Course was in nice shape. Pace of play slowed down on the back 9 but wasn’t too bad. Only complaint I had was there wasn’t one water cooler on the course & we only saw the beverage cart twice but when we saw it the cart was holes away from us.
Great Course for the Price
This was a great course for the price. Fun course to play.
Great Par Fours
The par four holes are particularly challenging and the course layout is above average. Definitely worth your time to give this course a try.
Nice course, odd layout on Wildcat 18
Playing partner told me they recently changed some holes on Wildcat course. Very odd routing at the turn. Number 9 is probably a quarter mile or further from the clubhouse...making just going to the bathroom at the turn a bit of a chore. It was really hot the day we played and there was NO water anywhere to be had on the course and we didn't see a beverage cart until about hole 14. At the turn the beverage cart was sitting empty by the entrance to the concession stand.
So overall, a nice course with modest price. But the new course layout is odd, and lack of water and no beverage cart on a blistering hot day is hard to understand.
Great experience
Course was in good condition. Played early in the AM, and there was no one in front of us, so we were able to play in just over 3 hours. My son hadn't played Wildcat before, and this turned out to be one of his new favorites. Overall, a very high quality experience.
Nice course No water in sight
I like this course and they have made some improvements to it over the years. The sand traps have decent sand in them now. The condition of the tee boxes and fairways was very good. The greens for the most part were in very good shape. There were some bad spots here and there, but overall they were good. The worst of it all was the lack of water on the course. Several years ago they changed the tees around making it that you didn't come by the clubhouse until you were going from 16 to 17. Because they had no water available on the Wildcat course you remained pretty dry until you at least finished 16. Being the home course for the Kentucky Wildcats one would think they would provide water coolers throughout the course.
Course in great shape
Driving range is great place to practice.
Fairways were hard and fast even after a rain. Greens are in good shape, sad other golfers don’t feel it necessary to repair their ball divots.
I played through GOLFNOW so very good value.
Would definitely play there again
