very nice course. I'd like to see a few lakes/pond with fountains.

Hadn't playedhere since 2004, Not impressed with the general condition. I know the recent rains and cold weather have been tough on golf courses, but I goes beyond that. Not that it was bad, it just wasn't very good. I don't remember the greens being so quick when you're above the pin. Wow! My biggest grip is the slow play coupled with running so far behind. That is probably why it's been 4 years since I last played here, more than the condition. The staff was very nice given the situation.

Played with TheBigDog and met another GK member, moneyoff, who was paired with us by chance. A fine, windy day at Knollwood. Either into the wind or downwind, except for holes 1, 7 and 14. Got to p... Continue »

Played with TheBigDog and met another GK member, moneyoff, who was paired with us by chance. A fine, windy day at Knollwood. Either into the wind or downwind, except for holes 1, 7 and 14. Got to play 18 looking directly at the sun from tee to green. Should have hit it right like TBD (sorry bro). Just kidding, he kicked my a**. Good thing we didn't talk about money. Anyhow, the course looked pretty good for dead of winter: dormant rough and fairways. The greens were nice; soft and fairly fast. Looks like somebody's mower had a hydraulic leak. Many of the greens had tell-tale oil stains tracked across them. It might have an effect later. I have seen greens get burned by hydraulic leaks. Still, windy or not, we all had a good time.

Played with the Big Dog's Nov. 2nd tourney (Thanks BD). Course looked as good as I have seen it. The grounds crew is really trying here. Nice cut on the fairways (great striping with the mower). The greens have not yet healed from the latest aerification; close, but not quite there. There was a couple of greens that were starting to get some bermuda and kikuyu grass infiltration. In the words of Bob Marley, "kill it before it grows." Sand traps need a little new sand. Nice to see the GK guys also. The cart girl was as cute as a button.

Best shape I have seen in years. This course is a very fair test of ones golf game. However they need to only put out 8 groups an hour instead of ten and not allow 5somes. This would speed play up... Continue »

Played BigDogs Tournament -- photos to follow.
Greens were pretty bumpy. They don't roll true but that can be expect from areation. I would give the course another 2 weeks if weather holds to play again -- and they mow them. Service was exceptional for a public links. Cart girl, Gabby, appeared numerous times. She even called in to help us get a marshal to shuttle back one of our group who had to leave earlier. Very nice. Overall course played slow. Greens could use some time to heal. And fairways were dormant so expect a lot of roll. Good time had by all, just wish I could have played better.

Played 11-02 in Bigdogs tournament. Course track is challenging, but easy enough for every level player, not overly long and the par three's are manageable. Some of the tee boxes are not level and it was hard to find a spot where it felt like you could stand comfortably. The greens were very bumpy, but most of the ball marks seemed to be tended to. The speed of the greens were pretty good, if you allowed for the rough roll to the hole.
The weather was perfect and the company was outstanding. Had a great time out there. Another great outing hosted by a great couple. Thank you!
