Stepping up their game

You can tell the management of Birkdale has been putting money into the course. New carts, lush green fairways, smoothed cart path bumps(not all but the bad ones) and the greens...the greens were rolling true for the first time in years...and that was with a recent aeration. Was told the course has a green roller now. I can’t wait to return to see the greens once they fill in!

Good condition

The fairways have been overseeded and very nice to hit off from. The greens are in good condition for the first of April. The white tee boxes are somewhat beat up but playable. Overall it is in good condition. Pace of play was great since it was Easter morning. We finished in 4 hours which is great for a public course

I enjoy this course - the diversity in the layout, the degree of difficulty is just about right for me (10-12 handicap. I mix the blue and white tees depending on the distance.

Pace of play can be slow - I like to play "ready-golf" makes everyone's experience more satisfying.

Course is in fairly good condition for Feb/March

Course is challenging.

Enjoyed playing. Met a very friendly gentleman to play with. Ease of an out of town player setting up a round was great.

Pretty Good Deal

Played the black tees and enjoyed the layout. Most holes have good shape, with fairway bunkers and a few water hazards. However, some holes have some poor design features IMHO, such as #9 and #11 which both have very large trees that block approach shots from the center or right side of the fairway (makes no sense to me). Hole #17 had a HUGE area of ground under repair right in front of the green (I'm sure this will be fixed once warmer weather comes).

I was disappointed to see they did not allow separate carts during COVID and did not have dividers. I decided to walk for this reason even though the deal included cart fee and I WOULD NOT walk this course again. There are a few lengthy walks between holes and some steep hills (the walk between #9 green and #10 tee about killed me, trying to keep up with the rest of my group who all rode).

All that said, I will definitely keep this course in my rotation of public courses to play...but only as a course to get a cart when playing.
