Ruffled Feathers Golf Club
Played On 06/10/2018Soaked
We played it the night after a few inches of rain and the rain/mist continued as we played. Needless to say, it was pretty wet. Greens were in pretty rough shape and somewhat beat up. Course conditions overall used to be better when I played it last a few years ago. It's not awful, just not worth the full price you pay, in my opinion. Still a cool layout and a fun course. Lots of variety and not easy. Definitely not a good place for beginners or high handicappers.
Worth it for a hot deal price. The weather had the course pretty empty for a Sunday, so we flew around in under 4 hours without any issues.
Blackberry Oaks Golf Club
Played On 05/03/2018Nice course
Nice layout in great shape for the cold spring weve had. Fun layout. Hard par 3s. Easy par 5s. Good mix of holes. No issues with pace of play or course conditions. Would recommend.
Raintree Country Club
Played On 04/25/2018Soggy
Lots of rain led to some soggy conditions. Would like to play it again when dryer. Conditions were average. Layout was pretty nice with some elevation changes and doglegs. Didn't love the course, but I would play it again.
Whitetail Ridge Golf Club
Played On 04/17/2018Solid
In spite of the persistent cold, we snuck a round in. Hard to rate the course conditions as the wrather haant warmed up yet, but considering the time of year the course is in good shape. No conplaints. Always a good experience.
Whitetail Ridge Golf Club
Played On 11/29/2017Nice course
Played here a few times in the last couple years. Always in excellent shape. Never a slow round, and a nice layout that has variety without being overly difficult or easy. One of my favorites to play and a complete steal if you get a hot deal.
Naperbrook Golf Course
Played On 11/03/2017Adequate
The course was in good shape for November. Greens were still healing from an aeration...necessary evil of fall golf. Course layout was somewhat generic. Not overly difficult. Would be a good place for beginners and high handicappers to play. No complaints, overall. Pretty average park district course.
Wedgewood Golf Course
Played On 10/02/2017Park District
Park District course with greens and fairways in pretty good shape. The rest of the course is suffering from the extremely dry weather we've had this late summer. Overall, it is what it is. Would never pay the full prices they want to charge, but I'll take it for a hot deal or the early bird special for $29.
Golf Club At Wescott Plantation - Oak Forest Course
Played On 09/19/2016Fun round
Course was not overly difficult. Good set of tee options to choose from for different skill levels. Greens were in excellent shape. Great price. Would return.
Sea Scape Golf Links
Played On 09/15/2016Adequate
Nothing really stood out or blew my mind about this course either positive or negative. We had a good experience with no issues. I would play it again for the hot deal rate some other time I vacation in the OBX.
Manteno Golf Club
Played On 07/03/2016Run down
Used to play this course almost every day of the summer when I lived there in high school. It wasn't a great course then, but they did at least keep it maintained and used some water. It's curgently a concrete dirt pile tee to green. Awful. Wouldn't play it again, even for the steal of a $12 hot deal.
Ravisloe Country Club
Played On 06/22/2016Stealing
This place is a steal if you get it for a hot deal. Course was in excellent shape tee to green. Caught it on a semi-stormy day so we flew around. Awesome layout with no 2 holes the same. Can't pass it up for a hot deal. I would probably even pay full price for an afternoon time.
Heritage Bluffs Public Golf Club
Played On 06/02/2016The bluff
Nice layout. Course was in great shape. Can't beat the hot deal price, but I'm not sure I would pay the full rate.
Green Garden Country Club - Gold Course
Played On 08/20/2015Improving
I hadn't played here in a few years because the place was gradually turning into a dump. However, there was a good hot deal, and I heard some good things. So I figured I would give it another shot. Course conditions have improved. Not as good as they once were, but definitely a step in the right direction. Played as a twosome and got around the gold course in just under 4 hours in the afternoon. Greens were rolling a bit slow for my liking, but were generally in good shape. I'm glad to see things have taken a step in the right direction, and I will be back to play again.
Cinder Ridge Golf Course
Played On 07/24/2015Keep in in the short grass
Pretty tough course. Must hit the ball straight as there is water and tall prairie grass/brush/forest lining nearly every hole. Not a great place for beginners. Course was in good shape. Nice layout with a good mix of short and long holes. Recommended.
Coyote Run Golf Course
Played On 06/08/2015Generous
Worth the hot deal price. Not sure I would pay the normal full price. Course was in pretty good shape. Some greens were a little bumpy...just fix your ball marks people. Bunkers were in great condition. Course is fairly open with large fairways. Some trouble to be found, but it typically has to be a bad shot to find the trouble. Enjoyed my round and will be back.
Woodruff Golf Course
Played On 10/13/2014It is what it is
Cheap park district course. Average condition. Short course. Good for beginners. Stuck behind some slow foursomes who were unwilling to let a twosome play through. Nobody to enforce pace of play. Catch a hot deal and its worth the price. Not worth the normal rates in my opinion.
Tamarack Golf Club
Played On 09/19/2014Almost great
This course is tough. Very tight. Water and bunkers all over. Tough par 3's. Really a good test. Hit it straight. Unfortunately, the course was just in average condition. Weeds all over the tee boxes. Crab grass in the fairways. Greens did roll pretty nice, however. If they could just tidy up the conditions a little, this would be a five star course.
Odyssey Golf Course
Played On 09/09/2014Nice Round
Hadn't played here in a few years. There were a large number of GOR areas marked, but otherwise the course was in decent shape. They really needed to cut the rough, though. Greens rolled well. Pretty entertaining layout with good variety. Water always seems to be lurking, but isn't in your face on every hole. Dont know if its worth full price, but worth it if you get a hot deal.
The Links at Carillon - Red/White
Played On 09/03/2014Nice Round
Tees/fairways were pristine. Fairways were generously wide. Some greens were a little beat up and were rolling quite slow. I hate slow greens. Sand bunkers were in average condition. Could have been better. Water comes into play occasionally, but its usually a really bad shot that finds the hazards. Its definitely worth a visit with a hot deal.
George W Dunne National Golf Course
Played On 08/26/2014Soggy
We played after a lot of rain so the course was a bit wet and sand had been washed out of the faces of the bunkers. Not much you can do about that. I felt the course was in good shape overall. Very nice layout. Not overly difficult. Pace of play was good. I dont know if its worth the full price, but definitely worth it with a hot deal.
