Sooo windy and cold

January play is tricky anywhere in Missouri. Despite the cold windy day we had a great time. It would have been nice if this highly rated course had windshields on their carts. Really would recommend this course to anybody.

Winter golf

Though we are deep into winter golf, the course still looks great! The greens were smooth and fast. Staff was super friendly.

Absolute Gem

Arizonan in Missouri learned: hit the fairway, stay below the hole putting. Fast, smooth greens, held nicely. Not too may forced carries, but planning and accuracy pay dividends as places you can’t afford to be add up and crash your score. GPS on carts a plus. Play the proper tees for a fun round, I.e. play it forward (maybe) for me, the white tees.
Loved this course, every hole interesting and challenging. A few blind shots caused trouble, I would do better playing it again (and even again).

One of the best I’ve ever played.

Never disappoints

As usual Shoal Creek is a great golf experience. A bit pricey but you'll be challenged and satisfied afterwards.

Bad experience

Admittedly I arrived minutes before my tee time, but the older gentleman behind the counter was still rude after I apologized for not getting there earlier. After getting to the first tee, I discovered that there was a junior golf tournament going on that incredibly delayed the pace of play. I feel like this is something you should mention to people going out to play because as a single in a cart, it took me 3 hours and I only got to play 12 holes after paying for 18. I understand there was a good amount of rain the last few days but the bunkers were unplayable due to standing water. Green speeds were also very inconsistent and the overall course conditions were fairly poor. There were also huge spots in many fairways where there was only mud and it had been attempted to get covered up by throwing sod down over it which if you found yourself unlucky enough to have your ball land on it would have to move it off. Overall, it seems like the course is just mismanaged or could use some new staff and would also help to put some extra resources into the maintenance staff.
