Underwhelming

Greens roll true, other than that nothing too impressive. They charge way too much for what you get. The #1 handicap hole was a easy and short par 4......really???

NEVER SHOULD HAVE CHANGED

It was two 18 holes which gave a great variety!. Should have spent the money on more grooming and a NEW CLUB HOUSE.

Course Looking up

The course was set up nicely. Average difficulty for the area. Greens were medium speed and fairways were on par for the course. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Good Day

I have played Bobby Jones quite a bit over the last year plus. The staff is usually very friendly and the practice area is very good. I think the course is a good course and kept in very good condition. I think the greens fees are a little high for this course.
