Southern Hills Golf Course Youth Public Tee Times

This is the best, well-cared for public course dollar/fun per yard. The front nine takes you through a challenging yet forgiving need for fades and draws. It advances every skill level with options to cut for a 150yd iron shot or to play it safe with the hybrid fairway. The elevation changes provides players with high five opportunities going around and over hills. The back nine feels like the course designer went off leash. The opportunities to be alone out in the wild teeing off into unforgiving yet playful landscape is of a dream. Taking risks on shots are rewarded though trouble if not strategic. Don’t skimp on reading the greens - a lot to roll with here. To add to the course, Sony + Jill (sp), among other team members such as Jay cutting the greens, are some of the friendliest staff. Club members such as Wally, Ron, Steve, Tom, + others are some genuine folk who care about this track. This is a well run, well taken care of golf course for the city of Hot Springs. 10/10, highly recommend. Can’t wait to run it back next year. Tip: If you can, play from the blues; some of the best tee shots are there.

First time playing this course and first time playing “up North” this year. It’s always difficult switching from “thicker” Arizona greens to northern greens and this course was a somewhat expected shock! The staff was very welcoming and took the time to explain the course layout since it was our first visit. Some of the hole to hole transitions are confusing indeed! We found really nice, fast, contoured greens that got the best of us. Overall a really well maintained course, but it does have multiple personalities! The predictable traditional layout of the front nine lulled us into comfort and the out of this world back nine made us realize what a challenging course can be like! No way both nines were designed by the same person! All in all, a great day out. Well done Southern Hills staff!

The course has beautiful views! The pro shop staff was friendly and very helpful. Course was in pretty good shape given the fact that its October. Will definitely go again!

Really enjoyed the course. Course is on the shorter side, but no way easier. Elevation changes cause some greens to be blind, thus if you haven't played here before you might have difficulty hitting the green ... I kept over shooting the green on a lot of the holes. But the course was in great condition, nice views, friendly staff ... all made our trip all the way from Maryland worth it.

This a truly a gem!! I only regret that we only find time to golf here once or twice a year.. Especially since we live an hour away.. The course is maintained very well, the greens had recently been aeratred. That wasn’t ideal but it’s all important for beautiful greens.. That’s the good news.. if you want a challenge. Then take on these greens.. Anyway it’s like golfing 2 different courses between the front and back 9 and it’s a day we look forward to when we golf here.. ALSO your Clubhouse Manager definitely deserves big Koodos
