Fun refurbished course

Have not played this course in decades, when it was the old Triple AAA. Good fun course. Not overly difficult, but still some little challenges. Course was in good shape for a muni.

Fun layout

Really liiked this course. Very nice for senior women. It’s hard to assess conditions since it was fall but will try again in spring. Greens were still nice even in mid November.

Fun Friday at Highlands-Forest Park

Wife and I played on a Friday and had lunch at the cafe. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather while watching golfers playing the final hole.
View from cafe terrace was beautiful and lunch was very good. It rounded out the day with a terrific experience.

Meh...

Every now and then I like this course, but lately the Forest Park courses in general have been terrible. Pace of play is brutally slow, lots of college/young kids that don't respect the rules or play with any etiquette. People looking for balls after their 50yd tee shot for so long that three groups get stacked up on the tee box. No one fixes their divots AT ALL on the FP courses. People taking tee times out of turn, or grouping up two foursomes because their buddies are playing behind them. Drivers honking at you as they pass by. And nevermind the fact that the guy in the "clubhouse" was a complete jerk and couldn't have been more rude. If you take golf even remotely seriously and are looking for a fun 9 holes near the city I'd skip the Forest Park Courses and check out Ruth Park or Creve Coeur.
