The third, a dogleg left of 376, typifies most of the holes on this course: not long, but challenging in other ways. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Seven ( # 3 index) seems like one of the best par-4’s in Connecticut. This photo doesn’t reveal just how tough it is to make a par here. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Eleven is another great hole, its protected green seen here in the shadows. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Twelve, another challenging par-5, plays downhill and through the woods. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Green six is fronted by a daunting, frontal bunker with a high lip. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

The tenth hole’s green is set fairly close to, but below, New London Turnpike. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

This sprawling bunker flanking the right side of hole 11 is typical of the challenges abounding on these eighteen. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

The fourteenth green, at 560 yards, will take two Herculean shots to reach in two, but anything less may find its way into the small brook before it. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

Pace
Pace of play is the biggest problem here. Course is fine, greens were slow
Challenging but playable course
Enjoyed a round with another single golfer. Course including the greens are well maintained. My only complaint is the exit off the cart paths unto the fairways was quite rough.
Sloooow
Everything was good with the round except the pace of play. Almost 5 hrs to play 18. As a threesome that’s way too long. Group in front of us must have lost 2-3 dozen balls between them.
Slow pace on Weekend
Very slow pace on weekend. Course management tried to keep the pace but only helped a little. I have played there during the week and the pace was good!
Please!! No Beginners on Difficult Courses
I was a Member of Norwich GC years ago. I have always loved this course for it's challenge and variety. Saw a Tee-Off or Golf-Now deal at 3:30pm on a Saturday, and took it. Carts have to be back in at 8pm, so pace of play needs to be not worse than a four-and-a-half hour round. Easily done. But it was like beginner-paloosa that day. Had to skip holes three times and only got to play 14 holes. Not such a great deal, then. I don't want to pay *double* to play earlier, so I guess I won't be playing Norwich again.
Painful
Played there during the week it was a joy the course was in great shape the pace of play was excellent played there on the weekend what a mistake 4 hours into the round was only on the 11th hole they had five some, sixthsoms nobody monitoring the course it was ridiculous. Ended up leaving after 11 holes
Better and better
The course is in great shape The greens are full and quicker than usual .There was one temporary green that I understand is now open and the pace of play was three and a half hours
Norwich golf course
Course is in great shape rate of play was very good three hours 15 minutes and the food in the restaurant is excellent
Good deal
Great course for the hot deal. Tees were a little rough and 1 green is under repair. Greens could use some work as well. Staff is very nice. It's a great layout.
A Pleasant Round
All positives except the allocation of manpower. There were a ton of projects, maintenance, etc being performed, yet one guy with a leaf blower doing the greens would have made a big difference. There was too much stuff just laying on the greens.
Friendly Saff, great course
The course is in great condition.greens are very nice. Great value
