Buffalo Trace 9-29-21

Great course, fairways and greens in great condition ( on front none). Did not play back nine, back nine greens were being aerated. I definitely will be back.

Pace of play terrible

This course really needs a Ranger to keep pace of play. Numerous times we had 3 sets deep at a tee box. I understand it’s a holiday day but there’s no excuse waiting to tee off and watching the set in front of you searching for a ball in a hazard for 10 minutes while people have walked off the green 5 minutes ago and sets are piling up behind you to tee off. We cut our 18 in half and left after 3 hours to play 9. Course definitely needs a ranger. Everything else top notch!

Good course for the price.

Course was in decent shape. They are cutting a lot of trees out of the back nine making it more open.

Course was great!

Issue was.. we got stuck waiting 46 minutes to play the back nine because of a late running scramble. I will play the course again. Just not if they have a scramble that day.

Good Course

It’s a challenging beginner course. The fairways are narrow. The course is in great condition. Everyone I talked to there was extremely nice from the staff to the people playing golf. They have a ranger so the play was at a good speed.

Nice Municipal Course

Overall very good.

NO driving range though...which is tough on older players like myself... I need 15-20 balls to warm up.

Really...The only complaint I have is that we arrived 45 minutes early and one of the staff tried to rush us into taking an earlier time because of a no-show. We disregarded him even though he was quite pushy

Crazy layout

Front nine is a beautiful course with quick greens. While the back nine is real complex and a tough course for long hitters, it sets up well for players that hit irons well!
