Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club - Panther/Bobcat Course

We have booked this course two times. Both times we have arrived 15 to 20 minutes early and been rushed onto the course and told that there is a tournament following us. We had to do four holes by a certain time. I like the course but I felt like every time I arrive there it was a rush even though we are early. Paul and Becky.

Fairways were in great condition. Greens where in great conditioning with challenging hole placements. We were sent out in front of a group of 30 and we did not no the course at all so it was a little challenge to stay ahead of them. Overall, it was a great course.

When I went to the PRO SHOP to ck in the guy that checked me in made a deal (in front of another golfer)about the fact that I did not pay the course any money . I said to him that the course must get something from golfnow or they would not use them he said "we don't get anything from golfnow " I then went out to play feeling bad . Not sure how it works but this is the only time that I have been told this by any pro shop person ! The course was ok !

We booked a 12:45 tee time / got to the course early - hit a medium bucket of balls ($7.50) / putted around on the practice putting green and started play at the designated time with the starter on hand to monitor things - Course was in good shape for this time of year - Water hazards came into play on many holes but quite manageable - Weather was awesome - After our round we stopped into the onsite restaurant for a couple of cool beverages and a quick bite ($2.50 beer/$1.00 drink and $5.00 chicken fingers) Will most certainly be back - We had a great afternoon !

I love the layout at Silverthorn. There are very challenging holes and a great variety of dog legs and risk/reward opportunities. I remember playing it 25 years ago when it was immaculatley maintained. I wish I could saty that now. I have played it 4 or 5 times in the past year and keep going back becasue of the layout and the price. However in all the times that I have played it recently, I have yet to see a golf maintanance worker on the course. The bunkers are never raked, the fairways are sparse,, the collars and aprons are terrible, the tee boxes are average on a good day and the greens, normally good are showing some wear lately. I wish they would spent some money on grass seed and fertilizer. Those two items alone would greatly improve the experience.

considering the time of year, with dry fairways, the greens were true & green

Poor weather but still able to golf. Nice course and friendly staff.

First time playing the course. Wife and I teamed up with two people who have played the course before. That really helped as there is trouble in key areas of the course. My wife really enjoyed playing as the red tee’s did get some great placements to shorten when needed and take “some” of the water out of play. We put this course on our lists of play again!!

We made a mistake playing that day. It was cold and wet so I can’t really give a fair opinion of the course. The staff was very friendly.

was a cold, windy day. Allowed to tee off early. Front 9 greens are mostly small and significant slope. Played white tees but course has two more shorter sets. Lots of room on most fairways but some require a proper lay-up to avoid hazards. Great value for our money.

I've played this course a few times and its has some great greens (some quite large) and there are a few places that you need to play to a layup but over all if you are near there I would say play it !

Definitely recommend. The shooting range nearby was distracting but made play interesting.
