Major improvement needed

Played here a few times in previous years and won't be returning anytime soon,I can accept soft fairways and losing balls plugging but I can't accept the state of the greens just utterly poor with at least 5 having major crow damage but no signs of any work on them.Avoid playing here

Fantastic value.

Our second time playing this course, fantastic conditions for winter every hole and green open. Not really anything I can say that’s bad about the course, we played a week earlier and the rough was a little long in places but it had been cut the following week. Very flat course which makes a nice change, will definitely be returning.

Wet and windy

Long course and I wouldn’t say suitable for short off the tee players, very open and so can get quite windy . Very quiet on both occasions I’ve played in winter so can’t comment on summer.

Tee boxes in good condition, a little boggy in places but that’s the time of year not the courses fault. Greens were ok and the rough was cut well but the very soft so balls plug.

It’s better than the reviews suggest, nice club shop and bar too. It is hard work due to the length especially in winter conditions

Course should be closed

Do not pay to play this course!

The course is absolutely soaked, you are basically playing up to your shins in water.

Fairways as bad as the rough. You either lose a ball in a puddle or it plugs.

£23 to play this course is day light robbery.

We managed to play a few holes and then walked off. Asked for a refund but none forthcoming.

This course is unplayable at this time of year.

Waterlogged

The course was unbelievably wet and question whether it should have been open. We lost something like 20 balls as each drive plugged deep, as did the second shot on the longer holes. Our feet were wet through early on due to deep puddles you needed to walk through to get to the next hole . Understand that it’s difficult for the green keepers to gut the grass at this time of year, but tbe second cut was too long and another reason we lost so many balls. Have played it in summer and it’s a nice course, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone after so much rain.

Bad Weather Course Should Be Closed

We have had some bad weather but rang to check and course was open just soft under foot was advised.

This was an understatement the ground was sodden and your feet went below the surface. Soaking wet and the course was unplayable. I gave up after the 9th. This will surely wreck the course and take some time to repair itself.

The course layout looked good and would be a nice course in better conditions.

Feel sorry for the members as keeping it open will effect its fairways over the winter

Perfect weather
Walked

The course is a little out of the way but a Gem and always has space at a very reasonable price. The greens are recovering but a little slow, but we were advised of this by the professional, It is always an enjoyable experience. Played to handicap despite mossing a few putting opportunities.

Will try play again before mid Autumn.

Good potential but needs work

Course was in fairly poor condition, the greens are ok but the rough is thick and it is so easy to lose your ball when it's gone nowhere and add in there is so tons of grass clippings left in big patches. The lay out is good and for the money it's not that bad it's just a shame as it has got potential to be a lot better

A little disappointed

The greens were really bad and the bunkers were very compact. Patches missing from the greens. A temporary green that wasn’t well kept and was around 8ft in diameter.

If the course was looked after better I would highly recommend as it is set out well and is forgiving. However in its current condition I wouldn’t be going back

Course is recovering well

I'm happy to see the course is recovering well after having some major issues , the greens are still a little scarred on a few holes and one hole has a temporary green to allow the worst affected green to recover and rightfully so

But the fairways are now cut well , the course is challenging well bunkered with a Duke that winds around the course so it's a good test of where your golf game is at

Very well priced, fast paced course!

I see a load of reviews of this course on Google and negative ones about how the grass cuttings weren’t collected etc, we aren’t on the PGA tour and the course is 20 for an 18, fantastic value for money and the staff couldn’t be friendlier, club shop has a good variety of things to buy, good range of clubs balls etc, my first time here and it rained the night before and I was still happy with the way we was treated and the way I played! Big thumbs up from me 👍🏼👍🏼

Its like playing on the moon

Ive never actually been to the moon but from my experience on putting on the green here at Boothferry i would imagine the moon surface to be of a similar contrast. The surface is crusty and crumbly with cracks and craters .

I had to turn my electric trolley on to warp speed 7 as it ploughed its way through the semi rough due to poor maintenance.

I caught a squirrel burying his nuts on the third green ( i felt like doing the same thing with mine due to the terrible experience )

The pro in the shop was also the green keeper, the bar steward , the course marshal , the cleaner.

If your playing here bring your own rake for the bunkers ( and a tonne of sand )

My wife asked me if i was going there again next Saturday but i said i would rather go shopping with her to Primark !

The beer was cheap but FLAT
