Worst round of golf in my life

This was probably the worst experience I have ever had playing golf in the last 7 years and a whole lot of golf. We started off the first two holes smooth and then we got to the 3rd hole and all you know what broke loose. We had two foursomes in front of us, the guys in the front were some teenagers that were already hammered getting even more hammered and holding up the course way longer than usual. These guys were flipping the carts how crazy they were driving and trying to run over wildlife like deer and ducks that weren’t even on the actual course. Then the guys behind them were kids that were walking the course and that we ended up going in front of on the turn because they were taking a lunch break. So they ended up catching up to us and starting hitting balls right at us probably 5 feet away multiple times. Then on the last hole the teenagers that were drunk wanted to fight guys that were on the tee box and took their clubs and balls and were tossing them out of their cart. This was a horrible experience and worst part was the starter was called multiple times by multiple people and couldn’t do anything to both these groups. What a waste of money this round was.

Very Solid, especially for the money

I'm not a very experienced golfer but I'm not terrible either (about a 19 handicap) This course was pretty perfect for me. Tee boxes were mostly fine and the greens were a little inconsistent but also not too bad. Overall it's a good course and for around $40 it's a decent deal. Wish it had some sort of driving range somewhere but sometimes it's hard with the location.

Great time well Spent.

Although shorter than other courses, Chick Evans is a Cake Walk and should not be underestimated. Highly recommended and good luck!

Its Worth the Walk or Ride!

My round of golf at Chick Evans was decent and full of adventure even though my second time playing this course. There is always a surprise for each hole and for every shot whether going long from the tee-box or short on my approach...The front nine holes will challenge you and the back nine much forgiven. Give it a walk or a ride and you'd return again soon!
