Those courses you mentioned are nice courses, but honestly, will not be able to be mentioned in the same breath as the new Crooked Creek. The owner has VERY deep pockets, and wants to make it one of the premier courses in Kentucky.

 

Some of the changes include, all newly sodded tee boxes and collars around the greens, several new tee boxes, all bunkers re-worked with drainage and PGA quality sand, new irrigation system, several new water hazards, several new bunkers, several new fountains and water falls, and most of all a new level of commitment to keeping the course in tip top shape.

 

We also have a new proshop, lounge, restaurant, work out facility, lit tennis courts, indoor golf training facility with computerized video, and an unbelievable lit driving range. I've seen nothing like it anywhere, let alone in Southeast Kentucky. It is awesome!

What are the membership fees going to be? With the improvements I would think they will be fairly steep. I think they were around $1,700 the last few years.

Had a tee time at Olde Stone this past Friday and got rained out :mad: Second time I've been rained out there.

Drove out to it and it looked awesome! Can't wait to play it!

I have played there about 9 times, so I can assure you that you won't be disappointed.

Actually Natural gas.

I heard oil. Oh well.

Membership has not gone up that much. BUT, if you did not buy a membership during open enrollment, you now must pay a $ 15, 000 initiation fee payable over three years. Steep I know. The pro shop and new facilities are beautiful. The course will be great once all the changes are done.
