Actually everything was quite playable and there are signs of growth this week w/ the sunshine and rain.
Hey now, hole 16 has like a 10 foot drop from the tee to the fairway! A plus is you get to tee off three feet away from some guy's garage.
I enjoy it there I don’t think any members claim it to be something it’s not.
My experience, especially since it turned private, is they think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. In reality there's six or seven courses within 25 miles of Briarwood that are better tracks.
Curious what you think better? 25 miles DMG Wakonda Glen Oaks and Legacy are all out. Hyperion is nicer. TCI is cooler but their drainage sucks unless it used too. Toad Valley out Echo out. Harvester out.
So you can just go out and golf any time you want because you have a cart there and are a member?
I was only referring to public courses. Damn near every private course is better than Briarwood. You are right, I should have upped it to 35 miles. Otter, Jester, Veenker, Coldwater, Honey Creek, Legacy. TCI has its problems but is also under renovation. It is objectively a much better layout/course than Briarwood.
I didn’t think about Ames. Not a fan of Otter but to each. Legacy like I said outside of 25 miles. Like I said it’s nothing special but I’ll take my max 4 minute drive to golf basically whenever I want over 60 min round trip. Only place I would justify that is Harvester.
Harvester is easily my favorite in the state. I haven't played it since the renovation ~2021 but it seems even better than it was. Such a cool course.
Personally, Otter Creek I like better….Jester is still a decent track considering the # of rounds it gets annually…..Cold Water?? Or is that too far??
That is French for “the coma”
Played Harvest last year it is awesome and a beast. Also played Talons. Amazing they could get 18 (19) holes in that property but it works. The greens are lightning.
