First Time Playing

What took me so long?

First time playing here. What a treat. The conditions on the day I played were outstanding. Not sure from the recent rain or if they water a ton but the fairways were some of the best I have played on. I play once a week and also travel all over to play golf. I was super impressed with not only fairways but greens as well. Greens were fast and well cared for. To be honest, I could have paid twice what I did and would have still felt like I got a deal. Sand traps were poor but that is the only thing I could ding them on. Can't wait to go back.

First Time Playing

I enjoyed Boone Creek

I personally enjoyed Boone Creek. It's not a long course, but you have to make shots. If you spray the ball everywhere, bring shag balls or don't play here. Otherwise, I felt the course was in nice condition, greens were medium speed and rolled for a true putting surface.

Great course....

.....but, if you commonly spray the ball everywhere or you HAVE to hit driver 14x per round, then this course may be difficult for you. Otherwise I would define it as a shorter, visually intimidating course. It's in good shape and has a lot of fescue.

Decent course.

Bunkers need attention.

Greens are super fast as of my review date

Grass is in good shape.

A little pricey for what it is.

Pace of Play

The course was backed up from the first tee throughout 18 holes. About a 5 hour round. There was no starter to pair up twosomes and singles, so everyone went off at there own pace. There was no marshal to move groups along and pick up pace play. The grounds keepers did not give way to golfers, but kept mowing which added to the pace of play issue. The day was beautiful and the temperature was perfect which was out of the control of golf course staff.

Pace of play

There were too many groups out on the course. Tee times need to be monitored and groupings enforced. Singles should have been put with groups of twosomes or threesomes to improve pace of play. We saw no marshals on the course. Play was slow on first nine holes, but became even slower on second nine. So we were not able to finish 18 holes yesterday. Normally I can play 18 with a cart in two and a half to three hours. Yesterday we were at four and a half hours and left without finishing.
