Slow Pace and Course a bit beat up

The Course was a bit beat up, but not unexpected for this late in the season.
The pace of play of agonizingly slow due to the foursome in front of us. It took us almost 5 hrs to complete 18 holes.
I like the Course, overall, and would recommend playing it to those who like a somewhat challenging but fair layout.

Good Course But With Soggy Spots

I have played this course many times and found it to be a n enjoyable time. However, this time I found some areas of the course, along the fairways, to be oversaturated with water. Basically, boggy. I lost a ball and I suspect it plugged in a boggy area.
Other than that, a good course to play.

Good Course except for the Goose Poop

It is a good course to play for the intermediate player but the staff need to do something about the number of geese on the course. Some greens have so much goose crap it is not possible to putt without hitting a pile of it!

A Good Bang For The Buck With Coupon or Golf Advisor

I would recommend this course if you take advantage of a discount coupon or use Golf Advisor for a deal.

Not a terribly challenging course, but enjoyable! You can still get in trouble off the tee, but recovery is usually possible.

Good Course with Fast Greens

Tee to green, this course is not difficult. Wide fairways allow for some mis-hits.
The greens are very, very quick.....at least 13 on the stimp.
Overall, a nice course but I think a bit pricey for a county owned course.

Okay Course For the $$ If You Use Golf Now

I found the course was in fair condition from tee to green, but the greens were in good condition! I can attribute the overall condition of the course to the drought!
Pace of play was incredibly slow and I played on a Thursday!! The Marshall said he was going to speed things up, but nothing happened!
You can find better out there!
Good luck!

Good Course For the $$ If You Use Golf Now

I've always enjoyed this course and recommend it.
Greens are always in good shape and for this time of the year and the drought we are experiencing, the fairways are green.
Not a difficult course, but lots of fun!
Use Golf Now or another site for a price that fits the course. If you pay the normal price then it is too much for this course!

Good Course but........

Very scenic course! I was cavorting with Bambi on almost every hole!
This is a challenging course due to the need for accuracy from tee to green! Fairways are not difficult to place the ball safely. But then again, if you go wide of the fairway you will hit a million dollar home, so be careful! There is little room for error on approach shots to many of the greens due to sloping away from greens into the bush!
This is a Bermuda grass course and I found the fairways mowed very close....almost shaved with a drum like tightness which caused my fairway woods/irons to bounce at the point of contact with the ball.
And don't try to take a divot with iron shots.....you'll break your wrists! lol
Greens are well maintained and run fast with at least a 12 or 13 on the stimp!
I like the look of the course, but I hate playing on Bermuda grass courses! Alas, I won't be back!

A Good Time for the Buck

Wildhawk is a fairly challenging course with exceptionally well maintained greens! They are very quick!. Despite the drought, the overall condition of the course is in good shape!

Fast Greens

The fairways are Bermuda grass and are quite dried out but that could be due to the drought and required less use of water.
The greens are extremely well maintained and very fast.
Overall the course is worth the investment if using a discounted pass. However, I would not pay full price to play.
