Mystic Rock has been billed as a top public course in PA for years and I finally had the chance to see if it lived up to the hype. This track did not disappoint. Pete Dye on a mountain with what feels like unlimited land.

Fun, BIG, crazy, occasionally misguided — very Pete Dye. Has some great holes, some head scratchers, but overall positive and worth checking out at least once. Expansive, great views, well-manicured.

Around 50% of the original fairway and greenside bunkers were turned into grass bunkers but playing the course as it currently stands there are still plenty of hazards to navigate to keep your attention especially when the fescue is up. The course still tips out at 7100+…

Once a PA public course gem, the conditions of toms run have hit a new low. Dead spots on most greens(some with 0 grass), rough tee box’s, and brown fairways all lead to a disappointing experience.

A south pittsburgh staple Victory hills is one of those public tracks that’s on everyone’s rotation. Clubhouse that looks 100 years old? Check. Carts with no auto brake that might run on diesel? Check. A hole that borders a horse stable right in the flight path of most slicers?

Really want to come back here and play not in the context of a scramble. Deeply enjoyable in all the ways you want a golf course to be.

Unique layout with a couple quirky/odd holes. The condition was beyond terrible with the drainage being just awful. Not a fun experience.
