A little dark, but black bear in a dark tree, hole # 6...appropriate for Black Bear Golf Club! Photo submitted by relivgolfers on 09/29/2013
Slow But Nice
Play was slow, greens slow but course conditions are otherwise v. good.
Had a good time
The tract was in excellent shape although I I got beaten up I really enjoyed my self just need to focus more next time
My Favorite Course
Best course in the area by far. Open fairways but challenging hills and elevated greens. Course is ALWAYS in really good condition. A must play
Decent course, almost all elevated greens, so can't afford to miss the green. Greens are fun with lots of undulations. I wouldn't say this course is anything extremely special but it was a fun day. Somewhere in the 6.5-7 out of 10 range. Would play again
Beautiful Course
Only drawback today was slow pace of play. But it was Saturday and perfect weather, so that was expected. Four and a half hours. Otherwise, beautiful course. Perfect condition from tee to green on all 18. Challenging pin placements. Will definitely play this one again.
Great fun
Good highlands style layout. Greens are in excellent condition. Sand is Very Difficult I will play here again soon
Wide fairways and small greens
Great course. The course is challenging and playable for all level of golfer. The course favors a high ball hitter due to the elevated greens that lack depth. Several flags were placed in areas that were no more than 10 paces deep. A wayward approach will leave you a treacherous putt or chip based on the slopes on the greens. The fairways are generous but be sure to pay attention to the fairway bunkers because they are in play off the tees. Some of the bunkers need some maintenance, but avoiding them eliminates the issue. The greens were firm and rolled true, but were a little slower than normal. Overall Black Bear is an excellent course and a great value.
Great day at golf
We were pleasantly surprised about this course, it was in very good shape, and the perfect place for my wife to play with me since she doesn’t play alot, very few water carry holes which was good for her, but still plenty of trouble for me to hit into, lots of bunkers, the course in great shape, fairways were very nice, few spots here and there but overall nice, greens rolled well, we enjoyed the course
Greens were ridiculously small and challenging. A fun tough challenge.
Black Bear coming into Form
This is honestly the best Black Bear has been since the new owners took it over. Other than a few tee boxes having some aeration done the course is near mint tee to green.
Enjoy.
Bordering on Great!
Punched tee boxes, some over-sanded, but doesn't really affect play. Greens are thick, consistent, but a little slower than I like. Evidence of lots of fertilizer recently applied.
course is in good shape - another few weeks it should be fabulous.
Great condition!
The tee boxes where punched but it did not effect the play, fairways and green were in great condition.
Staff was friendly and the pace of play was not an issue.
Love Black Bear!
Love this course and always in great shape.....yesterday was no exception....really nice conditions and greens rolling well!
Greatest greens around at this time!
Fast challenging greens and amazing elevation changes.
Enjoyable Round and Nice Restaurant
Overall the course is in great shape and the layout is tough but forgiving. Greens may be the toughest part of the course unless you hit too many bunkers. Nachos and brews afterwards were very good so all in all it was a great day!
