Disappointing

Course in very poor condition. Very wet, water in bunkers and greens awful ( 2 on temps) dispute hot sunny conditions of last few days.
Played here last year and quite impressed, but won't be playing here again. Very disappointed to see how the course has gone down in less than 12 months.

Dont bother

This course is abysmal. I used to play here a lot when i was a lad and have some happy memories, however it was an average course back then and i thought that maybe in the 25 years that have passed it would show some improvement. I was wrong. If anything its worse. I played at the end of june when courses should be coming in to their prime however the greens were in a shocking state. There were plenty of patchy areas with barely any grass and then other areas of the green the grass was too long. They are the slowest greens ive ever played. Lots of areas where the grass on tops of the bunkers and around the fringe were bare and dry, resembling a texan desert. As for the bunkers themselves, well, they are awful. It looks like someone has gone round and tipped a bag of pea gravel in each one, they are not so much sandy as stony. Plus many of them do not have a rake in.
Tee boxes and hole signage are tired and need attention. The rough is an absolute nightmare, if you run just a couple of feet off the fairway your ball ends up sitting down with 2 inches of long grass behind it. You will need a scythe if you venture in to the heavy stuff, its up around your knees. Wayward hitters will need to take about 20 balls with them.
The course in general is just long, straight, flat and boring. Theres nothing that makes it interesting whatsoever.
There are far superior courses in the area for a similiar price where the difference in quality is massive. My advice is pay an extra £7/8 and go and play a proper course that is well kept and that puts the golfers experience at the forefront. This is not a course for serious golfers and this is reflected in the total lack of dress code. I saw one bloke playing with his builders work boots on aswell as others in trainers and cargo work trousers.
I wont be playing here again and you should avoid it.

Hadn't played here for a several Months Played On Wed Mid Morning. It was very popular but I have to comment on the (Non) Golf wear. Are jeans now acceptable? Several playing had them on. There was even one player in a Football shirt. At one stage Staff on a buggy even chatted to the offenders with no comment at all so I'm assuming as long as you've paid you can be as scruffy as you like. Yes I know it's a Municipal Golf Course but surely there should be resonable standards at any Golf course.
I liked the course because it's relatively flat to get around & if you enjoy Aircraft then it's ideal! However the greens are not good & the whole impression is that the course is slowly been run down. Shan't be going again soon.

The course seems to be in a worse state since being taken over. The greens are in such bad condition and compared to other courses in the area. The staff arent as welcoming and dont seem to care about customer service snd certainly dont get the warm welcome we used to get. Despite all the changes all it seems is that they care about the gym and not the golf course. Dont think we will be going back

Disappointed

The new gym has took priority, course needs desperate attention and they need to stop charging as if they are one of the best in Birmingham. Very overpriced and very disappointing. Marshall’s needed to stop teenagers walking onto the course damaging greens and bunkers. The management should open their eyes and sort these problems out ASAP.
