Bad day

The first thing is this is a great layout dome really nice holes. The bad is the pace of play and the person in the proshop saying to me WE RUN THINGS YOU DDNT TELL US WHAT TO DO! I DONT HAVE TIME TO GO OUT AND SPEED UP PLAY I called in and said there was 2 holes open and the older golfers were taking a million practice swings and waiting for the green to clear before hitting. I wont ever be back Youhave been warned.

review

Early tee times ( at Silverthorn and most other courses ) make the tract more difficult because of the wet conditions and sun level. But the course was in fine condition...the greens were nearly perfect and the fairways nice and wide although some spots could use some attention ....and there is plenty of water and sand hazards that could catch a stray shot. Overall, a fun tract to play...looking forward to returning again someday soon.

They don’t care

From the very rude pro shop employee running the front desk to the lack of basic grounds keeping, this course is a 1 and done for me.

Fairways are worse that the ruffs at some muni’s and the “sand” traps feel like they haven’t been groomed in ages.

Course design was fun and wouldn’t have been overly challenging if well maintained.

Afternoon golf

Secrets out. The course is no longer empty Ayer noontime. It was one of the pleasures of golfing during the hottest part of the day, empty course. But as summer slides by I found myself behind at least 4 groups on the three holes ahead of me on the back nine. It took an hour on front nine & over two hours on back nine. Oh well. Course is still a pleasure to play at anytime.

review

Played from the white tees, nearly 5600 yards was a bit too long for this high handicapper. But the course was in fine condition, especially the large greens....the fairways were cut close but had spots of weeds and the rough was pretty high. Lots of water and sand could catch a stray shot. The highlight of my round was making a par in regulation on the par 5 finishing hole.....looking forward to returning again soon.....
