A mess
Dandelions everywhere including fairways, asked why and the staff told me that the only working mowers were at their other course. Rough was also 4-5” deep. Lose balls a foot off “fairway”.

Still a Solid Choice
I have played Tuckaway 4-6 times a year for the past 20 years and it remains a solid choice. The course was in nice shape, the greens were a little slower than normal, and the course received a lot of play that day due to perfect weather conditions. I will return.

Overall the course was ok. Lots of leaves. Greens were not kept up real well. Grass was long and lots of debris on greens. Seems to me that if your going to keep the golf course open you should maintain it.

Decent course, terrible course management. At one point we had 3, 4 somes at one hole. 20 min wait per hole. Hopefully they are not usually like this.

needs work
Course was in better shape than earlier in the year, but still needs a lot of work. Greens were very slow & bumpy, tee boxes very weedy & even some bare spots, some bunkers are more dirt traps than sand traps. Layout is not bad, but course could be so much better.

Improving course
This course has always been a challenge, whether it is in good condition or bad. Lately, it's in better shape. The greens are small, and the fairway ground is hard. Pace of play is usually good. Staff is friendly.
