Day two of my Xmas present to my self. Played Bighorn yesterday and had another excellent day here at Stone Eagle. Course is amazing. Everything is in excellent shape. Our fore caddie Ned was great. Without him we would be still driving around looking for the next tee box. Fairways are cut tight, greens rolled at a medium speed and the sand was abundant. It was almost too soft. I kept digging my club in it too deep. Staff was great from the bag drop off to them putting your clubs in the trunk

I also played in the SCGA event on Mon. 5/15. Course is fantastic. Played with Keith, Brian and Steve all GKers. I can't really add too much more to Keith (sixpez) and Craig123 reviews. Our caddie Dean was very good. Trying to figure the speed on some of the greens when the slope of the mountains come into play is very confusing to me. I see a downhill put going towards the mtn. and I am told it is an uphill putt and vice versa. Course conditions were excellent and the staff was excellent. If you have an opportunity to play I highly recommend it.

Played Friday 05/05 on a golf trip with high school buddies. We stayed at the Sea Pines Resort and the golf was included. The rooms are a little outdated but nice. The food in the restaurant was good. Course is in good shape. It is a short executive course with 5 par 3's and 4 par 4's. With the exception of the first hole at only 100 yards all the other par 3's are from 160-200 yards long. Tee boxes are a little beat up but the greens were very nice.

Played 05/06 on a cold windy day. Course is in very good shape all around. Played the white tees at 6000 yards but with the wind blowing it felt like 7000 yards. It was at least a 2 club difference and it always seemed like I was hitting into wind. The surroundings and the greens are the best part of this course. Tucked into a state park with diabolical greens make this a fun track.

Played in the GK Guru group with Keith, Kevin and Brian. I really like this course. I think it a fair test of golf. The course is in very good shape. A couple of tee boxes did not feel level but other than that it is in great shape. The greens were in better shape than the Firecliff and seemed to put a little faster. Fairways were in great shape along with the rough. There were no bare spots anywhere. Sand traps were soft and had ample sand in them . Will definitely come back

I also played in the GK Guru rounds today with Kevin and Brian. I can't really add much to the review Keith (sixpez) gave. Course is very good shape. The one thing we could not figure out were some of the sand traps that had vegetation growing in them. Is it a sand trap or a waste area now. The Firecliff is a good test of golf especially the greens. There just did not seem they had many flat spots on them. The pins were in some diabolical positions. Very friendly staff, and saw the beverage cart girl several times

Played in the GK Guru round also with Nick, Keith and Brian. Course is in fantastic shape. Tee boxes were very good, Fairways were excellent, greens were great with the exception of #6. Speed was medium fast with a lot of subtle breaks. I was in one sand trap and it had plenty of soft sand. For a resort course I found it semi difficult with all of the bunkers that are placed where your tee shots land. Water stations every 3 holes and the cart gal came by several times. Went upstairs for happy hour and the burger/beer combo. Food was very good. Highly recommend playing here

Played it the GK Guru group on Monday 12/11. Course is in very good shape. Tee Boxes are good with the exception of a few of them that have some divot damage. Fairways are lush, not much rough to speak of and the bunkers have a lot of sand in them. I almost needed help getting myself out of there. The sand is deep and soft. Greens are very good. Customer service is friendly. Having played both the Firecliff and Mountain View courses I have to say the Firecliff is the more difficult.

I also played in the GK Event on Sun. 12/11 Played with Andrew, Kevin and Ben. You couldn't meet three nicer guys. Course is in great shape as other reviews have pointed out.
The only flaw I noticed was the grass in tee boxes was a little long. The greens were soft and held shots and putted quick. Fairways were lush and the rough was not that long but it was sticky. Customer service was excellent.
A big thank you to all the sponsors who put up the raffle prizes and to Johnny for setting this up. There is no way I could play these courses without the GK Events and Meet-Play

Played 12/10 Course is in very good shape. Tee Boxes very good. Some of the Par 3 holes did have some damage. Fairways are in great shape. There is very little rough to speak of. Greens looked great although some had a discolorization to them but did not have any effect on the putts. Sand Traps were a mixed bag. I was in 9 of them today. Very inconsistent in the quality of the sand. Some were like clay, some were very wet and some were very good. Customer service was very good. POP was 4 hours and 20 minutes.
A very good test of golf.

Played 11/18 with friends with some kind of deal. Played the white tees (6000 yards) in about 4 and a half hours. After playing a couple of courses in Vegas last week I got kind of spoiled on the conditions, but this course is in very good shape. Tee Boxes were level but the grass was a little long on a few of them. Fairways were semi firm and not lush but not thin either. The rough is high and thick. WE lost three balls in them and stepped on a couple of others. Sand traps were a mix bag, some very good and some needed more sand. The greens were semi fast but quite bumpy. Course can be windy at times but today very calm with just a slight breeze which made you think about taking an extra club on some shots or one less club on the downwind shots. This is a great course with some of the best Par 3's around

Played in the GK Plays on Saturday 11/12. I thought this is what the Golfing Experience should be like. Great customer service, outstanding conditions. I only wish I felt better to really enjoy them. I thought this was a great test of golf. Tee Boxes were great, fairways were very lush but a little soft, rough was tough, greens were firm and semi quick but did hold good approach shots and the sand was very good. Great clubhouse and amenities.
Thanks Johnny for setting this up.
