Great midlands course keeps you on your toes all round very wet front nine which was disappointing as only get to play it couple times a year bit of a old fashioned course. We were early for our round at 1pm no one was in front and they refused to let us out earlier! Weird in this day of much more serious stuff! Will we go back, we shall see !

Bang Average
Played last week, entering the place is strange and you do wonder what you are going to turn up to, but in all honesty it is not that bad, it has a couple of nice holes, plays short but so is everywhere at the moment, greens average at best, clubhouse ok but lots of work going on with new holes, could be interestingReviewer Rating

Played last week and I'm not sure we're some of the reviewers have been playing, greens are average at best, it has some great holes but some stinkers too. I agree the course is much better then the area suggests but still an average course in the midlandsReviewer Rating

A lot of divots on fairways. The green and the tees are very close together in some places. Friendly staff and other players. The fairways are wide in most places with bunker strategically placed to add difficult to the holes. A reasonable round of golf overall

After reading many of the reviews on here I was looking forward to my visit to Handsworth, I have to say I was a little disappointed, the course has some nice holes but nothing fantastic, the greens were on the slow side compared to what I have been used to lately and I lost 2 balls just off the fairway. Friendly welcome but did not do much for me.

Temp greens a real eye opener
I've visited South Staffs a few times and always been impressed with the course maintenance and fast greens, even if one or two members have been less than friendly in the past and traditions like needing over the ankle white socks have been enforced.Visited on Monday though and the course was on temp greens due to the morning frost, in fairness they did Tweet this but I hadn't seen it, as it was a pre booking a phone call would have been appreciated. Necessary evil to preserve the course but it seemed that after our 10am tee many of the greens we saw had seen good sunshine and didn't have a patch of frost on them but remained closed. The ?winter greens? were just holes on the fairway, not cut any shorter and it made putting pointless. (The cold weather was forecast so they could have been better prepared).
The real eye opener was that the course in hindsight is actually a little unimaginative and repetitive. Very flat and straight I soon came to realise all previous enjoyment had centred around the excellent greens, with these closed the course really has little to offer.
On that basis I can see why they do all they can to keep the greens in perfect condition which is commendable, however it felt as though if more members had been out (it was very quiet) greens would have reopened sooner; a phone call prior to arrival to advise of the situation and offer a cancellation would have been appreciated. Overall still a decent course with well sanded bunkers and well prepared tees. Mature trees and OOB are the only real characteristics and the fairways in places weren't quite of the standard experienced previously here so all in all it's one that has sadly gone down in my estimations.

Confused
When I review on here I like to think I am honest having played many courses over my life as a golfer. This all day long is a 3 star venue. Its not great but it certainly is not bad. Some good some bad holes and the condition around average that you will find in the midlands with average staff levels and budgets, worth a knockReviewer Rating
