Awesome as always!!

Gorgeous 27 hole course, fully booked on weekends still awesome speed of play. Tough off the tee, miss it in the wrong spot and it’s hard to recover. Rough well maintained and so are greens and fairways.
I have played the course several times but still hard to read putts and how much they will break. Greens are tough and guarded by bunkers on most holes.

Not Great but not bad either

First time playing this course, it is a 55 min drive for us. We were not thrilled that we drove so far to play this course.Its a good community course, so if you live in the area will be good to play on a weekday evening or some low key weekend. The course has bunkers but they are mostly not it play or even maintained very well as they probably don't see much action. No water in play either just straight up holes layed next to each other except 1 hole. Greens are well maintained, grass overall is well maintained.

Course worth playing!

I live in the area and have played this course maybe 10 times. I love the course and conditions are always pretty good. The course needs to better maintain three things though. 1. Cut down tall shrubs around the ponds, on some holes when playing from the blue you have no view of the fairway. 2. Need to water the rough, hitting from rough was like hitting from concrete (this is a common problem in most courses this year due to heat). 3. Sand in the bunkers is very grainy can use new sand.
I will still go and play again though, fairways and greens are perfect even after this scorching heat and staff is very friendly and accommodating.

Awesome as Always!

I live in southern Indiana and have played Hickory Stick about 4-6 times past couple of years with the recent one being in April 2019. I have never found fairways and greens on this course in bad shape, it’s always flawless and challenging. Greens are some of the best greens in the area.

Improvement ideas - #2 is a odd hole with no character just a straight up par 4.
#5 is way too long for a par 4, this hole is already extremely tough due to the long bunker on the left and the elevated green.
Bunkers on the course need some serious repairing, they have been in pretty bad shape now for over a year.

I would have rated this course a 5 star if bunkers were all operational, I would still play this course again soon because of the challenge and beauty it is!
