Really good old school golf course. Visually nice holes, and always in good shape.

Tough greens, so take a good look at the the read of the putt.

I have been saving the course

I had heard that the course had been redone and was in great shape lately. I finally got a chance to get out. It has always been hard to find a teetime.

I am excited to go back

MUST PLAY

As a local, I am constantly trying to find a “home” public course which is cost effective and challenging. Hendricks not only is cost effective, but in great condition and challenging enough for a mid handicapper like me. If you’re in the area, you must check it out.

Hendricks GC

I like the layout. The greens are somewhat battered. Some ballmarks are not fixed. Fall leaves are all over. Maybe by spring the course will be ok. I will play there again. Staff and starter were friendly and flexible.

Enjoyable Except

Many nice things can be said but if you have to wait several minutes to tee off on the last 15 holes it makes for a long day
That is something that you have in common with Byrne.

There used to be rangers at both courses who reminded slow players to move along. You did not even have to call the clubhouse to complain.

A ranger is a rare site these days and, if you should spot one, they are not at all effective.

It is a shame. My group is average in skill but we make sure that we do keep up.

Hello, Y4kCJ6DiN0lBthXjqmJm. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.

Much improved

Late season wear and tear shows up. Too many rounds played by people who do not repair ball marks,, dont replace divots and play slow. On a nirmal day this is 4.5hr round but it can go over 5. Rangers are slow to react after the damage to pace has been done.. BTW the photo if the course above if actually Francis Byrne 9th hole.
