2 Diff Course Conditions
Just played Wildcat or White course. Great layout and greens in very good shape. However, the balance of the course was poorly maintained. Dandelions, dead not dormant grass, wild rough that hasn’t seen a mower.
Blue course looked amazing, picked the wrong one. No Bev cart either on a Saturday morning
A Tale of Two Courses
Over three days (3/31-4/2) I played BOTH of the UK courses.- The Wildcat Course and "Blg Blue.." Nearly every fairway on the Wildcat was straight-up DEAD - that would have been acceptable (tough winter-kill conditions) except that "Big Blue" had PERFECT fairways. The difference in greens fee cost is NOTHING when the conditions are so desperately different...
Wildcat course
Cart paths are terrible need some serious work done to them
Always a great place to play
Wildcat and Big Blue are two of my favorite tracks in Lexington. Well maintained and pace of play is usually pretty good.
Decent Round on a Good Day
As a student at UK it is good to have this course as an option to play.
Aeration Alert
Great course and layout, only problem was that the greens were aerated and it didn’t show up when I booked the tee time so I was surprised. Could be an amazing track if they just took care of it like they used to.
Torched
I heard it’s been an exceptionally hot summer and, at times, lots of moisture. Do, burned out and areas of rot. Sections of tee boxes closed. Teeing off from the fairway on 7, maybe? The 3rd or 4th green closed. Not the staff’s fault. Good facility and layout. Might come back by Fall. The Golf Now deal made it a fair deal. Thanks.
Wildcat Course Review
Course was in terrible shape. Temporary green and tee on a couple of holes. Tee boxes all crab grass and overall condition extremely poor. Green fees too high for shape and condition of course. Very disappointed for the University course.
League
Rough is way toooo high for normal play, greens in good shape
UK
Greens good, rest of course needs work. Building a new green so that affects a few of others
very VERY very slow
as having a good time, Kinda slow, got to the back and it just got wayyyyyy too slow wound up leaving after 13 holes
Wild Cat Course Gets F The course was in terrible shape.
The course looks like it is under renovation. It was terrible. I will never paly wild CAT again. I had played big blue the weekend and it was in great shape. But Wild Cat gets an FFFFFF never again.
