Plattsburg Country Club

I went out and played by myself yesterday. It only took me about 3 hours to complete the course. The things I liked about it are there are a lot of par 3's and 5's, the fairways are well maintained, and it was challenging. The things I didn't like were that there were too many blind shots (having never played there it made it very difficult) and the greens were pretty small. For the price I payed through golfnow though, it was well worth the money.

Overall the course is in good condition, Greens 1 & 4 need some attention. need some drinking water on the course, I did not see any jugs of water.

Very few sand traps. Only two tee boxes per hole. Several greens having minor trouble with disease around edges. Rental carts in good condition.

On the bright side, the staff was lovely, extremely friendly and helpful. But other than that, I would've rather spent my time playing Tiger Woods on Xbox. This wasn't even a golf course, it was like a giant field of grass with greens (if you can call them that) randomly placed around it. Too many holes stuffed into too small of an area that led to several extremely dangerous holes. There were no fairways, it was literally just rough cut a tiny bit shorter. Greens were in horrid shape, and were basically like bunkers. Not to be a huge jerk, but I don't think anyone could pay me to go back here. Don't waste your time, it's cheap, but you're better off saving your money and going to the driving range than playing here. Sorry Plattsburg, your people are awesome, but your golf course blows.

We were looking forward to getting to play Plattsburg Country Club. Instantly those ideas changed. After the first 4 or so holes we realized that the course conditions were extremely poor, and there is truly no guidance or course etiquette observed by any of the members. They zoom around--not really concerned with whether or not they get to play 18 holes. THis course desperately needs a marshall that governs play. We were playing on a Saturday, which I would feel warrants a Marshall. The course conditions were desperately needing help. I realize that this part of the country has experienced quite a drought, but our foursome played golf for 4 days straight around this area, and Plattsburg by far was the worst course we saw. Also, the setup of this course is such that you may as well not worry about knowing where you are hitting. Nearly every hole has some form of blind shot, whether off the tee or on your shots into the hole. With our group not having local knowledge, we were incredibly challenged to know what shot to play, what clubs to utilize, and overall really led to this being an overall bad experience.

I liked the course and would play it again. Hole number 3 is strange. I hit a draw and actually had to aim over a road to get the ball in play. So had had to wait on the traffic. Other than that it was challanging. We are in the middle of a drought so the rough is non existant. Greens putted very true. Can't wait to play it again. The price is great. Good Value.
