Super fun!

First time playing this course. Greens were REALLY SLOW with all the rain this week. But if you do better than my party locking into those, you’ll have a great time. Course is in good shape, with lots of interesting hole designs. No sand is a plus in my book! Would play again soon if I find another sup-$40 deal, but it’s certainly worth $50 for a fun morning.

Decent Course but needs to have Rangers

Course was in decent shape with the exception of the rough, it was very high and looked like it hadn't been cut in weeks. The greens and tee boxes were in decent shape. The biggest issue was that there wasn't anyone monitoring the pace of play and the foursome in front of us was dreadfully slow and backing up the entire course.

Nice local course

Ownership is clearly upgrading this course. Greens were pretty slow. Difficult to find some balls that were just off the fairways.

Has its challenges but not without rewards!

Plenty of hills, bends and trees to offer many challenges on this course. Well placed tee shots make all the difference in getting to the green in regulation. The trees are dense at times and there is no blasting through them to recover from a bad tee shot, you have to take your medicine and punch out. If your tee shot is well positioned, you will score!

Had a great time with my retired buddies.

Excellent I can’t believe there is a course this close to my home. Played others in the outer boundary but Hickory Hills is the best.

Great day yesterday. Course was in excellent condition. Beautiful mature trees and wide fairways. The only issue is there are no distance markers. These days with everyone using gps or laser range finders, maybe they’re not needed anymore.
