Pitman Golf Course
Frequently Asked Questions
How challenging is Pitman Golf Course for an average golfer?
Pitman offers a really fair test of golf, not overly long but it demands precision. You'll find the tree-lined fairways on the back nine require thoughtful shot placement, making it more strategic than a simple grip-it-and-rip-it course. It's a great course for sharpening your iron play without beating you up too badly.
When is the best time of year to play Pitman Golf Course to avoid crowds?
We recommend aiming for a weekday morning, especially in the shoulder seasons of late April or early October. Pitman is a popular local spot, so weekend tee times fill up fast and can lead to slower play. You'll enjoy the course much more when you have a bit more space to yourself.
Is Pitman Golf Course a good value for the green fees?
Absolutely, Pitman is one of the best values around for a public course in the region. The green fees are very reasonable, especially if you're walking, and you get a well-maintained track for your money. It's not a resort experience, but for a solid round of golf, it's tough to beat the price.
What's the most memorable hole at Pitman Golf Course?
For us, the par-3 14th hole really stands out-it's a beauty and a beast. You're hitting over a small pond to a well-bunkered green, and club selection is critical with the prevailing wind. It's a true risk-reward shot that can make or break your back nine.
How are the course conditions typically at Pitman, especially the greens?
You can generally expect Pitman to be in solid shape, especially considering it's a busy public course. The greens are usually true and roll consistently, which is a huge plus for putting. While you might find a few divots on the fairways, the overall maintenance team does a great job keeping it playable and enjoyable.
