Oversold - horrible pace of play - didn't finish

Smock is a great course, but it was horribly oversold. I started at 1:30 PM and gave up on trying to finish with 2 holes remaining. You can't stack 6 or 7 consecutive foursomes on a Fall afternoon and expect anyone to finish in under 5 hours. I'll definitely think twice before coming back.

Pace of play

Course needs to manage the pace of play better. Luckily few groups were nice to let play thru but seems like “members” can play at a slow pace. Played smock for years and it’s always a problem. Seems staff is more interested in making a dollar than keeping pace of play.

Smock may review

Greens were as hard as a rock. Nothing stuck, everything rolled off the back even if I hit the front of the green. Tee boxes also very hard. Fairways were not bad. Could use some TLC on most of the greens at this course. Pace of play was solid. Was playing with 2 others and we finished in 4 hours

Long course!

This course is over 6400yds from the white tees. For us mortal golfers that is a long course! It’s a good layout in good condition it’s just long. The par 4s are between 370 and 420 and 2 of the par 3s are 190+. Have the short game tidy if you want to score!

Good challenging course

Course in very good shape. Fairways nice and greens were fast but true. A good challenging Indy course for the price. Lots of players but to be expected for a good local course. Friendly staff.

Good condition for a very dry summer

Course conditions were really good despite lack of rain. Greens were moderately fast but consistent through the round. Well maintained fairways and tee boxes great course on Indy south side
