Challenging course

My son and I really enjoy Golden Hills. It's challenging, in good condition, and convenient to Lexington. Number 10 is a beautiful hole. The overall course layout is really nice.

Pace of play

Course is in premier condition. Teed off on time, unfortunately a single we invited to play along or play through kept pushing. As a two some the four some would not let us play through. Great course, snobby people.

Need to break into the 70s

Excellent course. Finally got myself hitting fairway drives today. The greens are challenging with holes changing every other day. Lots of trees. So playable even when hot, not humid. Beautiful day today.

Excellent Condition. Need Ranger to move people

Course in Excellent Condition. 4 par 3s with a few long ones make it fun. Newbies, carry extra balls for 5, 10, 11, 12, 16. Swing, Not Hit.

Saturday golf

Great friendly staff, carts were in great shape. Course layout was challenging with great greens. Some of the tee boxes somewhat bare. Front nine moved with good pace however the back nine became a log jam but still worth playing again
