Knollwood Golf Club - New
Played On 09/29/2018The good, the bad the ugly
Pros:
- outiside of 4-5 holes the course was in great shape and worth the green fee
- I was able to let a few morning groups go by and play the round by myself
- back nine green and fairways were in great shape
- fun course that is great for all skill levels (outside of a few holes)
- staff was great
Cons:
- there were 4 greens, 4 fairways and 5 tee decks that I wouldn’t pay $10 to play
- 3 holes had completely brown muddy greens, might be the worst I’ve ever seen a green look
- A few holes are almost gimmicky with very poor design, hole 3 being the prime culprit
- if they can improve the condition of a few holes on the front nine and fix the glaring design issue on hole 3 I would give this course a 4/5
- the first 4 groups of the day were playing extremely quick, I was basically advised to let them pass through then start playing. For reference I finished the round in 3 hours while walking but that wasn’t even close to the pace of the first 4 groups

Deerfield Golf Course
Played On 09/28/2017Nice course right off the QEW
Pros:
- course is always in good condition
- driving range available
- staff is friendly
- Great course instructor if you need a lesson (Ed Maunder)
- usually a good pace of play
Cons:
- they expect carts in 15 mins before sunset which is a bit of a waste when you're trying to squeeze as many holes as you can for Twilight
- no grass tees at the range
- club house is limited
Knollwood Golf Club - Old
Played On 09/10/2017One of the worst courses in the Hamilton
Pros:
- staff is friendly
- the greens were in ok condition
- clubhouse is nice
Cons:
- absolutely the worst course layout I've ever played anywhere in the world
- half the holes have some sort of obstruction that punished perfect shots in the middle of the fairway
- half the holes have tee boxes that required you to go around a tree to hit the fairway.
- perfect example is hole 17 which literally has a large tree directly between the tee box and green. Some of the higher handicappers on our foursome who had low ball flights could not hit it over the tree.
- it's almost like someone who had no idea how to play golf designed the course and decided to put trees blocking the tee box and greens to make up for the lack of length on the course
- tee boxes were in poor condition
- pace of play is poor since the course is tight and even average golfers will spend a lot of time in the woods or scooting under trees
- there is no driving range
