Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Hickory Hills Golf Club for optimal conditions?

You'll find Hickory Hills truly shines in the spring and early fall. The course conditions are typically at their peak, and the surrounding hickory trees offer stunning foliage, whether budding green or vibrant with autumn colors. We recommend avoiding the peak summer months if you prefer firmer fairways and less humidity.

What's the biggest challenge golfers face at Hickory Hills, beyond just hitting it straight?

The course's subtle elevation changes are more impactful than they appear on the scorecard, especially on the back nine. We consistently found that approach shots into greens like the uphill 14th and the tricky 17th demand precise club selection to account for false fronts and uphill lies. Always consider taking an extra club on those approaches.

Is Hickory Hills Golf Club a good value for the greens fee, and what should I expect to pay?

Absolutely, Hickory Hills offers exceptional value for the quality of the golf experience. You can typically expect greens fees to be in the $50-$75 range with a cart, which we consider a steal for such a well-maintained and engaging layout. It's one of the best bangs for your buck in the region.

Which hole at Hickory Hills Golf Club should I really look forward to playing?

The par-3 8th hole is undeniably the course's signature, playing dramatically downhill over a small creek to a well-protected green. It's visually stunning and demands a confident, accurate iron shot to avoid trouble around the green. We always look forward to stepping onto that tee box.

How is the pace of play at Hickory Hills, and are there good practice facilities?

Pace of play is generally excellent, especially on weekdays; you can often get around in under four hours, which we appreciate. While the driving range is functional, we highly recommend spending extra time on the expansive putting green. It accurately reflects the subtle breaks you'll encounter on the course.
