The Longbow Golf Club offers 18 holes of par-71 golf that measures 7,050 yards from the Black tees.

A round of golf at the Longbow Golf Club kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which measures 451 yards from the tips. The back nine kicks off on the monstrous 10th hole, a par 5 that comes in at 626 yards from the tips.

Fresh out of OS

Course was good considering our brutal summer with no rain. Any courses in the valley that can maintain summer grass and get prepped for winter overseed, kudos to all the courses. I like longbow and enjoy playing there. Will be back again before the AGA 2 man in a few weeks and I’m sure speeds will pick up, good work!

Fresh overseed

Course and amenities are great, but after playing it when it's in top condition, you tend to expect that from the course. Fun layout, good practice area, friendly staff, just long grass in the fairways and almost a full shag carpet on the greens. Once they get the fur trimmed up it'll make Longbow great again! Sorry, couldn't help it.

overall it was nice

Greens were still Very slow, probably a 3-4 on the stemp but we all had to deal with it. Beautiful course though and it will be awesome when the greens get faster and you're off cart paths

Course in very golf shape. Cart Path Only conditions. Extremely slow greens. Hopefully this will be addressed soon, given that new grass is becoming established.

Green speed a 5. Range open delayed

Slowest greens I’ve ever played. I was warned in the clubhouse but impossible to reach the pin on putts over 30 feet. On Mondays and Thursday’s, the range is closed for maintenance until ~9am. I’ve never heard or seen this in 50 years of golfing.

One of my favorites

Fairways and tee boxes and traps in great shape. Greens are slow because of overseeing. They will be better in a week or so. Nevertheless putting is smooth but slower than normal. Staff is very good.

Visually appealing traps and undulations

Course just opened after overseeding -- grass was already in good shape. Greens were very slow but I like banging the ball at the cup.

Great course, awful pace of play

The course was very enjoyable to play, excellent layout and views on each hole. The greens were very slow after over-seeding but in very good condition. The pace of play ruined the round. Even after speaking to a Longbow employee about the issue, we were three groups behind on every hole. We waited 20 minutes on each shot and even had the group behind hitting drives into us while waiting for the greens to clear from the back up we were stuck behind.

Golf Now needs to provide more information about course conditions

Golf Now needs to advise that courses were just over seeded and running 5 on the Stimpmeter. This course is a great value but we simply would not have played it today if we had known. This review is really about Golf Now and not Longbow.

2 days before overseed

Most of course was brown due to overseed starting on Monday. With course in this shape it was disappointing that rates had recently gone up. In general pace was good, just disappointing conditions for the price.

Ready for reseed

The layout is fun. The greens were in good shape

With a full week to go until reseed closure I was surprised all fairways were cut down and browned out for reseed. And the equipment was running throigh fairways some without much respect for golfers trying to play around them. Dust and dry grass was blown right at us.

Sand in traps was hard.

Unfortunately they were thatching the course today as most of the fairways are dried up in preparation for seeding.

Dirt Coarse

This is a great course when it’s maintained, but the only thing in a moderate condition were the greens. The tee boxes were hard, the fairways were completely dried out and brown, and the bunkers had no sand. I get that they’re preparing to plant the winter grass but then they shouldn’t have been charging $70 to let people play on dirt when that’s the same price they were charging for the maintained course.

Course Dried Out

This looks like it could be a very nice course during another time of the year, but today the fairways were all brown and hard. The greens were mostly green but incredibly hard and fast. Disappointed to pay this much when conditions were so mediocre. Would like to play this course again when the fairways were green and the greens would hold a high approach shot.

Definitely a fun little track, bunkers had no sand and fairways are dead but still very enjoyable. Looking forward to come back after re-seeding.
