Cardinal Creek - Love the Three (9's)

I love the variety of rotating between the three nine hole courses, each with their own challenges. There is room for forgiveness on variois holes, but the hazards are still there to get penalties. The cpoirse is in excellent condition!

Don’t waste your money

Max size of greens are 25 feet in diameter, and they are torn apart at least 3 feet in. Grass in fairways is as long as the rough. Narrowest fairways I’ve ever played. Good luck hitting the driver. No sand in the the bunkers, just overgrown weeds. Staff if VERY rude. It’s unbelievable they charge this much for this very poor quality of course. DO NOT GOLF HERE!

After the Storm

Suprise upon arrival! Driving to the course there was no evidence of the resent storm, but as we drove into the course we saw debris, trees knocked down staff working getting everything cleared out. After we start golfing all my worries were pacified, the staff did a great job clearing the course. Great Job!!!!! Too bad my game needed a little help from the storm of strokes.

Training Day

Went out to introduce my son to the game. We watched training videos the week before. The day was exactly that for the new player. For me it was a great front nine shooting 41 the best I have shot in a couple of years.
