Pipestone Golf Club
About
Pipestone Golf Course is an Arthur Hills design that has been acclaimed as the best public course in the Dayton area. The name of the course comes from blue clay soil that is buried deep in the ground. The native Indians of the area would use it for making pottery and they would call it pipestone. Nestled amongst rolling hills, the golf course offers plenty of elevation changes. The undulating greens and fairways are kept in immaculate condition but they rarely offer a flat lie. The front nine is particularly challenging with several holes that are framed with tress and crisscross over the same creek. Pipestone Golf Course's second hole is one of the toughest with a water hazards and a fairway that is severely sloped right to left.

Thanksgiving Day Before
Went out around 9. It warmed up and was wide open. Course had a few green spots left. Played soft.
I've been playing here for 15 years. When it softens up it is much easier. Shot a 78.
Going to play this week if it warms up again.
A good course with some tricked up holes
I've played this course many times before and it is fun to play even though it has a few tricked up holes, the 2nd and 18th are examples.
But, this time our tee time was placed just after an outing. Play was extremely slow. The course management should warn you when you are booking a tee time that it is just after an outing. It took 40 minutes to play one hole, which is completely ridiculous! It was an almost 6 hour round!
Great course
Just airified and that was a challenge however the rest of the course is in great shape as always.
Excellent experience.
Played back 9 twice as front 9 greens were being aerated today. Very challenging course. Only played here twice in 2012 but plan to play here more often. Pro shop staff and starters / marshals were very friendly and helpful.
