Mission Inn Resort & Club - Las Colinas Course
Played On 03/09/2020Rough around the edges
I golf 3 or 4 times each day! I was looking forward to play this course. However, I was severely unimpressed! This course is rough around the edges. I appears that they don’t water the course enough. I’ll not play this course again! Nor will I recommend this course to my golf buddies.
Reddeman Farms Golf Club
Played On 09/05/2016Located in the "sticks". Desperately needs new greens, cart paths, carts, sand, and grass on the tee boxes!
You'll be on a dirt road for the last 1.5 miles to get to Reddeman Farms. I want to say it's worth the car wash that your car now requires. However, it's not! First impressions suggest that this will be good golf experience due to the nicely styled clubhouse and nicely paved parking lot. And the green fees did not disappoint ($28). But, the golf carts are about 5 years past requiring replacement. The putting green is well maintained. However, it is night and day different than the actual putting experience on the course. I estimate that 5% of the course greens are dead. More important - the greens are "tricked-up." They play smaller due to their upside down bowl shape. Also, they have more undulation then a typical roller coster. The sand traps, which are mostly hidden, are begging for more fresh sand. The tee boxes are begging for grass. The cart paths are begging for new asphalt. In the middle of the course, there are signs on back to back par 5's that state "cart path only." Both holes were bone dry the day I played. Makes me wonder if the course superintendent ever changes the signage. Finally, about a third of tee shots were "blind." When a course has a blind hole, they need to install a pole in the distance as an aiming device. The day I played, we were behind two fivesomes. Thankfully, they quit after the first nine. When we finished golfing and went into the clubhouse for a cold one, the pro shop staff asked " how did it go." When I started to tell him about the conditions and state of the greens, he was clearly not interested in my opinion. The following is some free advice - if you are not willing to listen to feedback about the course, then don't ask!
Farmington Hills Golf Club
Played On 05/03/2015Great walking course
Wonderfull walking course. Good test of skill. Some holes are tight, some holes are open. If you're good, two par 4's are driveable (2 & 12). The three par 5's can be reached in two, with solid shots. The par 3's on the front can help your scorecard, those on the back, may hurt your score. The green on 1 has the most severe slope, but no greens on this course are flat. The clubhouse facility is top shelf and the staff is extremely friendly. Do yourself a favor and give this course a try. Mention my name - Dan, and they will treat you as good as they treat me!
Kissimmee Golf Club
Played On 02/26/2014Planes, trains, automobiles, and golf
This u-shaped course is located on three sides of a small air port. Mostly single engine planes take off and land every 10 minutes. However, there is an occasional jet. Near one fence line of the course is a train track. During my round, one train rattled by. There is also a local homeowner on one of the fence lines that likes to work on automobiles, especially engines. The golf course staff is friendly. The course is relatively flat and the fairways are somewhat generous. Bermuda is the grass of choice. The greens are small but will hold high approach shots. The sand traps contain a good amount of fine Florida sand. The price is right. Overall, the golf is good if you can ignore the occasional plane, train, and automobile.
