backed up bow creek

i rarely ride but did so yesterday. pace pf play was fine until the back 9. totally stopped after 13 waiting to get going again. a high school match was going on and slow players were not letting faster players play through. all that. being said i've played there since 82 and hope they keep it open through october. haven't seen it backed up like that for some time now.

getting near the end

it's apparent that due to the closing they are doing nothing more than cutting the grass in the fairways. the greens were chopped up but at least they were watered to keep playable. been playing here since 1982 and i's tough to see. fixed plenty of ball marks today that were not mine

goose droppings and no water

goose droppings on 11,13,and 18 made it tough to putt. had to move my ball on 18 to get an open space to putt at the hole. it was 68 degrees out there and the water container on 17 was empty. gotta do better than that. i told the young man in the pro shop about the droppings and he was indifferent.

hot july day on the front 9

good to see greens and tee boxes being watered. fairways were all green and playing hard and fast. not crazy about what they have done with #3 but that's out of their control. the young man in the pro shop was very nice and helpful. couldn't of been nicer

hot june day on the back 9

recent rains perked the greens up. some tee boxes very shoddy looking. asked the young man in the pro shop why i couldn't start on 1 and didn't get much of an answer. enjoy playing there but tired of the back 9.

A Beautiful June Day At The Creek

They started me on 10 which was surprising, and the gentleman in the pro shop told me 3 was now a par 3. Playing hard and fast, and didn't see a sprinkler greenside come on the whole time i was playing. Ball marks on greens not repaired

Typical Mid April

greens were ok. grass was beginning to come in and turn color. it was wet out there but not impossible. the staff made me wait on 9 for a single in a cart to hit ahead of me when he had no rights. kind of put a damper on my round

A Beautiful Fall Day

A beautiful day to play golf. High 50's, just enough wind, sunny, trees turning color. The greens were perfect, still enough green grass in the fairways, and despite all the recent rain, the course was not soggy at all. The only complaint that I might of had was the bunkers had not had water pumped out. Perfect conditions for middle November.

Peak season conditions for Bow Creek

good shape for august. greens were good, fairways were green and lush, tee boxes were good. due to recent rains was a little soggy, and the only complaints were slow players not giving way to faster players, and no one repairing divots on greens. some ball marks were as big as quarters. much better conditions than in late june.

gone downhill

the course is in bad shape. a lot of the greens were burned up, the fairways were not cut, and the greens that were puttable were high and bumpy. I know that they have sprinklers, the day I was out there no water came on at all. if I didn't know any better you would think the place is going out of business.

hit it straight or your dead

very wet conditions, after every shot your ball had mud on it. for a course that was once supposed to be private, it looks like a muni more than ever - weeds in the fairways, hard sand in the bunkers, and the tee boxes were hideous. the only great thing was that the greens were in very good shape, soft and the putts rolled true. other players need to fix ball marks on greens. all that being said, i rode 18 for $ 20.00, can't beat that.
