Great layout
Enjoyed the layout. Challenging with massive bunker complexes. Green were fast and for this time of year not in bad shap. Only complaint would be the bunkers which I was warned about by several people before going. Little sand, hard pan, lots of pebbles. Other ham the bunkers thought course was great and with a hot deal can’t beat the value.
A Must Play
If you love the challenge of the game of golf this is the perfect course. Every green is protected by at least 3 bunkers.Tons of elevation change and blind tee shots. Buy a yardage book before going out so you have some idea of where to hit. The greens rolled quick and true. My only complaint is that the players playing the course need to have more pride and respect for this course. There were far to many pitch marks in the greens and scuff marks from shoes.
Great old course, iffy bunkers
Wonderful old style design, meaning it is a good walking course and not jammed with a housing development. The 11th through 14th hole complex is beautiful backing up to open farmland. Course requires some strategic thought about how to go about getting from tee to green and avoiding the many, many fairway and greenside bunkers that will lead to more bogies than pars if you find yourself in them. Tees, greens, and fairways were in excellent condition. Bunkers had variations in sand and sometimes hard, sometimes not. Best advice is to stay out of them at all cost.
Pace of play was good for our twosome walking (about 3:50). It was a Thursday afternoon and we only had twosomes in front of us.
Overall, this is a good course that will challenge you while you enjoy the scenery.
Quality All Around
The course is located in the heart of Tanglewood Park. Beauty surrounds, with wild life in and out of the woods. They seemed to have trained the Canadian Geese to stay off the greens. Slow players were courteous and let us play through. The greens were in great shape, course was well manicured. Woods surround the fairways. Errant balls are easily lost into the woods, water in play on three holes. Rolling terrain. Very enjoyable to play.
Reynolds course is great shape
The Reynolds course is in great shape this year! The fairways are nice and the greens are perfect. They're not as fast as the Championship course, but they were in fine shape.
Aerated but very playable
This is a great course, I got a discounted rate because of the aeration of the greens, but I was looking to work on my driving and irons so was perfect. Course has a great layout with everything in front of you, but is still challenging. Great placement of bunkers and traps adds to the challenge. Birdie opportunities and many risk reward shots. I played by myself midweek, midday and finished in 3 hours! And that was with being cart path only and 15 minutes for a dog at the turn! Perfect day!
Bunkers are horrible
The bunkers on the course are horrible!! Pretty much no sand! Only dirt, mud, and rocks!
I didnt even bother to try hitting out of them. Just set the ball to the nearest refief to avoid unnecessary frustration.
Other than that the course is ok.
Course
Bunkers really bad but everything else is awesome! I hate goat tracks but this place held the 1974 PGA championship and it still looks awesome! Greens and fairways are awesome! Will play again
Great course. Tons of sand. Would like to have seen people fix their divots on the greens. Got to see about 12 deer while on the course. Played for $20 per person. Can't beat that for a former championship course.

First time I played this course. Course was in pretty good shape, only thing I didn't care for was distance between club house and 10th tee box. I rode today, but usually I'm a walker that would make me reconsider playing here again if I'm walking. This was the Reynolds course, not sure about champions.
Practice your bunker shots
Plenty of opportunity on this course- would rather have sand than water. Would like it better if there were a few range balls to practice before you tee off. Not sure why so stingy about that? Lovely course. Enjoyed playing and will play again.
Not perfect
The greens has some unwelcome sprigs of grass that could affect the roll of your putt and of course unrepaired ball marks but still played fairly well. The bunkers are still the same as always and I prefer them to what most other golfers like. Deep heavy or fluffy sand is difficult for me to control so I like these even if they were a little crusty in places. Fairways and greens mean good scoring opportunities but the rough was rough.
