comeback

the greens have made a comeback and were a nice surprise. the bunkers for some reasons were not raked that day which was surprising because this course is usually in excellent shape. the par 3's have yardage signs which did not appear to be updated from what my laser range finder displayed.

Best in Alabama

Farmlinks is the best public course in Alabama. Perfect conditions, fun golf course to play. If you go, play at least 36 and make it a full day of golf. Very ample driving areas in the fairways, very good second shot golf course. If your iron play is on song, you'll have a great time!

Farmlinks is an amazing course with breathtaking views. It's an awesome place to get away and take in all the scenario. The layout and course condition was very nice, the different types of turf are vey cool to experience and play on. Will definitely be scheduling another trip back.

Farmlinks

Wow. This course is unreal. I was on a trip playing on the RTJ and had an off day midweek and found this course on golf now. It was in just as good if not better shape than any of the RTJ courses. It's a very fair/forgiving course and the signature par 3 hole is fantastic. If I am ever in the area again I will definitely play here. Well worth the money and the drive.

Plan for 6 hour round

Been down this road before!! This was the third time I have tried to finish a round and wound up getting a rain check. The course and facilities are fantastic and would put it up against any course I have played. However, the lack of course marshalls not managing play time makes it very frustrating when you have a 2 oclock tee time "this time of year" and you can't finish the round.

Chilled apples makes the course even more enjoyable

FarmLinks is a clear 5 star golf course. For sure one of the best in Alabama. I played here for the second time. It was worth the drive. All was great. Tee boxes, fairways, greens and even some hazards are terrific. Signature hole is no. 5. Bring your camera and don't forget to taste the chilled apples!

I will always come back to this facility.

Nice course; must play.

After reading reviews, I booked a tee time with 2 friends and drove from Atlanta to play FarmLinks. It was well worth the drive. A very nice course, in great condition with stunning views (especially par 3's) and friendly staff. Fairways are generous but there are some areas of thick/unforgiving rough that could affect errant shots. Pace of play was somewhat slow because of a struggling foursome in front of us - and we didn't see them repair any ball marks on the greens. Unfortunately we did not see a course marshal. Overall, a great course.

Best Golf Course in the State

This is hands down the best golfing experience I have had! The staff was great! The practice facilities were top notch! The fairways were in perfect condition! The greens were large and in charge! They had chilled apples waiting for us at the beginning of 1 and 10! The holes were beautifully designed! The par 3 5th hole is the best single hole I have ever played! I have nothing bad to say about this course! I will definitely be back and cannot wait until that time comes! Thank you FarmLinks

Afternoon has no rules??

Farmlinks was in fantastic shape as always! However, there was a tournament in the morning and we teed off after tournament play. Because of the tourney, they squeezed in too many players for the afternoon! And to top it off, there were NO marshals! Thus, we encountered two different FIVESOMES! Unexpected for a quality course like FL! The result...5 hour round. Disappointed!

A Must Play

This was the best golf experience I have ever had. The course is in incredible condition, it has a few holes that are absolutely breathtaking, and the staff is as friendly as they come. The woman who worked the front desk on the day we went deserves to be complimented because she went out of her way to make sure we enjoyed our day. Hole 5 is unbelievable. Make sure you are prepared to spend time taking pictures if it's your first time at the course. I was able to play this course for $3 because of a coupon and a great deal and that may be the best deal in the history of golf because the course was much more enjoyable than Kiva Dunes which I played earlier in the month and paid nearly $100. I ended up spending a good bit in the pro shop because I appreciated the great deal, and they have nice things and good deals on some things sitting outside. You will not regret playing this course. I will be back even if I have to pay the normal $85 price. Bottom line is the course is immaculate, the technology in the carts is top line, the people are extremely friendly, and there are some holes you will never forget. Thanks Pursell Farms for a great experience for my friend and I, and I hope this post is great advertising for you guys because you deserve it.

Farmlinks is a Real Gem

With all the accolades Farmlinks has drawn, I had very high expectations, and I was not disappointed. The conditions are as good as I've ever seen in the Deep South during the mid-summer months. Keep in mind that the temperatures have been above 90 for more than a month now. And yet Farmlinks looked better than most places do in the heart of spring.

Even outside the conditions, the course was great fun to play. The fairways are wide, and the greens are large, but there are more than enough greenside bunkers to keep things interesting. You've also gotta be very careful to hit your levels on the greens, or else three-putting becomes a very real possibility. In short, the course is gettable, but it's not a gimme.

I hope I'm able to make it back very soon.

Great course even in the rain

I played here the first time and it is a great course for beginners and expert. The course is wide open it would be hard to lose a golf ball on most holes, but it's long enough to make it a challenge. The fairways and rough are in great shape I didn't have a bad lie all day, and the greens are very true the role perfect.

The only down side was we never came in for the rain and the weather had cleared just before we made the turn. So when we arrived at number 10 there were 4 groups waiting to tee off on the back, but the Marshall took us to 12 so we didn't have to wait.

This is a definit must play with great practice facilities, good staff, and great course that is very accepting
