Dry & Fast
Greens were dry and extremely fast.
Great Greens
You need a little local knowledge to score well here. Very hilly and decent layout, but the greens make the course. Pro shop told me they installed "Champions" Bermuda six or seven years ago. Previous critique mentioned bare spots. Not so! They are immaculate for such heavy play.. Would go back in a heart beat, now that I have some inside knowledge.

great day on course, it was in good shape considering the lack of rain in the area.
Very nice track
The layout of this course is very good. But the condition is only average. Tee boxes were decent but I often had to hunt for a nice spot to tee off from. Greens rolled well but had issues in certain spots (dry, missing grass or damaged).
Overall it was fun and I'd go back for another round.
Great greens
Every aspect was great - supe Fast greens. No expensive shrubs - otherwise 4.5 stars
Time of day is important
Pace of play was great until the later afternoon hours (we started at 1pm as a 3-some). After we started the back 9 (after less than 2 hrs), we had 2 singles and then a 2-some quite anxious to speed through the course, so we let them through. At the 6th hole, yet another 2-some descended upon us, again, very anxious to rush through the course. As our play had already been delayed by letting the others through, we played out the course.
Great day at Bradshaw Farms!
Loved the overall layout and elevation changes. Nothing was "tricked up". Even had a beverage cart circling the course (on a Thursday!). Staff was GREAT and moved our tee time up for us when we got there early. Played the Red and White nines (there is also a Blue nine) and only issue was one tee box getting re-done on the White nine. Did not affect the integrity of the hole though. First time at BF, but I will definitely return!
Great Course
I would play this course again
Tough layout but beautiful course.
Greens are excellent, fairways good, but the traps are horrible. They need to downsize the traps and/or convert some to grass bunkers if they're not going to maintain them. Some traps had standing water, some were hard and unraked, some had good soft sand, and some had pea gravel mixed with sand. They all needed work! Pace of play was extremely slow, about 5 hours. I would only recommend playing here if you lived close by and could play on $28 Tuedays.
Don't Waste Your Time.....or Money
I have played this course before and enjoyed the layout and conditions. But my recent round was one of my WORST Golf experiences ever. After playing behind a slow foursome for 9 holes we asked to play through on 10 as there were now 2 holes open in front of them and called the pro shop for a marshall. One didn't show up until our 14th hole after 3 additional calls. Once we passed the slow group we made up for lost time because there was no one in front of us. We asked to speak to the pro and he could care less about our complaints that they didn't properly manage pace of play. He told us we should be complaining because we finished in 4:30 on a busy Friday. It took so us almost 4 hours just to play 14 holes. We played the last 5 holes on only 40 minutes. (2 par 3's I ncluded). He offered no explanation nor apologies for their lack of management of pace of play. I olay a lot of golf and understand that sometimes it's slow when the course is packed or conditions are tough. To to have one group slow the entire course on a prime Friday without any marshalls on the course is unacceptable. Needless to say I won't and you shouldn't waste your time playing at a course that doesn't value your time.
Where are Ambassadors?
Played on a Tuesday-3 hour front nine!!! Ambassadors just rode by and waved did nothing about pace of play-Posted pace of play in pro shop is 4 hours 20 minutes-didn't know they meant for 9!!!! Was thinking about joining until this debacle-Another mismanaged American Golf venture.
OK, just OK
good greens, course is beat up, no watering! No GPS on carts, 150 markers only
decent track
Only complaint is there are a couple of holes (9 red, 2 white) where there is trouble in the middle of the fairway (creek, and sunken waste area, respectively) that you can't see off the tee. If you haven't played here before, you'll want to buy the ydg book so you can see that stuff before you blow a brand new ProV1 down the middle of the fairway only to never find it. There are more than a few other holes that take driver out of your hand, which I don't mind as long as I know what I"m looking at off the tee.
Greens were in great shape and rest of the course coming along nicely. A few elevated tee shots which are fun, but make sure you judge your carry.
Staff could not have been more top notch, accommodating and nice.
fast greens and slow play
Despite still showing holes from aeration the greens were very fast. The pace of play for a Monday afternoon was close to five hours. Layout was interesting. Course was decent shape for spring time and Bermuda still a little dormant.
Chris Chandler I Found Your Ball Hiding From You!
Found Chris Chandler B330 golf ball at the Par 3 over water, in the water(his ball personalized I'M Not Loss Just Hiding From Chris Chandler). Oh yea, why I'm here, great course, greens are awesome, and you better bring your A game. Not a long course, do not try to over power it; if you miss long hitters you will pay for off target shots. I was lucky enough to play with a few locals that plays each Tuesday and their course knowledge was helpful. It's off the beaten path, but well worth the fun. Sharpen your games, head out for a great test of golf and I'm very sure you will enjoy.
Challenging but fair
Aside from green approach areas covered in long heavy clumps of long grasses making minor mistakes catastrophic, the course offered great layout and views. Bunkers need help. Mud not sand.
Great value for a fun course!
Before the GolfNow app I had never heard of the course but booked it on a weekday afternoon. This course is a great value and I really enjoyed the round. Greens were in great shape. I look forward to visiting again once the Spring allows the rest of the grass to green.
You sure you were playing Bradshaw because there is not a missing blade of grass on any of there greens!
