Greens are great
Fairways need some improvement but beautiful long holes greens fast but nothing crazy, definitely a difference with the hills in play
Nice course. Getting better. Too many leaves no one out trying to clear them. Good time
Mr. Rick
Great course. Way too many leaves. No one working on course to remove them. Good day. Thanks
Great improvement
The change in the last 5 months is incredible! Several greens that were unputtable are much better. Greens are rolling great, tees are being groomed and fairways and rough are cut regularly. The addition of a new irrigation system will do wonders for the entire course but especially the fairways. Kudos to the new superintendent!!
Major makeover
Greens are unbelievably fast compared to last 17 years i been playing there. Definitely well worth the money. Course has good layout. Only downfall is no fairway or bunkers around the greens. Change has come and for the better.
Hills and valleys
I like playing this course because I like shooting into valleys
First time
Like a time warp back 80 years, beautifully kept this cold autumn day. Greens were lightning fast, friendly fairways. Could benefit from a couple more options at the halfway house, but super smart placement. Starter is cracking jokes whenever possible. Solid round, good place to boost confidence
Good little track.
It's been almost 40 years since I have played Hickory Hills. It's been a while in an understatement. I have read some awful reviews about this course over the years. Recently a friend told me that they played it and it wasn;t bad, so I gave it a shot. Overall it was a very pleasant experience, great staff, short ( 6000 yards form the tips) but the greens were in great shape and the tee boxes were pretty good. Accuracy off of the tee box is key, lots of trees, a hilly course for Illinois and some of the greens can have a lot of slope. All in all a fun day, and I will play it again.
Will come again
Hickory used to have terrible fairways and greens. Greens have much improved and fairways do look better but still have a ways to go. You can tell a difference from 3 years ago last time I was here. They also have brand new carts. You can tell they are trying, heard they have a new grounds crew. Some construction on some holes. Will try to make it back again this year. Excited to see what they do next year.
Fun downhill shots, good character, bad condition
There are some very fun downhill shots, it is a cool looking course. I am a beginner so normally I don't notice the condition of the courses a ton, but the fairway is like rough that is grown on top of a rock. So on the bright side, if you top the ball, it will roll for miles. Overall fairly fun unless you're nitpicky about conditions.
Toto we aren't in Illinois anymore!
Hills! Hills! Hills! When 90% of the local courses are flat as a pancake, HH is an interesting challenge. Just wish that all the fairways were as well kept as the greens.
