Should be better

This is a semiprivate country club, it should be better. On Sunday, no cart persons delivering hydration (it was 90+). The shack at the turn was not open. No water was available on the course.

Some greens has been punched, some had not. Some fairways were good, some burned, some water logged. Greens were in terrible shape. Frankly, no respect from the people playing them. Cant blame the course fully for that. Although, a marshall can enforce the rules if they are out and about.

I expected more from Buhl. I was considering joining, but after this round I dont think it is worth the cost.

Not quite worth the $

Played on the afternoon of club championship day so the staff advised of the tough pin locations. That was fun. They also advised of diseased greens on #1 & #12 but said the rest of the course was in good shape. That wasn’t entirely the case with plenty of subpar conditions on additional greens. Overall the rest of the course was in good shape, the staff was great across the board and the layout is solid. Just wasn’t quite worth the $75 price tag imo.

The good the bad and the ugly

This could be a great place to play. However there are some issues, both good and bad. The good being it was wide open both in terms of play and the course itself. It’s a pretty easy course to score. However, on a weekend, no cart girls, no shack open at the turn. This doesn’t make much sense for a club that charges essentially private non equity club level fees. Additionally some of the tee boxes and greens were experiencing some serious disease.

Solid Tom Bendelow Course

Solid old school Tom Bendelow golf course. Course is routed over flat terrain and has built up greens. Greens and bunkering were the highlight of the round.

Very good course conditions as it is part of a multiple country clubs. Solid course.
