Old at Saxon Golf Course Tee Times

Played again in early October. Leaves had not fallen yet. So course was clear and much easier to find your ball. Greens were in very good shape. Fairways were a bit patchy, but more than playable. Holes 9 and 18 are challenging holes with water in play on your approach shots. There was an automated grass cutter on the fairway of 18. Service here is always friendly and appreciated. Green fee was cheap on the Tee Time pass at just $20 for 18 holes. The course has a lot, and I mean a lot of leafy trees. They are on the perimeter of wide fairways on the front 9, but the back 9 is much tighter, and the trees become more of a challenge. Golfing on November 1st in western PA is always a plus, but those trees mentioned earlier make it impossible to find your ball if not on the fairway, and not that easy even in the fairway. The course did have 2 mtce workers trying to blow leaves out of play, but this time of year and with some wind it was a losing battle. The course was very dried out in some areas due to the lack of rain. However, the greens were in good shape for this time of year.

Best course in Western PA. The greens are phenomenal all year round. The grounds in general are so meticulously maintained.The Clubhouse staff are welcoming and customer service oriented. The rangers and starters are wonderful to deal with. I've seen a few negative reviews regarding Mr Pete. I must rebut those. Pete is always a positive and polite person whether he greets you at the Start of your round or meets you on the course to simply say hello or ask how the round is going. It always amazes me how people are so eager to make negative, false reviews but no one ever takes the time to make a truly positive one. Well, here's one for ya.

No sand traps, small greens, flat and slow play. If you are into that it’s fine, but I played it once and never again. I prefer a real course that has bunkers (fairway and green-side), has some good definition between fairway and rough, has descent size greens and that you can play in under 4.5 hours.

Really beautiful course! Mostly flat, very few hills and if any its very gradually sloped. Not a lot of hazards also. Mostly trees, and 2 holes have water hazard. Wonderful tee boxes, and fairways. Most of the greens are in great condition too. There was one or two where the green had some brown to it, and was either in a bad shady spot, or was over watered. But still wasn't a bad green. Only thing I would nit-pick about are the carts. The carts work fine, they do their job! But they are a little dated. The cup holders are small and don't accommodate bigger bottles of sports drink. And there is no metal to conveniently stick a GPS to. But again...this is just nitpicking. Overall it was a great course. Flat, open, and some variety, but mostly trees are the only thing you have to worry about. Pleasant, yet challenging!

This was my first experience at this golf course and let me tell you. I will never go back. The ranger Pete was watching my group like a hawk and stalking us during each hole. He came up to us and told us we needed to go play slow somewhere else. This was super uncalled for and unprofessional. This golf course needs to reconsider who they have working their golf course. He was super rude. Maybe he needs to consider retirement. We were just a family trying to have a fun Saturday playing golf. Do not go play here.
