Good value
Even with a tournament on the same day I got around in 4:10. Road construction made things tight but all in all a good round.
It was not too bad.
Went to this couse in the morning around 8am.
Par 70 couse. Fairways are not bad but I like the greens. It was well maintained and fast enough.
Good to play with little money. I will go back again.
Great course for none w/e warriors!! Love it....
This is a great course to play in a non-stress environment, especially for those trying to stay away from weekend warriors. The course is fairly well maintained, and the price is right, considering you always experience an enjoyable time, away from those who are unrealistic in their thought process looking to play on a PGA rated course, for just a few bucks. Sad to say, but you can't always fix stupid and win everyone who are unrealistic. This is my favorite local course, it's no stress and I always have a great time with my scratch buddy!
Love everything about this course
Bowie always comes to mind when I think of bringing a group to play or simply working on my Game! Staff are Great and attentive very welcoming and Friendly!
Great value
Bowie is in good shape this late in the season. The greens are well maintained but very soft after some brutal weekend storms. The front nine has some drainage problems that need to be addressed. The back nine was in very good shape.
Some parts of the cart path are just beat up and make for a bumpy ride. Sand traps are like concrete.
It's a great course for the occasional golfer who needs wide open fairways. I think seasoned golfers will find Bowie fun. Pace of play was slightly slow but it was a great afternoon and nobody was pushing anyone else.
Luckily we were paired with two brothers who were as nice as you'd find on any course.
I'll golf here again.
Run of the Mill
BGCC is pretty basic when it comes to golf courses. Fees are low though so that's a plus. Some holes can be pretty challenging (i.e., doglegs, shots over water, etc.), and it can be a fun course to play. Amenities aren't great and the clubhouse is pretty old and rundown. If you're looking for discount golf, look no further.
Value for Dollar
Bowie golf club has tight fairways that will challenge your game. Course is in excellent condition. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The pace of play allows you to play a round in about 4.5 hours. For those who like to walk is very easy to walk a round.
Vacation Go--To
Every time I take a vacation to visit my brother, we always go to this course. The grounds have never been too hard or too soft, and it's just a very fun course. Not hughely challenging, yet not super easy. Love it.
Course was in good shape, greens were rolling true. Pace was good, finished in 4 hours on the dot. Will go back for sure. John and the staff were welcoming and accommodating.
Final US golf before deployment
Staff person was vert welcoming and accomodating. He was kind enough to pair me with another single, who had the round very enjoyable. I played better than my partner, but we enjoyed each other's company. The only drawback were the Koreans in front of us who thought they owned the course and made pace of play very slow on the back nine. Course was in great shape and I shot a 93. Greens rolled nicely.
Great Value
Course is a great value when booked using Golf Now. Greens in excellent condition fairways in need of some attention. I went off alone to my pleasure and played 10 holes before I caught up with anyone in front of me. Played through a foursome and went home without delay. Great pace of play
Thanks for the nice review. The fairways are Bermuda grass and will fill in as the heat comes and will be very nice throughout the summer. Hope to see you again

An undiscovered jewel
First time using online to book a round of golf. Went with my 16 year old son who's learning the game. Beautiful day, no delays and the course played very nicely. The staff was very friendly. It was probably a combination of perfect weather and low density of players, meaning no pressure to keep pace, especially since we had to look for a couple balls in the rough. I'll definitely play there again!
They need to have a Marshall
Theb4 playing in front of us had no golf etiquette and they were just ridiculously slow
Home Course
Bowie is a great course with a few challenges! It's no PB Dye or Anything like that, but it's great for the money. The people are nice and the course is really coming together. They've brought in new carts and the fairways are shaping up nicely.
Terrible Condition (overgrown tee boxes, bare fairways)
I played this course on a Sunday morning. The pace of play was good, but the course was in terrible condition. The tee boxes were so overgrown that it was impossible to hit driver. It was like teeing off from the rough. The fairways were completely bare and bumpy. The greens were in decent shape. They were very slow, but rolled true, despite a few patches of weeds here and there.
In summary, spend the extra $ or drive a little further to play any other course besides this one. Not worth paying any amount of $ to play.
I'm sorry for the bad conditions. If you came out today I think you'd see a marked improvement. Everything is now mowed but our BERMUDA fairways are still thin. A month from now they will be in and you'll notice a huge difference. We try and give the golfer an inexpensive golf experience. A place you can play several times a week. Thanks for your comments. We will try to make things better.
Good for the money
The front 9 seemed pretty easy to this not-so-good-golfer. The back 9 was more difficult, in my opinion.
Course needs work, but there is evidence that some work is being done. Lots of empty patches in fairways & tee markers where they are repairing the tee boxes. Most greens in reasonable shape and, without much rain lately, pretty fast. Clubhouse is obviously old, but serves the purpose. Check-in was easy and the woman running the snack bar was pleasant. They could use a few more markers to guide you to the tee areas on a few holes. We had to ask someone how to get to the forward tees on #10.
We had to wait on a few holes here & there, but not often or long.
I'd go back for $25. I don't think I'd pay more without some improvements.
Thank you for the kind review. This fall you will see several improvements to the course including pavement work, cart path work,resurfacing all the senior tees and bunker repair , includes new sand. Hope to see you soon
