Yardages Are Key

Short, tight course where it’s important to know your yardages. Setting yourself up off the tee is important. If that’s dialed in, it’s a fun round.

I had the course to myself and played at lightening speed. Course staff was extremely kind and helpful. Rental clubs are top quality Titleists.

Lovely course

We had a blast playing Torch at A-Ga-Ming. It was the perfect day for it too! Staff was super friendly. The views from bar/restaurant were amazing. And we basically had the whole course to ourselves on a Thursday afternoon!

Great layout

This course is really nice, with some fairways going downhill, others with a bit of side hill slope. The views of Torch lake add a bit of scenery to the round. A few of the greens were still recovering from the winter, but overall the greens were in great shape for late spring. If you end up in the woods, keep an eye out for poison ivy, there's quite a bit of it.

Meh…

We golfed this course and we’re not impressed with the conditions. Tee boxes were really torn up. Ladies tee boxes were very “jumped” on certain holes. Wish we would have paid the extra $20.00 for Sundance.

Nice layout, course needs attention.

A course that has a very fair layout, wide fairways. The tee boxes were not in good shape. The front nine greens were sculded by the mowers. The greens were better on the back nine but the tee boxes still terrible.

I think the majority of the maintenance and care goes to the Sundance course and this is neglected. Torch lake views on 3 holes. Deer roaming. Nice layout but could be a lot better.

A-ga-ming Torch outstanding value

Beautiful vistas, open fairways, and well bunkered. Just under half the holes have water in play. Fairways and tee boxes were in excellent condition as were the bunkers. While the greens were a bit slow, they were otherwise in excellent condition. It was a fair test of golf, not overly difficult or "tricked up".
