Great course Great price
Course was in great shape and is always challenging, sometimes a bit too much. Might be time to cut the rough because we shouldn’t be losing balls 5 yards off the fairway lol.

KY Big Blue
Really like the course. Greens were multi colored. Pass of play that day was really slow. Had to skip a hole to get around a slow group.

Good for the money
BigBlue is in much better shape than Wildcat, but that’s not saying much. They don’t mow the greens nearly as often as they should, they were a little shaggy and slow, bunkers haven’t been raked in months. Several years ago it was one of the best places to play around, it’s cheaper and way nicer layout than all the city courses tho.
