Edwood Glen Country Club — Lafayette, IN

Posted on July 5, 2013December 26, 2021

Rating:*

  • Layout: 3
  • Conditions: 5**
  • Staff: 5
  • Value: 7

TCS™: 4.5

— Not counted in TCS™, but just as important (imo):

  • Pace of Play: Fast (If you play twilight it is fast, other times, not so much!)

*All ratings are out of 10 possible points.

**Pictures in this post are from a wet and unseasonably cool summer round. If the weather gets hot at all conditions at this course easily drop to a 0-1. I am subtracting 2 from the score to reflect this “normal” set of conditions.

Commentary:

Played a solo round here Friday evening, scooted around a group of !6! and came back and played the skipped holes at the end. Played 18 in 2.5hours.

What can I say about Edwood? I have played here MANY times. The twilight rate during the week is $8 walking for all of the holes you can play until you can’t find your ball or need a flashlight to do so. At that price this is a good course to get your game warmed up. This is especially true in the spring because the only thing they water during the summer are the greens. This means by the time June/July roll around the fairways are in pretty bad shape and by the fall, forget about it!

Here is a rubric for how I would interpret the TCS™

10 – Simply amazing, go play this a.s.a.p.! Are you on your way?!
9 – One of the best, just not spot on "perfect" in every way. Play It!
8 – One of the best courses in the area; well worth the trip to play.
7 – Worth a round if you are within a reasonable distance. Good conditions and interesting layout.
6 – An above average course that is worth your time if you're close by. Should provide a nice round.
5 – An average course. Decent layout, decent conditions, and the value hits the sweet spot. The one to play after work for a quick round. However, it lacks an overall wow factor.
4 – Below average, but moderately interesting in places.
3 – A poor course. Conditions are pretty bad but the cost of a round usually outweighs the conditions. Play with your friends who are too cheap to pay for a better round of golf.
2 – Bad, but playable. Play it when you need some practice before spending $$$ on a "better" course.
1 – A very bad course, but often has a deal you can't pass up (e.g., I have played a few like this; got 18 and a cart for only $5, yeah, I'd play about anything for that too).
0 – The only way I'd "play" this course if it was in my backyard and it was free. I mean who turns down a free "driving range" which is all that this "course" is good for, not for golf but to hit balls at and forget about.
