arrowhead golf course

Regardless of when you play, the course could stand to be in better shape. It always looks and feels like it needs the care of someone who understands golf to develop it into its full potential. Some of the staff are extremely friendly and outgoing while others don't really seem to care if you play golf there or not. The course requires you to play every club in your bag and the par 4's in particular are demanding. The 16th and 17th holes, I believe, need to be reconfigured. The greens are almost always on the slow side so you don't want to get used to that. The course does force you to stay in the fairway, and if you want to test your game this is a pretty decent course to play.

Arrowhead golf club is your a-typical Pa. Jeans and T-shirt golf course. Greens run very slow however getting to them is made difficult by the various shots you will see. Both the executive and 18-hole course require accurate approaches and creativity. The staff is very friendly. The one big issue here is slow play due to lots of high handicappers.

I have played Arrowhead GC in Douglassville numerous times throughout the years.It is a 27 hole venue, with the regular 18 holes across the street.The nine hole on the same side as the clubhouse is a nice warm up, with basically straight holes with 2 doglegs left, mostly up & down fairways. A little unusual to have large boulders in the fairway though (?) The 18 holes across the street start off with straight par 5's. The rest are a nice mixture of holes. Short & long par 3's. Doglegs left & Water holes. Note... there are no dogleg rights.NOW FOR THE NEGITIVES...Like I said, Large boulders in fairway on the 9 hole course.Conditioning on the course is bare minimum. Rough & fairways cut the same. Slow greens.Bathrooms dirty in another building nearby.Negitive attitude by owners in clubhouse. Seem like you are bothering them.We played in a scramble tournament there last year & will probably not play in another.They had golf carts lined up bumper to bumper, right next to each other. Could hardly get bags or yourself onto cart. No keys in cart. The daughter came around and you had to fill out a form that you had to print your name & address & sign before she gave you a key. Our one person just signed the form.I saw her look at it, put it back on cart and walked away. Later she came around & said you need to fill it ALL out! (WE ARE IN A TOURNAMENT! I never heard of such a thing, Like we are going to ride off & keep the cart.)I rode the course the week before the tournament with one of my fellow players.He signed for the cart & was charged a $5 deposit fee.(?)Upon finishing we returned the cart & went into the clubhouse for his deposit.They were putting carts away, going in & out of the clubhouse.She saw us standing there by the register & TOTALLY ignored us!We had to say "Um...Excuse me...We need our deposit back?)So the Average rating is for course layout ONLY, and what the course could be!
