Annbriar Golf Course

Course was in really good shape. It was a little hot the day we played but had enough breeze to stay somewhat cool. Check in was fast and easy.

Course was in pretty good shape. The greens had considerably amount of ball marks not repaired. The tee boxes were really good. Beverage cart came by several times on an extremely hot day.

Even sand traps are in excellent shape! Water bottles were well stocked on course!!!

What was once the best, upscale course in the St. Louis metro area – is no longer. I’ve written before how this weed (I think it is goosegrass) is making inroads at Annbriar. Looks like they have tried to kill it in certain spots but then you still see the weed in a yellow color. I would recommend them strip all these areas and put down new zoysia sod, otherwise, this issue will only get worse.

Not sure if Annbriar has its priorities set properly. The condition of the course is the most important thing. For example, they put down new zoysia sod from the cart path to the 3rd tee. Why? Put that sod on the tees and fairways in the weed/dirt spots.

Here are the holes with a significant goosegrass problem:

Fairways (1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 14)

Tees (6, 7, 10, 15)

Parts of fairways are dirt near fairway bunkers (2, 5, 9, 14)

Here is the good news about Annbriar. The greens are really good & smooth. They have been topdressing them with sand. The weekday senior rate of $55 is decent. They have cleared out a significant about of brush behind the 11th tee. You can actually see the two house back there. The staff is always pleasant.

It is so disappointing that Annbriar was a significant weed issue and they are not doing anything to fix the issue. If nothing is done, Annbriar will never have the top-rated status it used to always have.

Got a great deal on golf now and was told by people go play this course . The course is outstanding and immaculate, greens were true and rolled well . Really enjoyed the course and the layout . I have to give the course 5 star rating . As for the staff , friendly in the pro shop who I dealt with . However the old guy outside at the starter box was not very friendly and questioned what I was doing , don’t know why . Also I had a tee time and was by myself and in between groups of fours . The guys in front were extremely slow and were at least a hole behind . They need Marshall’s on the course to keep the play under control and the pace of play . No Marshall on the first tee which wasn’t good as people were not on the tee on time . I would go back for another game for sure but they need a Marshall on the course to keep things going along smoothly

Ladies tees provides a good advantage which makes it a fun challenge for women

I play a lot, all over stl. This is a little bit of a drive and is a little pricey, it it has the BEST tee boxes, fairways and greens. Hands down horrible pace of play, but excellent quality gc.

It was a really nice course the rough was a little thick when we played make sure to club up
