Played This One Many Times and Average at Best Conditions, Still a Fun Round
I've played this course through the years. Expansive greens and a good layout. Average conditions. Tee boxes had bare spots and weeds but acceptable in most places. Fairways needed mowed and had bare patches and were looking rough in places. Greens were extremely hairy, long, and slow. However they were in good condition relatively and the best part of the course. Pin positions looked to be in the same spot since last month, but were in tough approaches. It was very wet so we didn't play in the bunkers, but they seemed to be in good shape. A great deal for the rate we paid, but seems to be lacking in overall maintenance for the year end. I'd go back for sure, but not spend a lot doing it..
Needs some TLC
I'm a regular at the Links. Overall, it's a decent course for the money...only $30 for 18 during peak hours. It's definitely not The Fort. The course could use some TLC in the sand traps and tee boxes; fairways were a little rough today...usually they cut it pretty course.
Bad Shape
Great staff, pro shop and snack bar personnel were friendly, helpful and top notch. Rest of course is really bad. Tees and fairways and roughs are full of weeds and crabgrass. Landscape timbers lining cart paths had rotted in several places it looks like the course has had minimal maintenance money spent on it in the past year. Sad, as layout could be challenging and greens have potential.
Nice golf course
We enjoyed our round of golf. There were only a few other golfers so we finished in 3 1/2 hours. The fairways were in good shape and the greens were ok. I visited several traps and trees and lakes. The course is not as pretty as other courses, without any hills, but it was a good value. We hope to play there again.
Perfect weather, course could be better
This course needs some work, primarily the tee boxes and sand traps. I was the first one on the course today and had a great time! I was able to play in a little over 3 hours. For $30, the Links isn't a bad track...it was definitely worth the money!
Worth playing
The course is fun to play. Huge greens! They are in decent shape. Cut a little high, but could be because of the hot weather. Fairways and rough needs some good TLC. Too many weeds.
This course could easily be great with a little work.
Needs work
Played ina twosome, tee boxes need work and the rough is full of weeds. Greens are exyremely slow.
Needs work, but not bad
I was the second person on the course, so the pace of play was extremely quick. The mowing crew was out, so the course was in pretty good condition overall. It's definitely not The Fort...but it was only $30 too. The bunkers needs new sand; most are hard pan. A few of the tee boxes need work as well. But overall, it isn't bad.
Place is trash.
I played there a couple years ago and it was pretty decent. So with that said I couldn’t tell you how disappointed I am that this place has gone down hill so much. The tee boxes are trash. The rough looks like it hasn’t been touched all year. And the bunkers are just dirt, no sand what so ever. I wouldn’t recommend you waste your time going to this course til they do a lot of work getting it back in shape.
Embarrassing
The staff at this course should be embarrassed with he condition of the course. Rough probably hasn’t been cut in a month on most holes. Regardless of the price the conditions are awful.
Awful shape
The course is in brutally awful shape. It's honestly hardly playable. Expect to lose loads of balls as the rough is not well groomed and dead grass everywhere makes it impossible to find your ball.
Goat Ranch
This place has never been the best but I expected a little more effort. Dandelions everywhere! Grass over a foot deep! Finally saw a lawnmower and the guy was cutting the grass by the parking lot. They should be embarrassed. Never will go back ,the large greens didn’t even hold a sandwiedge. This place has to be weeks from bankruptcy.
Poorly maintained
Weeds and dirt everywhere! Greens and fairways have weeds throughout and the roughs are literally nothing but weeds. Many bunkers weren’t even full of sand. Glad I only paid $10 to play. Layout was enjoyable. This would be a good course with even average maintenance!
Good as always
The Links has been my go-to course for several years now. The staff is always great, the course is typically in good condition. This past Sunday was no exception. The only thing they could really improve is the condition of the bunkers. They could really some new sand. It's definitely not the nicest course in Indy, but it's solid.
Disappointing
The course layout is great. I play it about once a year and the condition gradually declines each year We played on a great weather day and when we started and when we left there were about a dozen cars in the parking lot. I’m sure that they do the best that they can on the budget they have to work with. It’s sad to see a once great course in this condition
Great staff
Course has great staff always friendly and raedy to help. After playing this course more than 20 times I can say I have never had one problem with this course. Play move very good on this course.
Not in bad shape overall, for the weather we have had leading up to 3/18/18. Bunkers HAVE sand in them which is not true of most of the Other courses we have played since last Fall. Need some growing weather for greens and fairways grass's.
This must be the owner or someone that works there. Any partisan person that had actually played there wouldn’t have this opinion of the course. It’s trash!!!!!
