Best bang for your Buck
Great course for the price can not go wrong. Only thing is didn’t have Arnold palmers (no tea) being Arnold Palmer built course need to always have his drink!
Staff in the golf shop and the restaurant were great! Friendly attentive quick to respond to any need we had. We had such a great time we played 36
Awesome tract
God made the land and Arnold Palmer gently laid a beautiful stern but totally fair test of golf on this property. Greens are perfect bentgrass. Fairways are healthy zoysia. The rough is almost totally some expertly trimmed wide blade grass. It is not a tangled mixed breed mess I have encountered on two other courses in this area. It is penal as it should be. However you have a fair chance to find your pro v and recover or make bogey. The folks entrusted to present this property are doing their job impeccably . And at a great price I might just add. So bring a modest amount of talent, choose the appropriate tee box and enjoy. Lastly, there are a number of holes where you can choose the correct smaller club or in the spirit of Arnie you can challenge the hole and land that drive you will always remember. Thanks Arnie!!
Spencer T
The only issue was the pace of play was miserably slow due to a scrambles group that went off a half hour before our tee time.
Ourselves is well kept and player friendly. It is challenging enough to allow the average to good golfer an opportunity to enjoy the ride.
GREAT VALUE FOR GREAT COURSE
I AM AN HOUR AWAY FROM COURSE, BUT THIS IS BECOME MY COURSE OF CHOICE.
Even in the off season, it's a great challenging course
I play this course several times during the regular season. I was pleased to see the greens are still rolling very good even with it being the off season.
Given it’s only February and course is still in a “winter” (off-season mode), course in good condition and enjoyed playing on a 59 degree sunny day in February. Had some rain day before so fairways were a bit wet and understandably it was cart path only. Only negative was we played behind as slow- playing five some.
Great Greens For February
For winter golf, you can't find too many better places to play. The cost of $26 for a senior and you're on an outstanding Arnold Palmer designed course. The greens were truly outstanding for mid-February. They were smooth and fast. There is plenty of slope on the greens and with these fast greens, putting is difficult. You're going to have some three-putts.
The course received plenty of rain the day before, fairways were soggy and it was carts on path. The staff is always friendly and it is a great place to play.
Never disappoints!
Fantastic course great layout with a great staff that never disappoints. The best value for your money in the St. Louis area and the conditions are always good.
Spencer T
I hadn’t played Spencer T Olin in 3 years and I thoroughly enjoyed the course again, it is a fun challenging course. The course was in very good condition considering it was the end of November, especially the greens which were smooth and just quick enough. If you haven’t been there in awhile like me I’d get there soon and enjoy this nice public course.
Great Course
Course was in its usual phenomenal shape. Think the staff was short handed. Young lady working the bar was bringing carts up for the golfers. Lady behind the desk was helpful but at times was surly.
