not great but good and for it to be 2:30 minutes for 7 holes of golf and being asked to leave because it’s dark before the 8th tee is a problem..

Not being able to finish because they won’t speed up their league games is a problem.. waiting 15-20 minutes between tee shots because league players take 27 practice swings and play three balls is a problem..

Letting players wander the woods and fish out golf balls with their retrievers is a problem

They need a ranger who will enforce pace of play..

If I ever went back and could play 9 holes in 2:30 minutes my review would go up dramatically..

Waited on every single shot. Ridiculously slow pace of play. It’s upsetting that courses are stacking their tee times like this. Please let us enjoy the game.

Highly recommended for intermediate and beginners, there are some holes pretty challenging. Par 5 not so much.

played 4 holes on the Hawk. before lightening and thunder arrived. No sirens went off.

Course is fun. Greens are fast but unsightly. Needs some work.

My husband and I played Eagle and Falcon. Both courses were in great shape. They are very scenic. We loved playing there
