Mike Hatch is not a golfer, he is a business man.

Mike owns it so it is his to do with what he wants, but he has ruined this course. Took all the aesthetics out, most of the bunkers and the course's defenses. All so they can have foursome after foursome, all day long every day.

50 some bunkers taken out, some holes with no hazards at all. That isn't golf. It is a shame. If you are a hacker, this is your course. If you appreciate a challenge, this is not it. At all.

World class driving range. What golfer of any skill gives a crap about that? Might as well say the clubhouse has new furniture.

And yep, I am a member. Not for much longer, I am afraid.

Fit for summer play...

Greta conditions...good pace....greens rolling beautiful...my group (3) was stuck behind what looked like a playing lesson but they let us pass thru on the first part 3...started on 10 probably bc hole 9 is a better finishing hole and I agree...a fair golf challenge with lots of room everywhere for misses

Good value

First time playing here. There are several holes with temporary tees set up. A bit annoying but necessary for tee block rehabilitation. Otherwise the greens were fast and in pretty good shape. Fairways are well maintained and the sand traps were all freshly raked after overnight rain. Great value and would recommend. No marshal or starter that I saw so pace of play is going to vary greatly depending on who is on the course.

Birkdale 5/2026

Course in good shape. Pro shop staff are great. Greens true but were not fast at all on this day. Slow play continues to be the only drag. Round approx 5 hours, waiting on most tees and second shots. Recommend adding a minute between tee times or raising prices.

Solid public course.

Nice course. Greens were in great shape. Layout has several blind shots, which is not my preference.

Course wonderful , pace not so

Course is in great shape. Greens outstanding. Tee boxes really improved. Range was in great shape. Staff is professional and friendly. Overall terrific experience with one exception.........pace of play and continual back up on known nemesis holes needs staff assistance and course management. But overall a bargain.
