Muni South always fun

Michigan City Municipal South is always in good shape. Greens were decent speed for this late in the year. Fairways and rough were good. Bunkers a little rough but that's due to people not raking even though they have rakes available. Greeted with a friendly attitude and easy peasy. All good.

Beechwood always in great shape

Played with my Dad and had a great time. The course was in excellent shape. Greens had playable speed. Fairways and rough green and full. Bunkers in good shape. All in all a fun time on the course. Pro shop always friendly and helpful. The weather was perfect as well.

Always enjoy Muni

Always enjoy the golf at Michigan City Municipal South Course. Greens were in good shape. Had some zip to them. The overall course conditions were also good. Tee boxes were good, fairways were excellent. Rough was thick in places. The only downside would be the bunkers. Between players not raking properly (if at all) and the bunkers needing better drainage and more sand. I was only in one but others in my group weren't thrilled with the condition of them. Friendly staff as always. Perfect weather made for an overall fun day.

Erskine is always in fine shape

Erskine as usual was in very good shape. The greens were a tad slower than usual but still fine. We were rained on on and off, the wind blew hard all day, mostly overcast but still a fun and challenging day. My only complaint would be the group following. Second time we played there this year and same story both times. Guys behind drive right next to the greens and tees. Cart paths mean nothing to them.

Elbel Colf Course. South Bend beauty in the country.

I always enjoy playing Elbel. For a fairly dry summer the general course was in very good shape. Fairways and greens were in fine shape. Greens were medium slow. If you got off the beaten path, the course had some hardpan and they quit mowing (to save time & money) in big areas. Overall, a great day on the course with my 88 year old Dad and two friends. Nee a cart on this course as it is very hilly and some large walks from green to tee on most holes.

Beautiful Beechwood

Had a great time playing Beechwood again. It's always a challenge. Greens quick and fairways excellent. Rough is thick right now but tough to mow with all the rain we've had. A great day with my 88 year old Dad. He still shot 103.

Beechwood - Best Course in La Porte, IN

Played Beechwood today in extreme humidity and heat. 90 degrees with few breezes. Course in fantastic shape. Fairways great, rough plush and demanding, greens fast but true. Always a great time at Beechwood. Kyle and the rest take great care in welcoming you to the course and glad to have you playing. If you can play Beechwood well, you can play any course well. Every club in the bag is used in playing it. Please include this in your travels folks.

Total Eclipse Day

Have played Erskine many times in the past. It is always in very good shape. Been dry for a while around here so there was hard pan in the rough and the greens were a little firm but overall course in very good shape. Greens were really fast downhill and had a lot of roll on flat putts. Sand in bunkers very good. Thick but playable rough. Met with a smile and charm in the clubhouse before our round. Total eclipse happened without even seeing much of a change. Maybe pre dusk at best. Will be back.

Pete & PB Dye co-design

Used to play here all the time but too tough for some of the guys I play with. Also, it is a bit of a drive. Front nine very links like with some drainage ditches to avoid. Par of 35 and probably the easier of the two nines. Back nine has some links feel but does have treed areas that can affect play. Number 11 is my toughest hole. Not overly long but swamp runs down entire left side of hole to the green and woods to the right if you bail too much. Angled green deceptive. Overall a hilly layout with hilly undulating greens. They have been very fast in the past but for this round they were medium speed. Clubhouse amenities minimal. Friendly staff though. By all means try to stay in the fairway. The rough is very thick and will cost you distance on full approach shots. Also, the green are very deep. Many of them are at least three club greens. Club accordingly. Have fun.

Beechwood in the springtime

Beechwood is always a challenge. The course was in great shape for this early in the spring in NW Indiana. Greens had decent speed and were smooth. Senior tees for the older crowd. Fairways starting to fill out. Great reception in the clubhouse as always. Just a great all around day.

Old time golf

We played Eberhart on a warm sunny day. Overall course conditions were excellent. Our only complaint would be that the greens were slower than we like. I would guess about 5-6 on the Stimpmeter. Otherwise the rough was lush, the fairways were very good, and the bunkers had good sand. Nice old time layout with 4 holes that you tee off over the St. Joe River. We will be back.

Great day at Erskine

Always enjoy playing Erskine Park. Greens are usually very fast but they were aerified recently so slightly slower than normal. They still had decent speed and putted true. Otherwise it is usually always in excellent shape. Aerification is a necessary evil. Fairways and rough nice and green. Fairways had mostly perfect lies all day. Some easier holes but also some real tough ones. Excellent sand in the bunkers. More of a snack bar area than anything. Very cordial staff. We have never been disappointed by anything other than our own play at Erskine. Will be back again and again.
