About

I'm an honest golfer loving seeing the improvements to my game. I have my best friend who really is not a golf fan, but likes Rickie Fowler my wife. Thanks to Golf Now I can play some really dialed in courses. Having a lot of fun!!!!! Hospitality in the business is always appreciated when visiting their courses. I shoot bogey golf and have shot some mid 80's. I've been very consistent with the driver and keep my wife out of the woods. I club a shot here and there. My mid irons stink, I hit them thin. Putting is good, don't three putt very often. Love hitting woods and hybrids off the deck. I played RTJ course the legislator and wow what a course. Shot a 92 from the orange. Look forward to playing some great courses the rest off the year and not sweating to death!!!

Nice!!!!!

First time on course. Great day. Only draw back was first hole has been converted to a par 4 from a 5, due to extending of the driving range. I almost drove the green, I called the pro shop and that's how I found out. Scorecards need to be updated. Tees, fairways and greens were very playable. Looks like in the next month or so this course will be a great track. Love holes 9 and 18 coming in. I like how certain holes were roped off so the course could keep it's luster. Fair but challenging layout for all handicaps. Huge greens. Overall had a great round and will be back.

Crabgrass oh my!!!!

Not sure what happened to the course but it looked neglected. The whole course is full of weeds. Tees, fairways and greens. Bunkers not raked, exposed drainage pipes in one. Wet areas, looks like some repairs were done, but it looked like they just through some nasty sod down. Doesn't look like anyone is taking pride in the course. Greens rolled terrible, bumpy and full of weeds. Needs some love. I played in the winter, much better shape. Over priced for the condition the course was in.

I am sorry to hear that you had a poor experience here at Crosswinds Golf Club. I see you have played here in the past and have enjoyed yourself. I can tell you that we are doing everything in our power to get the condition of the golf course better everyday. The big issue we have struggle with this year is the weather. Our bermuda grass is over a month behind due to the late frost we got in March. The frost hit the young growing bermuda hard and this lead to the late POA outbreak we are experiencing now. We are waiting for the grass to pop and fill in and we are spraying to kill the POA. We have started on bunker work over the last month or so and have redone many bunkers on the front 9 and now addressing the back 9. The hurricanes over the past 2 years have taken a toll on bunkers in our area. I am not here to make excuses and I hope you will give us another try in the future. We will cross our fingers for warmer temperatures and a little rain will help!!

Nice day.....

Early tee time...... First one out...pace of play excellent. Great course to work on your game. Can't beat the price. Less than a bucket of balls. Cameron the super, nice as all and really cares on improving the course. Paul and I spoke for a few which I'll be attending some events. If you have a golf fix, hit this course up. Give it a few months and the course should be improving. Tough winter with a lot of rain. Shout out to the few staff members at the Mary!!!!!

Watch the cups!!!!

Woke up super early, drive from Savannah. Gnats were out. Greens were super fast. Tee to green was what I expected from a resort course. Only criticism would be is to warn the golfers that you just painted the cups. The first hole I got white paint on my hands and my black pants because I put my ball in my pocket. I went to pro shop and the lady working said that the paint might come out. Wow!!!! Not the response I was looking for. She handed me a card. Said call this guy and sent me on my way.To say the least it was on my mind, they weren't cheap pants.

Nice day.....

Overall ok. Tough coming thru the winter months. Greens looked like leopards. Spotty and space in areas. Bumpy. Tees need some love. Fairways looked mowed since last played. Hope to see improvements.

Terrible!!!!

First time and last time...... Course layout was confusing. It seemed like they had made up cart paths all over the course, not very good for a first timer. Greens rolled like fairways. Very slow. Fairways not mowed. Hard to,find grass on the tee boxes. My back is killing me. Fairways bumpy and cart so paths terrible. Best weather day wasted.
So many leaves in fairway, actually lost couldn't find my ball. Played early, not a worker to be found. Not understanding the lack of Maintenance.
For Brian Harmon to have two signed tour bags and a photo of his first win on the wall, I thought I was in for a good day. Not the case. Need ALOT of work

SWEET!!!!

Best course in the winter conditions. I brought a new golf friend with me and his response was what a track. Played the blues, little long with some wind today. Course was challenging but fair. Greens, tees and fairways ALL in excellent condition......My friend said he wants another crack at it. When the clubhouse gets complete should be a gem. All the guys in the pro shop make you feel welcomed. The superintendent is doing a fantastic job. Kudos. See you next week.

Great Day at the course. It's nice to see such hospitable people in the golf business. Great staff at the clubhouse, friendly as can be. The course was in great condition. Tee boxes to the fairways and the greens rolling true. Nice roll in the fairways after a good pop!!!! New tee boxes on 17 will be nice when grown in. Love the last two finishing holes. Great course, not too much trouble, nice layout #1 par 5 reachable in 2 for a great start. Pace of play excellent. Sarah very accommodating on the turn for food. Will be back.

Finished 18 in 3 hrs......Best course I've played this year. Greens were smooth and fast, fairways excellent, rough areas well maintained, seemed like they were working on the sand traps, when done should be great. Some tee boxes needed resoded, little sparce. The first course this year that the cart paths didn't beat you to heck. Thank you. Overall, great course. Will be back soon. I recommended this course to a couple from Canada, if they played I'm sure they had a great time. The lunch buffet is outstanding!!!!!!!☺☺⛳⛳

Challenging

Played today Crupp course. Great conditions perfect golf day. Pro shop associate very pleasant and accomadating. Starter welcomed us and gave us the run down of the course. Nice guy!!!! Nice tee boxes, fairways very receptive and rewarding with a good drive, greens were just recently top dressed but still rolled well. The most challenging course I've played all year. But fair!!! Course really made you think. Today would of been a 5 if the pace of play would have been a little speeder. Hard to get in a rhythm, jammed up ahead and behind you. Still had a good time. I paired up with a great couple from Canada, Vince and Susan. Made the wait not so long since we kept some conversation going between teeing off. Lisa the cart attendant very nice!! Thanks for having one. Would definitely play again.

Disappointed

Wow..... I thought my wife and I were going to have a great day. We live in Savannah Ga. And drove over 2 and half hrs to play this course and then have a nice dinner at California Dreaming.
Dropped my bag off and went in the pro shop to get started, mind you I booked on Golf Now. The associate was so rude and had a terrible disposition. I should of done my homework first, because he rudely said, you have to pay for your wife to ride. Did not say how much or nothing. I paid and met the starter. He was a nice guy. Little did I know they had a tournament that day and was playing behind them. I had a walking twosome behind me and I allowed them to hit off with me. First couple off holes were fine and then it was jammed up. I saw the beverage cart once on the course, never came to us, she lost an easy 100 dollars. My wife was looking for some great drinks and food. Too bad. Overall course was descent, over rated and I'm sure glad I didn't hit in to the wedding party on 18. I feel you should take some ettique lessons from Savannah Harbor were I just played last week. First class!!!!! The associate in the pro shop super NICE, not a rude, no personality bump on the log like you have employeed there. Will not recommend or will EVER be back. I'd rather play a goat ranch!!!

Lake Calder

Course has received a lot of rain prior to me playing, hole #1 still a lake in front of tee box. Some greens being worked on, still a few wet areas on course.Hole #2 really wet.It's nice to see some work putting in to course.Will be a lot better when dried out. I like the course because your never rushed. Great day to really dial in some golf shots. Always enjoy threading the oaks off the blue tees on 1 and 10. Staff ALWAYS great to talk to. GN deal couldn't pass up. Great course to work on your game. Looks like there growing in a new practice putting green.

Nice day

Nice golf day. Tee to green in good shape, sand traps need a little work. If you play here you know about the cart paths or lack there of. I've learned to navigate around them. Stay out of the rough and you'll have a good round. Great course for a beginner or bogey golfer. Great roll in fairway after a nice pop!!! Got a great deal on GN... Couldn't pass up. Be back soon.

Unfortunate

Greens were in rough shape. Looks like they were painted with the blue dye. Not very well at that. Sand traps not maintained. Cart paths rough. After I finished number 9, a foursome that just got done with lunch jumped to 10 in front of me. Play in front of them slow.
No interaction with staff except for pro shop associate. Nice guy....
