Beautiful Day for Golf

Playing the Willows for the 3rd time this year. Course is challenging but there are no unfair holes. You must get off the tee to score. Greens were in good shape and fast. Downhill putts were crazy fast! A few places around the greens with burnt grass but repair work was in place. I recommend for a good round of golf to play and enjoy.

We played 18 and 2 1/2 hours

They put us on the back line at Pioneer and we had a wonderful time. The course is in a great condition. The starter was friendly and accommodating will definitely be back.

Dry

Greens were very hard and some were patchy. Recent hot weather damaged the course. Lots of patchy fairways..

Great layout though

Not good

Fairways were in horrible condition.

The greens had bare spots all over and ball marks like you wouldn’t believe.

Would not suggest to play this course anytime soon .

Great Potential

Really loved the facilities & the staff. The course layout was great but the fairways on the front 9 (of The Willow) were burnt out and did not have much grass. That said the greens were outstanding and the back 9 was outstanding. We asked the staff about the front 9 and they said it was the amount of play they've had under hot dry conditions but are confident the grass will return. And so will I - definitely give it another shot!

Unfair greens. 5 some walkin

Hitting the greens. Lots of slope and undulations but 3 were ridiculous and need to be fixed. As balls roll off the greens and there is no way to stop them with #10 being he worst., but nothing bothers me more then a 5 some walking on a hilly course holding up all the players behind them. On #6 they were 2 holes behind the group in front of them with 2 groups on the tee box waiting. So I skipped 6&7 and went directly to 8 No ranger seen the entire day. For all the rain we’ve had this course is a rock fairways and rough was spotty with grass and holes I would go to another course even though I was on a $22 hot time It wasn’t worth it
