Traps not good
Starting to slip again. It’s a shame. Was on a steady improvement over the past 3 years. Greens still in great shape but they have neglected the traps. The water does not drain and they are not raked.
Condition improving every week
I have played this course a couple of times a year for 10 years. It is finally being cared for properly. The traps are almost all done, the fairways have grown in and the greens are fast. all of that said some of the pin placements were a bit ridiculous. The greens keeper must be behind a tree laughing.
A perfect course for a perfect day!
The course was in wonderful shape. All of the tee boxes were neat. The fairways and rough were perfectly cut. The greens were fast. It was a great day!
A tough track in good condition
Piper has two of the most interesting holes in Central Illinois
Nice Course With Good Challenges
Piper Glen is one of the better courses available to the public in the Springfield area. The course is usually in great shape and features a range of difficulty from hole to hole. Suitable for all but the most novice golfer. Rates are mostly in line with other courses of a similar caliber in this area. Overall, I always have a great time at Piper Glen.
Piper
The course was in great condition, my only complaint was with the pin locations and the speed of the green. Too many times to count today, any putt you hit ended up in the opposite fringe and many of the placements were incredibly difficult. Many very good shots onto the green were left with the only option to hit it to the fringe under the hole. Fantastic course but too challenging of greens for my skill level, on many holes a 3 putt was superb. With that said, will play again soon!
Good course and getting better
This course has made major improvements in the past few years.
Top Course for Capital Area.
Piper was in pretty great shape all things considered. It had rained a lot overnight and there was a large remnant of fog in places. I hadn’t played Piper in over 3 years. My game has certainly grown since the last time, cuz, while long from the whites, I still scored very well.
Flawless Conditions
The course was tough but fair. Greens are fast with tons of slope. It felt like we were playing a resort course. Flawless conditions ready for tournament play. Highly recommended course to play if you are in the Springfield area. Bring your A game this course is far from easy or short.
Wheres the ranger?
Love playing piper. Always in good shape. However pace of play is always horrible. Never anyone out policing the pace. Other golfers never recognize they are multiple holes behind and rarely even acknowledge the person behind them. Shouldnt have to wait 10-15 min per shot on a Wednesday afternoon.
