Pricey for what it is
Traps need some work. Mid 20s would be fairer for this course as apposed to mid 30s. Having said that the course was packed. It could be mid 30s are the new mid 20s
My round
It’s really not a bad course. I enjoyed it. But glad I had my discounted round!! Great place to play and practice
Course was in good shape.
Greens are nice
Tees okay
Not the best round
Hadn't played at this course in years and it was wet and muddy in spots, but had been a somewhat rainy week. Didn't play well at all, but part of the problem was we were paired with another couple - very chatty and I prefer not so much chatter when I'm playing, unless I know the person well. We saw plenty of twosomes out there so not sure why we were paired up. Ended up only playing 9 holes because the pace was slow, too.
March swamp July swamp
Went in March figured give the course another shot in July. Swamp fairways in July. Also make sure you land in the fairways the cut is thick, think Danny D thick. This course is the definition of take your medicine course just get it back on the fairways unless they are a swamp. Honestly it's a nice course but drainage is an issue. If the middle of fairways are considered water hazards and you can't cheat out into the rough a little just accept it.
Not again
Other players rude, staff questioned age of golfers in rude manor.
West Seneca Jim
Pace of play was very slow due in part because there was no starter and groups of one or two walkers were intermixed with groups foursomes in carts. A suggestion would be start walking golfers off the front nine and golfers in carts off the 10th hole.
Finally, excellent greens
The last time I played here was 3 or 4 years ago and the greens were so bad (ridiculously slow) I simply picked up when I reached the green. A new company took over a few years ago and the improvement with the greens is almost unbelievable. They are in great condition, almost perfect speed and very true. Also, there is now sand in the bunkers. This course is wide open (not many trees and no water), but they have made the fairways very narrow and left the rough very long. And it is plenty long for the average amateur. All in all, a welcome improvement to the collection of enjoyable public courses in the area.
Fun course
The course was wet as expected for April golf. Rate was raised $5 from quoted price on GolfNow app
Amherst could do better
I only started playing this course 8-9 years ago so that I don’t half to drive a half hour out to Akron to golf. The course has several holes like 4, 8,14 and 17. Their staff is very friendly and I know they are really trying but the course needs better drainage and faster greens.
SLOW!!
Can’t recommend this course. Pace of play was abysmal. It took 2.5 hours for my son and I to play the front 9.
Golf course in Amherst
This course was mediocre at best! Hard to tell where the fairways end and the rough begins! The starter guy was awesome! Very personable and kept things moving. The cashier was also very nice.
This course could be so much better with a little TLC. Spend a few bucks on some weed and feed for goodness sake!!
Most open course on the planet
But unfortunately it seemed so easy and open it lulled me to sleep
