Dumb computers!
They are more worried about your freakin pace of play vs making sure you take care of the course! 4 sand bottles at the start, all 4 empty!
Maybe worry about that more be those dumb monitors tellin us to hurry up! 4 hour and 29 minute round was more then acceptable play. Would have been quicker had we not had to chase down our digits for 18 holes.
Side note, starter could use a lesson or two on personality!
Course is in absolutely amazing shape, love coming here!
Green Speed and tee box maintenance
Always one of my favorite purses to play. I always have been impressed with the green speeds and condition of the course. This time, the green speeds were much slower than what what I have come to expect from Blackthorn. They also were redoing some of the tee boxes on the par 3’s. For $99 I would have expected better.
Nice course
Blackthorn is a great course. Excellent layout, very fast greens Always fun to play this course
Overall good
It was early in the season so it was just nice to get out. Just wasn’t the most ideal day to play and that was prob why they didn’t have all the stuff up and ready like normal.
Best in SB if you ask me
Favorite course in the area. Yes. Warren is nice but this has an interesting and fun layout. Some great risk reward holes and shots. Holes 12-18 are amazing. If you’re in new buffalo. Skip Whittaker and take the ride here. Worth the 40mins gets a lot of play so it’s a little beat up but what course isn’t right now
Hidden Gem
Was recommended this course by a local since I was coming from out of town. The greens were as pure as they come. Course conditions were phenomenal. Would 10000% play again. Great layout!
Blackthorn
Greens are very fast and pure! Excellent condition. The overall price was $15-20 too high but they are trying to compete with Notre Dame course prices. Of course, everywhere is over priced these days!
Goos course
Cpurse was in exceptional shape. Starter as usual was a bit rude. Club house staff were great. Snack bar hostess, attitude as usual. Pace of play front nine very good, back nine a threesome playing 5 balls. Overall good experience.
