biased management, Sep 27, 2007

reviewer: Art from Ofallon, IL

Visited course for 2nd time this year; first time marshalls pushed and hounded groups to keep pace; which we were doing, because mgmt had tournament starting shotgun, wanted to get us off front 9 to start tourney. Marshall staring down our throat most holes. Second time groups had 3 tee times consecutively and marshall aggresively tells golfer to tee off before the groups tee time and the guy reports to me he feels rushed. I state we're not going to be rushed today and head to tee box. Cashier states you have time, three guys tee off and the golf pro or mgr comes out to tee box and aggressively states we need to get going. I told guy 3 already teed off and the other is on the way; we are not going to be rushed and regardless how many guys show we still have three tee times. The argument escalated because of another tournament, two high school teams sccheduled along with our tee times. Mgmnt threatened the police because of the debate and our three groups were leaving within 5 min. of our first team. Is this how you treat the customer? Is it scheduled tee times vs tournament or is it the race card that determines how one is treated at Belk Park.

A Great Value, Jul 27, 2005

reviewer: Jim from Belleville

What a neat layout. The greens are in great shape but the real star of this course are the zoysia fairways. It was imposible to get a bad lie in the short grass. I'll be back again soon

Spring Review 2004, May 21, 2004

reviewer: Anonymous from St. Louis, MO

The course it a bit pricy (45.00) The greens are not in the greates shape. The rough is over cut with the clippings left. It is a pretty difficult, however this is a 30.00 course with country club aspirations. The rules are a bit strange. The clubhouse is very small. fairways are not always mowed in a timely fashion. currently they are airating the greens. A bit late for this time of year.

Golfable Golf Quote of the Day:

" If you want to take long walks, take long walks. If you want to hit things with sticks, hit things with sticks. But there's no excuse for combining the two and putting the results on TV. Golf is not so much a sport as an insult to lawns. -- National Lampoon, 1979 "
