Not playing again
Got a good deal to try out this course. However, before we even teed off on #1 we decided we were not returning. We watched staff berate someone who didnt go off the tee box correctly. Really awkward and not a professional way to begin a round.
Open after the snow
The team at Bowie are dedicated to getting us on the course regardless of Mother Nature’s snowstorm. Trees and branches everywhere.. Workers hustling to remove the obstacles. It was poetry in motion. 39 degrees when we teed off with remnants of snow in shaded spots. Golf in January…priceless. Go Bowie!
Good public course
Old course with good design and ownership trying to keep it an overall good experience. Nice people seem to be running it and nice people seem to be playing it.
Great experience!
This was my first time playing a real course (played a few pitch and putts before this), so take this review with that in mind.
Cannot beat the value. Period. Course was challenging enough for me - a professional ball loser- but I broke 100 so it’s all good. I will be back. Can’t beat the price.
Great place to play
Great value for the money. Not much to complain except leaves on the fairway and sand on the sand traps was very packed. Because of the leaves lost few balls. Greens needed some TLC, they were slightly overgrown which cause minor bumpyness. Cart path needs major rework. I will definitely recommend this course to my friends.
Bowie
This is one of my favorites. The new management is friendly and supportive. They are already making improvements.
The course was in good shape and well maintained. The greens started slow and got faster. They managed the frost delay without an issue.
Great experience and I shot my lifetime personal best!!!.
Good place to play
I have played here several times, it's a good place and price is very reasonable. Cart path needs rebuilding. Greens are great but fairways need some work. Sand traps also need work.
We see you rated the course 3-stars and are interested in learning what we can do to improve before your next round. Feel free to comment on this review or reach out to the team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
Positive first experience
I enjoyed the course. The course was nice for a November day but many greens were covered in leaves. Could use some maintenance around them to blow leaves off, it made putting a nightmare. Otherwise, enjoyable course! I’m definitely coming back again.
Best starter around
Have not played Bowie in many months, hard to play as a single with all the new Covid golfers. The new starter RON was outstanding could not be more positive and was quick with any information you needed. Will try to schedule another round asap.
Love the layout of the course
Always loved Bowie. Had a ladies league there for years. Our league left because of the cleanliness of the clubhouse.
Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Bowie Golf Club.
