Nice layout slow play

Deer Creek is a nice course with a good layout.
Greens are good and fairways are wide
This course has a starter but no ranger so pace of play becomes an issue in nice weather about 4 1/2 hours to slow for me. But when it’s cool or weekdays this course is open.

Great south suburban course

Pace of play was good. The only problem I see at the course is lazy people not fixing their divots on the fairways, and not fixing their ball marks on the greens.

Southside gem

Course was in good shape. Greens rolled good, but had ball marks on most of them. Bunkers were not being raked, and many divots were not repaired on the fairways. Still a great course to play at.

South side gem

Deer Creek is always in great shape. The course is challenging, and has it's fair share of water and sand hazards, which make you plan the safest route to the greens. The only problem I see is people aren't fixing their ball marks on the greens. It only takes a few seconds to repair your marks . Still, a great place to play. Pace is good. And the staff are friendly.

Great Suburban gem

The course was in good shape. Greens were rolling good, but had many unrepaired ball marks. I guess some people don't think they're responsible for fixing their ball marks, but I'm sure they will complain when there is a ball mark in their line on the green. Just takes a few seconds to fix them. There were a few people on the course who need to learn golf etiquette. Still was a good day on the course.

Local course

Deer Creek never disappoints me when I play the course. The fairways are in great shape, the greens roll at a good pace ( aside from people not fixing their ball marks). The traps around the greens are in better shape with adequate sand in them.

Solid Burbs Course

This was my first time playing this course and I can say I would play it again. It was not very difficult and fairly short, however the course was kept in good condition and the greens provided some challenge. There was a good mix of water, doglegs, bunkers, and tree obstacles. All things considered it was an enjoyable round. The rates are a little overpriced but just by a bit.

Do not rent clubs

The course was top of the line just beautiful the fairways and greens 😍 was on point. The only problem was I rented some clubs and they were something from the early 80's just old. I still shot 83. Then they only had a left handed putter but I am right handed still shot 83 😆 lol. I had fun.
