I like Mowsbury as a course layout but the condition was very poor when i played it on the 5/8/20, the four ball i played in decided on the day that we were going to play prefered lies due to the condition , i took a chip out of my sand wedge whilst taking a bunker shot so not best pleased, the course needs a lot of attention so not worth the 25 quid just yet.

Shame

Used to be such a good municipal but now it's a shame the effort is not there anymore, GUR untouched for that long it's now got grass growing back, bunkers are poor, greens aren't what they were & staff are disinterested.

Getting there

the fairways are in a good condition with the slight rough off them making any wayward shots a bit trickier. The front 9 bunkers need the sand replacing, most look like aggregate or hardcore and the greens are in need of repair urgently, if only the company running it would spend some of the money they are making, especially as the bar is closed 9 times out of 10 too.

In need of some TLC

Visited this course in Bedford utilizing a voucher - a 90 minute journey. We were a two ball and arrived well before our tee time time of 1300. Both of us had a full breakfast with a drink, (cost at ?10 per person) which we thought rather expensive. Practice facilities were good with a driving range with a variation of cost for balls, we found the ?2 sufficient for or needs. Rather small putting green to practice on. The Pro Shop was scantily stocked but offered a drink if required. The staff were friendly in both the bar and Pro shop. So off to the course, set off 30 mins before our tee time - unfortunately behind a society of 30 and hence a slow round lasting nearly 5 hours. Overall the tee boxes were OK, but needed a cut, likewise the fairways also required a cut, it was often difficult to decipher fairway from the 1st cut. The greens really let this course down, on numerous occasions we were putting over a pitted surface with no true run. Bunkers had fine sand in them although a number were GUR. Overall the course is OK for beginners and society and has the feel of an old municipal course. I enjoyed the round, although painfully slow and unfortunately, i do not recollect a memorable hole or signature hole on this course that stood out among the rest, there are no water hazards either. We will not be rushing back to play but ticks a box.

This was a painfully slow round. We were following a large society that been allowed to play as fourballs and to overrun, and there was it seemed no-one anywhere chivvying them along. We were a twoball, and it took 4 and 3/4 hrs. I wish we had been told of the large society booking when I called to book the tee, as we would have gone elsewhere.

The course looked like it was struggling from the recent bad weather too. Very slow greens, and very bobbly.
