Ed Oliver Golf Club

As an all season player, I can tell you this course needs more work than a little bit. The bunkers are never taken care of their hard as rocks. Also not all the bunkers have sand in them some are just ground up clay or dirt or something. The greens are in pretty good shape most of the year the fairways that’s a different story crabgrass everywhere grab grass on the Teebox if there is grass on the Teebox. Teeboxs also uneven . Like I said, the course needs help they are slowly, but surely putting work into the course it’s just not happening a quick rate. I play there all the time, and yet I tend to be disappointed time and time again. In my opinion, golf is hard enough already without all of these other variables on this course to hinder your game.

Had an earlier tee time on a Saturday. We were able to speed through the round with almost no hold ups. Greens and fairways were in good shape especially considering the dry few weeks we’ve had.

I am a single and always play with good people there. The course is challenging and in good shape. I am usually able to get a good rate with the golf now app, which is nice

Two of us played 18 holes yesterday. Greens were in decent shape---I did not see any weeds or other surface disruptions. Fairways had quite a number of weeds present. Tight lies were frequent on the course. Cart navigation was easy, with the next tee box close to the last green. .

Bunkers hard as rock

Fairways terrible

Tee boxes terrible

Overall the course needs $ to improve the conditions. Zero decent lies in the fairway or rough. Bunkers had little or no sand and the lips had not seen a weed whacker in weeks. Greens were in good shape and fast. Unfortunately whoever cuts the holes had trouble getting them in straight as many of the pins were leaning. To top it off, on a hot day no one bothered to fill the water coolers and put them into their housings on the course. They were sitting in the cart garage. Covid is no excuse as all other courses have them…

Apparently this course is a a year or two into an overhaul, and you can tell the work is paying off. The greens were some fantastic and challenging. Fairways in good condition except one of them which had a some bare spots but could be from over use in a dry summer. Tee boxes in good shape, bunker sand was soft and no pooled up water. Over all I’d play this course anytime.

Fairways are rarely more than 20 yards wide with thick rough all around. Driving accuracy is a premium.

Like many public, and some private, courses I’ve played lately, too many ball marks on greens that are not fixed. Do people not carry a divot fixer when playing?

Pro shop & other staff were very friendly.

I’ve played the course periodically over the last 25 years or so. The improvements made have really made playing Oliver more interesting. Wider fairways in some areas would make it even better.

Nice course for the money. Rough was thick. Needs to improve pace of play with ranger. Will be back.
