About
I like to play golf at different courses with my friends all around Michigan and also with my Dad in North Carolina. It's nice to play different courses instead of the same one all the time. I play on the Golf Channel Am Tour and also other tournaments around the state. I have 3 hole-in-ones plus 2 gold medals & one silver medal in the Olympian/Canusa games against Canada. I recently had a brain operation to remove a tumor plus a chest operation also so it will take me a while to get my game back this year. I am pretty determined so I believe it will happen pretty quickly. I thank God for healing me & for giving me the enjoyment of playing golf. I like the friendly competition of golf but if I don't win it is very nice to just be out there playing. If I play well that makes me happy but I enjoy just being out enjoying the game and the beautiful day even if I don't win!

Briar Ridge Golf & Country Club
Played On 05/11/2023Nice country course
I have played here for many years and enjoy playing & practicing here. The course layout is nice and the condition was very good also.
They have a nice grass driving range plus 2 practice chipping greens & a putting green.
George is very nice in the clubhouse.
I would recommend playing here. :)
Tullymore Golf Club
Played On 07/30/2021Nice but expensive
I live fairly close to this course & have played it for many years. It is a nice course worth playing but they recently made changes that are not good. They raised prices; (senior rate on the Friday we played was $48.00!) The course is nice but not near worth that. They also got rid of the driving range; which isn't good & added a starter which they don't need. My friends and I like this course but the changes will keep us from playing here anymore. :(
Hunters Ridge Golf Course
Played On 06/06/2021Nice course in the country
We played here on a very hot day and enjoyed it. The course was in nice shape and we got a good deal to play this day. (Most courses charge so much money now it isn't worth playing anymore.)
I would recommend playing this course but bring a number of balls, even if you are a good player. :)
Genesee Valley Meadows
Played On 10/02/2019A pretty good course.
I have played here numerous times throughout the years & I like playing here even though the course used to be taken care of better with the previous owners. It is still a nice course worth playing & pretty long. It usually has decent prices. It has a chipping green also but needs to be bigger. Numerous trees have been cut down in the last few years also.
Pilgrim's Run Golf Club
Played On 07/12/2019Jeffrey O'Malley is a great instructor!
I didn't play the course on July 12th but I had a lesson with the pro Jeffrey O'Malley at Pilgrams Run. He is a great instructor and helped me immensely with my swing and chipping. If you need a lesson I would definitely recommend Mr. O'Malley! I drove 145 miles from Flint to see him and it was definitely worth it!
I have played Pilgrams Run twice and it is a beautiful course and worth playing. It has a nice range and the staff were very nice to me.
I would recommend playing here and taking a lesson from Jeffrey O'Malley!
Atlas Valley Country Club
Played On 03/30/2019This course is closed.
I have played this private course about 4 times and it was a nice course worth playing but a legal matter has closed this course; for how long I don't know?
Jewel of Grand Blanc - Onyx Course
Played On 07/24/2018I do not recommend this course.
This course was pretty nice .... decades ago but I do not recommend it now. It has really went downhill over the years. I wouldn't play here again and pay more than $10.00.
Paint Creek Country Club
Played On 07/16/2018Nice course ... but ... :(
Paint Creek is a nice course but we played there in a tournament and we had to take a storm break for a while. Paint Creek said we couldn't finish because another storm was coming our way BUT they then allowed one of their leagues to play. So we weren't allowed to finish our last 4 holes so their league could start on time! They didn't let us finish even though we had to stop because of lightning but they did allow their league to play.
I will remember that and will not go back there.
Dunham Hills Golf Club
Played On 11/20/2017Course was in good shape!
We played on November 20, 2017 & the course was in very good shape, especially for November! They were blowing & picking up the leaves and the greens were rolling good.
Brookwood Golf Club
Played On 10/09/2017Usually a nice course worth playing.
I have played this course for years and enjoy playing it. This day the greens weren't mowed very low so they were pretty slow plus they weren't as good as normal having some small bad areas throughout the greens. The play today was pretty slow also. Even though I like playing here once in a while I also would agree that the staff can be rude sometimes. Having that at the start of your round doesn't make for a good enjoyable day.
Briar Ridge Golf & Country Club
Played On 09/30/2017Nice "country" course
I play here quite a bit and the course this day was in very good shape. The greens were nice & so were the fairways. The only problem was there were a lot of leaves.
Brookwood Golf Club
Played On 04/23/2015Very nice, especially for April!
The day we played it was snowing during the 1st hole and very cold & windy but the course looked very nice and green & it was mowed very nice. It almost looked like summer the course was in so nice of shape. I would say this course is worth playing & I enjoy playing here once in a while especially if we get a good deal. :)
The Majestic At Lake Walden - 2nd Nine / 3rd Nine
Played On 10/24/2014Nice course & had a good deal.
This course is nice & worth playing. We got a deal the day we played so it was worth playing at that price. The summer prices are too high for us to play there but the course is very pretty and challenging.
Sugarbush Golf Club
Played On 10/15/2014Nice course but WAY too much money!
This course drastically upped their price to play this year so October 15th was the 1st time we have played it all year. We got a deal on the day we played otherwise we wouldn't even consider paying their new price. The course was in pretty good shape except for being wet but we can play other courses just as nice for half the cost. My friends will not play here again unless they get their price back to something realistic. We got to play fairly quick since no one as playing there. :)
Coyote Preserve Golf Club
Played On 08/20/2014Nice course & challenging also.
To start with, they let my wife ride with me with no hassles so that was a big plus! (If they wouldn't have I would have went elsewhere.) I played by myself with my wife riding and it was a very nice enjoyable round. I like playing this course & I got a good deal on this day. The starter was very nice instead of what you usually get at places. I have seen the greens better there but this is an over-all very nice course to play. If you haven't played it it is worth playing. We saw some wildlife and some very pretty scenes.
Wyndgate Country Club
Played On 07/07/2014Beautiful course but private
I played here in a tournament so I can't comment on the staff or the price but the course & surrounding grounds were beautiful and definitely worth playing if you can play there and the price is ok with you. It was one of the most beautiful courses I have ever played. Some of the greens had some bad spots from the terrible winter we had but it was a very nice course.
Bay Valley Hotel & Resort
Played On 06/06/2014Had a good time & would recommend to play.
We enjoyed playing here and were treated very nicely by the pro shop & ranger. You can get into trouble on this course if you aren't careful if you don't keep it in the middle. It was in good shape and we would play here again.
Lapeer Country Club
Played On 06/03/2014Wouldn't let us play even though we had a paid tee time!
Three of us had, and paid for a tee time on GolfNow.com but after we drove 25 miles to get there they said we couldn't play because of a league! We went elsewhere and will not go back there. Drove 50 miles for nothing.
Lapeer C.C. read my review & apologized plus gave us free 18 hole rounds for the earlier mix-up. They treated us very nice when they found out what had happened to us.
Thank you very much!
I was just made aware of your experience at Lapeer Country Club. Please contact Kelly at 810-664-2442 as soon as possible as I would like to remedy this situation immediately. Thanks.
Eagle Eye Golf Club
Played On 11/20/2013Great for this time of year.
We played Eagle Eye on 11/20/2013 and it was in great shape for being this time of year. The greens were slower but not real slow. We got a good deal the day we played also which we never get there so we went. It it worth playing here, especially if you get a better deal. Hawk Hollow across the road has more trees & Eagle Eye is more of a links course. It is worth playing both of them along with Woodside, a nine hole course nearby.
Fenton Farms Golf Club
Played On 10/20/2013Nice course.
We played on October 20, 2103. The greens had been recently airiated & were full of holes plus there were a lot of leaves which is expected this time of year. The trees were beautiful & we got a good deal so it was worth playing here.
Hi, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Pilgrim's Run Golf Club.
