Smock Golf Course

I have played this course many times over the years and I must say this year its in the best shape I have ever seen it. The course layout is great, good value for how well the coures was maintained. I have played courses for twice the money that were no better, so deffinitly give Somck a go for your next round.

Tee time on schedule. Good pace on course. Course is in good shape and well maintained. I like the layout.

Its a great course with a great staff. I normally play alone, and they paired me with a great couple, just shows the course attracts good people...thanks

Over all the course is in pretty good shape the greens hold moderately well. The bunkers need a lot of attention though.

Love this course! Par 5s are reachable in 3, Greens are in great shape.

The layout alone no matter the condition is worth the money!! Very busy but never had to wait long! Will play this course again. The driving range you have to drive your car to if you wanted to warm up before your round.

course was in good shape except greens needed mowing and were slower than usual

Good course and good value, would play again. Lay ups on par 5's and a couple of par 3's well bunkered. Good stuff.

Really like the course. Greens were in great shape and the par 3's are very challenging.

Got to the course 1/2 hour before my tee time. Checked in and was told they had 80 couples with an outing. An hour later, 1/2 hour after I should have teed off I am still on the first tee box. No Starter, No Ranger to help with pace of play. 40 minutes later I make it to the first green. Unreal!!! Started bouncing around all over the course trying to find a hole to play. Have no idea what I shot that day. It was a lot of wasted time. Finally just left, to save myself the frustration at playing at a golf course and staff that just does not care.

This was my first time on this course. I will definitely return! The fairways are great and the greens are challenging. In addition they have a great driving range facility.

It had been 20 years since I played this course. My, how the trees have grown. The staff was Very helpful, especially the pro shop attendant. Course was in very good shape and I very muct enjoyed my round. Will be playing here again in the future.

I like to play first thing in the morning and a lot of courses do not accommodate the need for me to play around 6:00. I was able to tee off at 6:17 and get my round in and into work at a great time. The course was in great condition.

The course was in good shape. Greens good fairways good. Even the adult beverages were reasonably priced..

As an average golfer (16 handicap) I have a love/hate relationship with this course. I've played it many times over the years. It's kept in great condition for a city course, plays long from the tips, and is generously open (nice for those of us who struggle off the tee). However, the pace of play is ridiculously slow. I had not played here in about 2 years because the last time I did it took over 5 hours. This time I scheduled an early 7.33A tee time hoping to get out early with my buddy (a 10 handicap) & smoke the course. We were at the tee box at 7.13A, no other groups were around, but because the starter's notepad said there were other groups ahead of us, we weren't aloud to tee off. After those groups finally arrived, we were paired up with another twosome & we teed of at almost 7.45A. We walked off the 18th green at 1.00P. CRAZY! I enjoy the course, but will not take the time to return.

A little course knowledge goes a long way at Smock. Some hazards are not apparent at first, such as the creek on the first hole, which cannot be seen from the first fairway. The course has a few water hazards in play and a handful of bunkers, but the real hazards are subtle, like strategically placed trees and thick rough that swallows golf balls. Golfers should check yardages carefully; often the scorecard and tee box signs conflict. (Smock should get accurate measurements for sprinkler heads and tee boxes -- or perhaps invest in GPS units for the carts.) The driving range is oddly located on the far back end of the course, so a quick, pre-round warm-up is not an option.

Great muni with some challenging holes, above adequate green complexes and excellent fairways. This course would challenge even low handicap players, but can still be fun for all with good course management

Early in year, so course will be in better shape. Greens were a little bumpy. Overall, course was in decent shape.

The course was rough because it is wintertime. I've played this course dozens of times because it is close to my house. It is one of the longer and tougher public courses in Indianapolis.

Although several inches of snow had recently melted followed by several inches of rain the next two days, the fairways were lush (even if slushy) and the greens were smooth ( even if longish). The new bridges are better than those on much more expensive courses.
