Bunkers are gone need some work, greens for 1/27 where in great shape, fairways hold water but playable in most areas, cart were on paths but expected from rain prior day
A Links Test
This is a really good golf course unless you like trees. Open, generally windy with large undulating greens that will test your putting as well as chips to. The fairways are generally wide and accessible with fairway bunkers that resemble those on an Irish Links. Even in January the greens were reasonably quick. And added bonus, its fairly easy to find a wayward shot here and there isn't a lot of heavy vegetation just off the fairways. Recommend this to you. The 3 finishing holes provide a stern test with plenty of water.
Waste of time and money
I made tee times for 16 guys which I had done on other occasions at this course. When we get there they tell us that they had just aerated the greens on the front and were going to do the the back that day. Because of this the back was closed. Well trying a course that would take 16 people on a moments notice was not an option. We decided to play the front twice. The greens had been punched but the sand was laying around in piles. Needless to say, paying full senior rates for a piece of crap like this was the last straw. On top of that they never started aerating the back nine because they didn't have enough help show up. Will schedule our golf group there again. We will take our 450 to 500 dollars elsewhere.
The course was in less than ideal condition . Fairways were wet and greens were just aerated. I've played here several times and this was by far the worst .
Fun course, but overpriced
I played out at Hickory Stick on Sunday, September 3rd. Hickory Stick has always been one of my favorite courses to play. The layout is great and the greens always seems to be in great shape. My biggest problem with the course are the bunkers. I've never seen bunkers like this before at a course that is charging $50 to play. No sand whatsoever. Fairways and greens were still in great shape except for a few little spots, but I expect that this time of year. No issues with that at all. It was still a great day of golf. I will still go back and play there. I hope they plan on fixing the bunkers for next season.
Great Course!
Hickory Stick is one of my favorite courses to play in Southern Indiana. I chose to play the tips this time around, which makes it a completely different course. I have never played this course and been disappointed. The clubhouse staff isn't always the friendliest to those that aren't regulars or members, but the course makes up for that. I HIGHLY recommend Hickory Stick to golfers of all ages and abilities. They offer 4 different sets of tee boxes to accommodate all skill levels. Enjoy!
Oasis
The course looked spectacular upon arrival. The area was very dry and so was the course. We were held up at number 10 for about 20 minutes. I would love to go play it again when the area has received some rain
Great Day
Great course. Staff was overly accommodating. Most courses in area were reduced to cart path only due to rain issues all week. This course drains extremely well. They were able to accommodate our group of 16 at the last minute. Fantastic course and outstanding professional staff. We will be back again next time we are in the Indy area. Hidden gem as it does not get the same publicity as courses on the northside of Indy.
awesome
My round at Hickory was awesome. One of my favorite courses to play in the city. I shot a 67, the course was in great shape. not wet at all. drains really well. If you have a chance to play definitely do!
Great course
I just can't brag enough on this course. The whole place is beautiful, and they do a great job keeping it up. I have played courses all over Indiana and Hickory Stick is definitely top 3 on my list. Great value for a Golf Now deal.
Greatpubli cource!
Great shape for middle of October! Fast play! Staff friendly!
Beautiful course
First time we played this course and would go back in a minute. Great course, loved the links style and the various challenges throughout. Only one 'bathroom' on course and it was on the back nine which is bummer, but definitely the only drawback.
excellent course
The course was a very good value but the guy at the desk gave me a bad time about the fact that I forgot my reservation number. Why?
Excellent choice
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were lightning fast fairways were firm. Difficult to hold shots into the green Needed to run your shots up onto the greens. I will definitely return to play again
Fun experience
This is an excellent course with varying challenges. While the fairways are wide open and it's a challenge in itself to lose a golf ball, the traps and greens test your will (and your talent). Clever hazard locations and smaller than average greens make for difficult iron shots, and a challenging green will test your putting skills, but overall the course doesn't leave you feeling in over your head. This course is in great condition, and is maintained very well, but you certainly pay for it. Would definitely go again, but likely not for awhile.
Good Time However.....
We played as a foursome and although only novice golfers, we played at a pretty good pace. However, the foursome in front of us was extremely slow. At times they would spend upwards of 10 mins looking for their lost balls.
Excellent condition
Played on a Friday afternoon. Pace of play was very good. Greens were in excellent condition
