Woods/Pines at Tri Cities Golf Course

I’m from Florida so playing of course like this is tremendously unique to me. I thought all the conditions were good. The rough was a little deep and it was difficult to find a ball unless you were looking straight down on it but that may just be the way it is in Tennessee. I would recommend it. It’s not an easy course by any means but it’s fun.

Fairways weren’t too bad but the greens were pretty bad.

Staff has always been top notch. Super friendly even when my idiot friend went to the wrong course. Fairways have always been nice and the best shape I’ve seen aerated greens during that season. If you’ve played this area, you know some courses will trash the greens, they do the best at keeping them playable.

Springtime, greens just aerated reason for the fair rating of course conditions.

So I have been playing at Tri-Cities for years and its just always been a convenient place to show up and play. The staff and maintenance guys are always friendly and greet you with a smile. However, today was the day that I needed to post the negative things about this establishment since it has spiraled the last few years. For all the money you pay to play, over and over one would expect some type of return. Nice fairways, greens, and tee boxes. I understand its early in the season but unfortunately they will never produce at Tri-Cities golf course. The maintenance guys are always trying to do what they can but when a company doesn't invest for equipment and items needed to make it better, the place with never get better. And if those guys had the tools to make things better, it still wouldn't. The course doesnt have a ranger to enforce any kind of etiquette or rules. Today must have been senior citizen day or something. I watched probably more than seven groups of five plus people bottle neck the course up. On top of that, the seniors would pull their carts up on the green fringes, drive on the tee boxes, and had zero etiquette to allow others to play through. It was like a sense of entitlement. I believe if Tri-Cities would put some type of investment into their course it would have a return. Until then, if you like sub par fairways, greens, and dealing with large groups holding the course up then this is place for you. Just be sure to pack a few extra beers to get you through the day because your patience will be tested.

For March the course was good. Alot of grounds work going on getting ready for spring. I would always recommend this course.
