My Home Course

I've been playing Armitage on a regular basis since 1995. It's rarely in bad condition, has a short but tight layout with smallish greens. The staff has always been great to work with. I truly enjoy each round I am lucky enough to play there.

Good Overall Value/Slow Greens

A group of 12 of us played here recently. The course was in overall good condition, the staff was courteous and professional. The rough is thick and a bit high, if you don't hit your ball in the fairway, it can be challenging to find. Pace of play was acceptable. The greens were the only issue we encountered, they were in good condition, but were incredibly slow, likely 6-7 on the stimp meter. All of us had trouble even getting short putts to the hole the entire round. Hopefully the staff can find a way to get some speed out of the greens, we would like to return but will only do so if the green speeds improve.

Nice course

I have been playing this course since the mid 90's and it has continued to get better each year. With trees being removed, additional cart paths being added, with having the bunkers being renovated the course has gone through marked improvements over the years. The fairways are tight and tree lined, if you don't drive the ball at least fairly straight, you could be in for a long day. The course is on the short side compared to most, is only approx. 6000 yards from the back/blue tees. The greens overall are on the smallish side, but are fair and usually roll fine. The course is rarely in anything but very good condition, it can be challenging on a few tee boxes to find a level stance. The practice area is adequate, you can use the putting green or the mini driving range, but cannot hit woods on the range due to it's size. Overall, the staff is courteous and professional and it's always fun to have an after round beverage and food at the Caddy Shack Restaurant.

Decent course

I've been playing this course since it's opened. The front 9 is unspectacular but decent. The greens are mid sized and are usually on the quick side, the front 9 is not overly long.
The back 9 is a much better 9 holes then the front, it's much more varied and challenging. Holes 15-18 are quite a bit more challenging then the remainder of the holes. Overall its a decent course, the price is a bit steep and it has a good overall driving range and practice facility. The staff are usually courteous and helpful.

Excellent Value

I've been playing this course since it opened, I love the layout, the large undulating greens and the overall challenge it poses.
The course is usually in good condition, the greens usually have decent speed, approx. 8-9 on stimp meter.
The value is excellent for the layout and challenge you get.
I know a few who do not like to play the course due to it being "challenging", that's one of the main reasons I like it.
The staff is always courteous and friendly, I usually play here 6-7 times a year, and would like to play here more often.
Water is in play on 5-6 holes and fairways are mostly generous.
