Hickory Stick Golf Club

This used to be a nice course. The maintenance has gotten very poor. The bunkers are awful. The grass is not cut often enough. The greens are to fast for the size and shape.

Overall...this is a $20 course now. At $40 regular price and $30 twilight there are better places to play.

Keep it in the fairway and you'll be fine. The rough, however, is another story. If you find yourself in the thick rough, best to just get the ball back in play. Don't try to be a hero. Greens were excellent and the ball did what you asked it to do. Bunkers are in bad shape due to recent flooding, so if you find yourself in a bad one, take a drop.

It’s the one course I would consider getting a membership at. I prefer to play different courses throughout the summer. But, if I were to pay for a membership somewhere. This would be the place. It’s just the perfect challenge. Par 3’s are great. Back is a little tougher than the front.

My 1 suggestion would be to stretch the 5th hole tee box back 50yards and make it a par 5. Making it a par 72

I’ve played Hickory Stick several times and it never disappoints. The course is always in fantastic condition; the staff is always helpful and friendly. I would recommmend Hickory Stick to anyone without hesitation.

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

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.

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 .

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.

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!

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 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.

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!

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.

Great shape for middle of October! Fast play! Staff friendly!

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.

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?
