"Worth playing"
Got out to Springfield as I make my rounds for the updated Top 10 list (coming in May). This course has never left a great impression on me but I tried again to see if I could come to appreciate it. I made some strides in that direction, but a few things keep this course...
One course I don’t see on here is Green Oaks off of 601 south of Concord. If you are a beginner or want to practice your game without being pushed this place is great. $20 ($16 for seniors) is a great deal during the week. I’ve played a lot of courses on the list and I would have to say the money is in the greens. Right now I hate to say they roll more true and quick than some of the courses I’ve played here. Yes you may say it’s a dog track (very simple design with very short rough) but we all can’t fork out $40-$50 for greens fees (even with clickit). I shoot low 80’s so I’m not a hacker, but for some reason when you spend more money the “golfer etiquette” is out the window ie.. slow play, fivesomes, non repaired ball marks and so on. So when reading some of the recent past comments I agree with B-Man. This is an info site for us golfers to use. I’ve played Emerald Lake several times and never had any issues with the staff. Very pleasant and great to deal with.
