Needs tender loving care

Dothan National’s overall playing conditions were quite poor. Greens were very shaggy, and on some lacked grass. The greens did not roll true, often pin-balling. Tee boxes were poorly maintained. The fairways were in need of good watering, more grass. Carts need to be replaced. The seats had major holes and rips in them. The course design was fine, but with all of these other issues it impacts the game of golf.

Dothan National Golf Course Review

The condition of the fairways excellent. They had been recently mowed and it was easy me at 75, bad eyes and all, to locate my golf ball., except for the one I hit into the water! They were working on grass improvement on a couple of greens, so you know they care about the course. They love veterans there-- got aa free basket of golf balls to hit before my round stated! The price is play is more than fair for the excellent condition of the course. I will definitely come back to take another crack at it!

Front Nine poor, Back nine better

The greens of the front nine were pretty poor, looked like suffferedfrom summer heat/lack of rain.

Back nine was markedly better.

Rough and fairway cut at same hieght. No advantage being in fairway but then again rough wasn’t punishing.

Decent value for the money thu.

Proshop/bar ver friendly as was pn course staff.
