I played Kresson Golf Club early (6:00 AM) before going to work while they were cutting the greens and preping the sand traps. We played the men’s tees which at any other golf course would be the kids’ tees, measuring a total of 4800. First off, over priced ($23.00) for the conditions of the course, the score cards have not been updated in over 15 years, all the yardages are incorrect on the score card, the teeing areas and fairways are typical grass, the greens have improved and were a little faster than my last visit. With all that said, I shot a round of 82 on a beautiful sunny morning. My driving was good, only spraying a few tee shots off line, drove the first green than proceeded to three putt. My approach shots are good keeping me in play, I was hitting the ball pretty good this day with one birdie, 5 pars and three lost balls. Chipping was average and my putting completely sucked due to the poor greens.

FROM THE WEB SITE: Yea right, website?

COURSE CONDITION: Course maintenance has improved, my lawn at home is about equal. As stated above… the teeing areas and fairways are typical grass and the greens typically have no break. There are no diagrams of the holes (except for stick figure like diagrams on scorecard), no yardage markers anywhere, yardages are incorrect on the score card, leaves you wondering about yardages on most of the holes.

FACILITIES: They have a so called club house, no amenities really at all just a small putting green. This is an easy course to walk, 95% of the golfers walk this course.

SHOT OF THE DAY: 5^th Hole, Par 3, knocked it to 12 inches. Also, drove the first green.

SUGGESTIONS and COMMENTS: Good course for beginners, kids and really slow players. That’s about it, not much else to say. Take your little kids there to play, they will see lots of cool wildlife.
