Rating 71.5

The Grizzly Course is a collaboration between Jack Nicklaus and Desmond Muirhead. Since opening in 1972, this challenging layout has been host to numerous PGA, LPGA, and Senior PGA events. The golf course features long, curvy fairways lined with towering trees and there are strategically placed bunkers throughout. The three final holes feature water hazards, which are also accompanied by a difficult array of bunkers. It offers a fair amount of difficult holes but overall the course is playable for a range of skill levels, which is why it is an appealing layout for tournaments. In addition to the two courses, the Golf Center also boasts an 11,000-square foot putting green and an Academy Course with four championship holes.

Also known as The City of Mason Golf Center - Grizzly Course.

Winter golf

I really enjoy playing the Grizzly. Today was tougher than normal as the weather was cold and super windy. Playing December 23 so the greens were not cut and the course hadn’t been maintained. Very well. But, this is expected this time of the year. Otherwise, great fun

Windy day

It was a windy day. This course offers a few challenges without the wind. The trees are mature and force accurate placement on some holes. the rough is long and has many leaves to hide an errant shot. Mason resident save $5 per round.

Fair course, slow greens

Tee boxes ok, fairways were good. Because of recent rain no real roll but in good enough shape to work shots. Rough was thick, DEFINITELY KEEP IT STRAIGHT.

Greens were slow and inconsistent, likely due to aeration a few weeks ago. If the weather is good for the next few weeks they'll be faster.
