The Creek Course
Course is In really nice shape. The greens are hard but very fair.
JIFFY
Well I went back to find out about the new greens the state installed for the course.
The greens are coming, but its the first real growth time of the season. You would think after spending thousands of dollars to finally get grass on the greens, they could spend money on someone to take care of them. You can tell that the staff does not care to water properly and knows how to run there greens mowers. Training is all that is required to make this new style grass do its job. You have to take care of it early so it has a chance to thrive for the amount of play that this course could get if done right.
I wish the best of luck with the course I really think it could be really profitable if just a little incentive would be provided.
Decent course for the cost
The course had new greens installed and they are firm as the pro shop warned
Pretty good for mid march
Still need to smooth out a little
Course was playing hard and fast on fairways
Almost impossible to keep the ball on 2nd green from left hand side of fairway
Little wet around the greens which was frustrating with balls stopping if 1 yard short and then bounces 10 yards if hit the greens
Course is quite hard and tight but last few holes are easier..
I had no idea the 16th was a par 5
Thought it was par 4..
They had sand for divots which is good
Tees are quite beat up and uneven
The teeing areas are perhaps too small
Will come back
Still not nearly as good as arrowhead
Greens needs more attention
Course is a good course. Greens need more attention they are very bumpy and needs to finish coming in and rolled to smooth out.
Nice course but over booked
Nice course but over booked, same as title, I’ll come back soon.
Greens still filling in
New Greens still filling in. Always an enjoyable time.
New Greens
Greens are improving
Still bumpy but getting better every month
Lot of work being done allover
Tee boxes has some work to do
Add some topsoil to them
Trees are being cleared to get more sun and air around greens and tee-boxes
This summer the course will be great to play
New Greens
They are no better than old ones.
Recommendation: Place sand boxes on Par-3 tee boxes
to repair devots.
New Greens.
New Greens are very appealing.
Green fees have increased. I don’t like.
The tee boxes still need improvement.
Suggestion: why not place “sand boxes with a scoop” on each of par-3 tee boxes. (They are in a terrible condition.) Players do not run back to his/ her cart to bring sand to fill the divot he/she has just created. Makes sense?
Think about it!
