Pittsburgh National Golf Club

It was cool until we made the turn ,they almost let two foursomes out in front of us who didn't play the front nine and then after that the Ranger hover over us and it wasn't cold

Still need to work on tee boxes and traps greens are much improved from past seasons

Greens always run true and its a nice layout they could stand to be less rude to paying customers there were 2 out of 7 employees i encountered who were pleasant

The course has some beautiful views looking down on fairways from elevated tee boxes. The Fairways are a little rough from the winter but should be coming in nicely in the next couple weeks. Purchased tee times through GolfNow not knowing it didn't include cart fees, the employee working the counter was going to charge us another $6 each ($24 foursome) to cover the additional charge, but a second employee insisted that we each pay another $16.50 ($66 foursome) which made our online price identical to the normal weekend rates. Won't be going back unless a friend insists on it, there are equally as nice and challenging courses for less money.

The greens were in great shape for being this early in the year and the course was a little wet from our recent weather but overall played very well. Some of the par 3's are long from the blue tees, as well as some of the approach shots when its wet.

Be careful when booking as some of the tee times available are for walking.

The overall conditions of the course has come a long way. In years past the up keep has gone down hill, but it looks like the new ownership is doing the right things to keep and get the course in top shape. I will definitely play the course a great deal more this year.

the grounds staff has done a great job since last year
the greens and bunkers were very playable even at this time of year

This course has a great layout. This was my second time playing it, it is a very fair course for the average golfer. The course was in average shape with the greens being in very good shape, holding well. Play was slow both times that I played, no attention paid to pace of play. Staff is friendly and no other complaints.

Always in decent condition. Food From restaurant is meh. Some really nice holes out there

Looks like a lot of skunk damage on the fairways. Had to use cartpath even when it didn't seem necessary. Course had some beautiful holes, and the greens were very good.

This course is in very poor condition, the fairways are torn up with many many bare spots. The greens were in fair to good condition but extremely hard, could not hold any shots. We got the impression that this course is on it's way out. For the price they charge and the condition it is in we will not be back.

Great value with GoldNow pricing. Would not pay asking rate for this course. Nice layout, but cart parts are a mess, and fairways need work as well. Very slow play for a Tuesday afternoon in September. Waiting on every hole, and quit after 14. With more attention to course management, this could be a great course. No better than average at this time

The staff was great from the start to our post round finish. The course was ok. But for the price it was a steal

Excellent golf course,beautiful layout would like to play again soon. I would recommend a golf cart for most golfers.

Having played as a member at Deer Run for many years from its conception the course has never been in great condition and from what I saw yesterday it is in poorer condition than when I played there as a menber. The tee boxes were in lousy shape and much to small, alot of crabgrass throughout the course and there was alot of turf ripped up by skunks looking for grubs. It was pretty clear that an application for grubs was not put down in order to conserve money. The new owners did a very nice job remodeling the clubhouse but it would have been much nicer to see that money being put into the golf course. The course is the reason that we all would go there. It is however a wonderful layout except for number 13, but that was a design problem and in my opinion that this hole would be much better served as an uphill par 3 from the ladies tees and of course a shorter teeing area for women.

Kudos to ownership and the greens superintendent … this club and restaurant has nicely evolved from a few short years back. Staff professionalism and demeanor are welcoming and appreciated. The course is fun, a few stout holes however course is attractively designed, fair in length and difficulty. From the back tees, the course is not demanding in length, but all clubs in the bag are used and scoring possibilities abound. Greens surfaces are good - moderate in speed, receptive, medium sized with plenty of undulations that require a measure of feel. New practice area that looked good however was not open this morning (why no chipping around the putting green?!?)
Two things that give pause - pace of play tends to be slow and no walking on weekend mornings. Glad to see it return to its early years.

Course is still not back to where it was a few years ago, but you can see they are working at it, making some improvements and trying to get the greens and fairways back in good shape. I will play it again as the layout is great.

Good price for money - course was in good shape and speed of play was above average - the staff were all nice

I feel this course is on the brink of being somthing special. However to many slanted or even tee boxes and i hate hitting down and up steep hills. However greens need rolled and they will play challenging.

My son and I played early in the morning on a Friday. I am from Florida so the layout was completely different that what I am used to. I thought the course was great. We were not held up at all during the whole round. The greens were fine, in fact the whole course was fine. I liked the grass much better than Florida. Hopefully on my next visit to Pittsburgh we will be able to play it again.
