About

Currently somewhat erratic as I just purchased new irons with hybrids this past winter and am having some success with the irons, but not the hybrids. While I still lack consistency with the new irons, my game has improved over the last year and a half.

Awesome course

We played quite late in the season after a couple of cancellations due to the weather man; however, the day was nice with a light sweater and the sun came out to make it perfect.
The course is in excellent shape, especially for this time of the season.
We will be returning here again ASAP.

Good course, tough for seniors

Course is well maintained, and the staff is very friendly. Some very challenging holes for older players with shorter hitting distances, but still enjoyable.

Good course, tough for seniors

Course is in excellent shape, but it's natural properties, EG water hazards and very soft spongy fairways, plus many up hill blind shots, make it a very difficult course overall for seniors.

Great course

Not my first time here. Ravines is one of the courses that I keep on coming back to for a challenging, but fair round. As usual the overall course was immaculately manicured with each hole consistent with another. I definitely will be playing Ravines again.

A beautiful course

I keep returning to Stonehedge South golf course as I deem it to be one of the prettiest courses in West Michigan, while still providing a significant challenge. The course is very well maintained by a most courteous maintenance staff, who go about their business while constantly respecting your play.

A very tough course

I found The Medalist to be a very tough course, made all the more difficult because it took 6 hours to play, which prevented me from ever establishing any kind of a reasonable rhythm, necessary in order to play your best. The course had a very large outing that used a shotgun start and combined with other sales completely blocked the course. Our tee time was 2:57 pm, but we didn't get to tee off until after 3:30, and finished after 9:00 pm. The course was completely over sold, and we were NOT advised of this when making the tee time. which is one of the hazards of using Golf Now.

Very good value

The course difficulty made it a very good value for the money. It has some very difficult holes where even with a couple of excellent shots you can end up with a double bogey. Has quite a few blind shots.

Greens were slow due to maintenance, but putted true. Rest of course was in great shape.

Definitely a good value. Looking forward to playing it again.

A very challenging course

Playing from the blue tees I found many holes to require my best drives. As well a few of the holes demanded an excellent second shot to make par. I would deem this course NOT to be for the beginner.

The course is very challenging as it has 6,6 and 6 ... 6 par 3's, 6 par 4's and 6 par 5's.

The course is very well maintained and favors the longer hitter. Greens are very well manicured and quite quick. Course is also quite scenic and has wild life roaming around on it. Saw deer plus a pair of Sand Hill Cranes with 4 young ones.

Quail is always good golf

For being this late in the season, the course was in excellent shape. Since they were rebuilt, the bunkers have become very difficult from which to escape. I will probably play there again this year if weather permits.

A really nice lynx type course.

Everyone we met there was very friendly. The pace of play was our own. The greens and fairways were in excellent condition and the greens putted true. I would recommend this course to anyone who enjoys playing a good and fair course.

Very scenic and pleasure to play course

My friend and I were paired up with another two some of really nice guys, who as it turned out were very close to our skills level. The four of us agreed we would all like to come back and play all 27 holes on one day. In order to do so one would have to make a very early tee time as the course does have league play in the afternoons. The course while difficult is very fair and immaculately groomed. The only very minor set back was the blt sandwich in the grill left much to be desired in the tomato and lettuce departments. My friend and I will definitely come back and play Hawk Hollow again.

Yarrow is an awesome course.

Right now I am pretty much on my game and still found Yarrow to be very challenging from the senior tees, when for most courses I play from the white tees.

We were paired up with a very nice couple who helped make our day that much more enjoyable.

I have recommended Yarrow in the past and will definitely continue to do so in the future.

Well worth the trip from Grand Rapids

I played the course after many years of not being able to and found it to be even better than I remembered.
Accuracy is a must and length does help as well.
The course was well manicured and the greens quick and true.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
All in all an excellent experience.
