Stonewolf Golf Club

There were no marshals on this course so pace of play was not good. My son and I played and it took a little over 5 hours, had to wait on every shot. People throwing down 2-3 balls, hitting extra balls constantly. I can’t recommend anyone to play a 5+ hour round of golf.

This is an interesting Jack Nicklaus design that gives several risk vs. reward opportunities on most holes. I enjoyed the greens which had undulations, swales, and were protected by large bunkers. I had to always be aware of the slopes on some of the fairways when launching my drives. The staff was very friendly, and the course is a must play for the St. Louis region.

One of the top courses in the greater St. Louis area. Tough course.

Course is in great shape.
Some of the bunkers still need work.
Fairways in good shape.

The last couple of years Stonewolf has had some greens keeping issues, but they now have the Head greens keeper Steve from Gateway and you can see the many new projects being addressed around the course. Including beautiful new white sand replacing the old (dirt sand) and continued aeration , seeding and sod placement around the course

Played as a single. Was not rushed and did not wait for the two-some in front of me. Course is in good condition. Couple of areas they are working on, so there is some ground under repair. Wish it was about $10 to $15 cheaper, then I would probably play it all the time.

Staff were very friendly. Pace of play was good. We played 9 in 2 hours. Great to have a drink cart, it was a hot day. Only negative was sand traps (yes, sadly, I was in one), were hard sand ). Fun course. We will be back. Thank you

The course is in terrible shape. Pin positions would be challenging for pro golfers.

- slowest round I have played in years. Too may slow players and no marshal. wont go back

I really appreciate and enjoyed playing this course today.

I played 99% of my golf at Stonewolf in the early 2000s when it first opened. It was an amazing place then. I have no idea why they switched the nines from the original design Jack intended. It makes no sense at all. The greatest player of all time should have his course layout respected and celebrated. The greens were all a consistent speed and quite fast, but very bumpy from a poa annua infestation. The pin positions were tucked into corners of greens and on slopes that made playing on a windy day almost unenjoyable. Lagging a short birdie putt because you don't want a 3 foot comebacker on the bumpy greens is not my idea of fun or good value. The bunkers were dragged but with a deep grooved rake. I found a bunker 4 times. Each time my ball was in the middle of a deep groove, so basically I had a buried lie each time. On 2 of the bunkers, the "sand" was mud and my wedge buried and I barely got the ball out. The other 2 bunkers had a thin layer of sand that was dried and crusty and my wedge drop-kicked. The zoysia fairways are dormant. Dormant zoysia normally plays fairly well but these fairways are completely matted down so every lie in the fairway was extremely tight. I'll be back but not until the middle of the summer. Definitely not worth the $60.00+ that I paid today.
