Great day at the course!
Always a great round here at Spencer T! For a busy day the pace of play was outstanding. Course was in great shape as well. Easily the best place to play for your money’s worth.
Always a good time
Love playing this course. Even in the winter months the course is always well maintained.
Carts On Path In Off-Season, Extremely Slow Play
My friend made the tee time at Spencer T. Olin because he was told they allow carts in the fairways when it is dry. When we arrived, we found out that Spencer T. Olin is another course not allowing carts in the fairway when the zoysia grass is dormant. We would have played somewhere else if accurate info would have been given to my friend.
More courses are doing this. Courses can do what they want. However, they will lose business in the off-season and you can expect extremely long rounds. Our round was 5 1/2 hours. Totally unacceptable and no ranger found on the course.
Spencer T. Olin is one of my favorite courses in the Metro St. Louis area, however, not on my list with the cart path rule and no ranger to stop the 5 1/2 hour rounds in the off-season. Play Gateway, Far Oaks or Annbrair, who allow carts in fairways in the off-season.
I thought the course was in excellent shape for late February. Greens were really good. The price of $35
was attractive. What is unusual about the course in the off-season, they only have one tee marker on each tee. Not sure what the reason is behind this.
Only problem
Only problem with the course was piles of leaves on the fairways and a couple 5somes on the course
Great Course Even In The Fall
Spencer T. Olin is one of my Top 5 courses in the St. Louis metro area. Good mixture of holes. The challange on this course is the greens. The staff there is extremely friendly too. For late November, course is in excellent shape. The senior weekday rate of $28 cannot be beat. Best course for the money.
Awesome!
I love this course, always in great shape and a good layout. Four hours for the round; I’d like it a little bit faster but that’s about normal due to players refusing to play the correct tee box.
Slow and slower
Slow for a weekday. Lesser players need to move forward to get around course in less than 5 hours.
Excellent Day
Great pace of play and the course is in very nice condition. Greens were still rolling true and at a fast rating. $43 for 18 and one of my favorite courses around the St Louis metro!
