Old Farts Best Ball

Us over 80 gang try and get out once a week and play best ball. This week we had 5 birdies on the front 9 and 1 birds on the back . It was a great day for golf and the course is in pretty good condition. Recommend this course and best ball play for seasoned golfers who just want to get for a little exercise and share new jokes.

Needs a marshal

This course needs a marshal. Got behind a slow foursome the whole day. Otherwise I liked the course and the cart girl came around often

Old timers

Us over 80 golfers try and get out and play a round of best ball once a week if doctor's visits permits. This course with the Golf Now discount makes it ideal. The course stays in pretty good condition, fairways and greens.

Good course for the money!

Good course forthe money. Pace of play was slower than I would have liked, but 4.5 hrs wasn't too bad. Plenty of shade at nearly every tee box. That was a big plus. Catt girl came by frequently. I'd definitely play again.

Just Us

We try and play a best ball game once a week. This course is well suited for our game. We normally score under par which makes us want to return the next week. Recommend this course and type of play for season golfers

PL Panhacker Golf

Many courses on the Panhandle. FWB is the public option. Good bones with lots of oaks (!) hanging over the fairways - which are in good shape. The rest, not so much. Tee boxes uneven and chopped up. Greens are poor: slow, sandy and bumpy. I guess they aren't over last month's aeration. (But I couldn't see this because GolfNow moved their reviews to GolfPass but didn't tell anyone. Even a chat rep didn't point me to GolfPass.)

Pace is also poor. Took an hour for 2st three holes. Marshal apologized twice for the slow play. Uh, lawman do your duty? It picked up some later, but...

Problem is the public option brings out the hackers, some of whom have no business on a golf course. Bad play plus poor etiquette. Three balls off the tee and not one in play?

Front nine does not return to club house. Drink carts were frequent though. Range is mats.

Do not recommend until the greens and pace improve.

Starter unprofessional

We had a foursome and rented a spectator cart for my uncle who has a terminal disease. We played a scramble format but had my uncle putt with us so he could enjoy his last tournament. This starter was rude, unprofessional, and followed us on 4 straight holes hiding behind trees. The group in front of us alerted him who happened to be local members. I never try to unprofessional to anyone but this guy is using his authority in the wrong manner. Nothing will ever be done to change people like that but my uncle was trying to enjoy a golf event with a putter.

Greens Recenly Punched

There was no forewarning about the fairways and greens being punched when I made my reservation nor when I checked in at the pro shop. 😡 The pace of play was great until we started the back nine and then it was painfully slow through 18. The price on GN was lower than normal so that should have been a clue that the course (Oaks) was still “healing.” The weather was fantastic and it was still better than sitting at home watching golf on tv. I expect the course will be much improved in a couple weeks.
