For what ever the reason, the greens are in questionable shape. #4 I would guess is about 1/3 "green". The remainder of the surface is brown. Others show a good amount of heat damage. Always a challenge and the staff is great. $30 bucks to ride made the day easier to take.

Played it since it opened. Always fun. Greens are in very good shape. And if we get a good deal of rain the fairways will fill in nicely. Rough is in good shape. Tall and lush. Will grab your club head rather quickly.

Played Saturday afternoon after a promotional event. Greens are the very best I've seen in years. Hard and fast. As soon as mother nature give up a bit more rain the course will be perfect. Fairways still in need of moisture. I truly like the changes I've seen over the last 5 years.

I've wanted to play this private course for many years. From time to time a Golf Now Tee time pops up. We played after the course had been aerated about 10 days prior. The greens where still quick. If you can't place shots onto the green, you will pay the price. An excellent lay out. A good number of divots simply not taken care of by patrons took some of the charm away. This could very easily be a pristine course if golfers would respect what the staff has to do to put up with such carelessness. Great staff, had a wonderful time otherwise.

Have not played Shoal Creek in 3 years. The course has always been well kept, but now is showing real class. The northland should be proud of this course. More attention to detail, much more land scaping and the course is in the best shape I've ever seen. And I played there since it's opening.

Really do not understand some of the bad reviews. I've played this course since it was in receivership and then purchased. It was at best, pasture golf. But in the last few years they have done an excellent job bringing back a Donald Ross gem. They have aerated the rough, the greens, unfortunately for us where recently sanded but still in very good shape. And all the tee boxes have been well maintained. The driving range is coming back as well. Kudo's to the new ownership and I hope the efforts continue. Give this course a chance and you might very well love it as I do. Uneven fairways, risk reward and beautiful vistas, this is a very challenging venue.

Played here in the fall and I thought the course was doomed. Greens are in very good shape, fairways are about 90% back. Some of the tee boxes need attention, but over all a much better look to this gem.

Plays much harder than the slope rating. Great layout and coming along nicely. Greens are in very good shape and after a bit of attention some of the tee boxes will be back to 100%. This is one of my favorites in KC.

One of the nicest in the area. Go play this gem and you won't be disappointed. Excellent layout, fair tests of all your skills and a very well run course.

A true Gem of KC. Go and play it. A true 600 + yard par five that dates back to the original course when they played with hickory shafts. An excellent test of all your shot making skills.

Had to comment about yesterday's round. FOUR groups backed up on #3. And according to the gents we where paired with the same situation happened just last week. This is a great course and challenges all our shot making skills. But I will not return. Unfortunate.
