Links of Novi
Course is not what we think of as a links course but it is a great track. You must drive straight on most holes and the greens are tough. We had a hard time reading greens. No long putts made. Challenging but fun.
Pin placements
Apparently there was a PGA event at links of novi or the greens keeper didn’t get laid last night because every single pin placement was in the most ridiculous spot possible. NEVER PLAYING THE COURSE AGAIN
Early season, summer conditions
Greens are in mint condition for May in Michigan, I’d take the speeds and roll in August.
Always a fun time at Links!
Eh...
I paid 21 bucks, so totally worth it...
But, being new still and golfing under a year, my favorite thing to do is hit driver.
The courses I played were south and east.... Tree lined, and not much water. Kind of boring layout but definitely challenging keeping the ball in play. Forced to hit hybrids and irons off the tee. Its the smart play but blah.
I'd play it once more but for the normal cost, not a chance I would go back.
The good:
Greens were in really good shape.
Fairways are well kept as well.
I do love the ice boxes on the carts...
Cart path only & East course infested with mosquitos
Played when it rained a bit the previous day. Course has bad drainage so standing water everywhere. Cart path only pretty much defeats the purpose of getting a cart. Don't play here unless there's been a dry spell.
Greens were good. Fairways were nice except for the standing water. Every drive stopped cold or plugged due to water.
East course has more than its fair share of mosquitos. Avoid this 9 or bring lots of mosquito repellent.
Perfectly manicured course
Simply a beautiful course maintained to perfection
Fantastic Conditions
Course is in impeccable conditions. Greens are fast and roll true. Course layout demands accuracy more than distance. Overall a truly nice play to play and again the conditions are PERFECT!!!

Not everyone wants to hit a driver on ever whole. Course management is what golf is about , not ripping ever drive to a wedge.
