I tried golf as a teenager, and couldn't get the hand-eye coordination down. Don't kid yourselves, I still can't. I was designed to sit in front of an Excel spreadsheet, not stand in front of a golf tee. Stone Meadow Golf has completely turned everything on its head. Don't get me wrong, my hand eye coordination is still as real as the Loch Ness Monster, however the lack thereof is no longer as scary. Stone Meadow has a driving range and a 9-hole course. Both are priced very reasonably, and (at least for the 9-hole), equipment like a wedge, putter, and two balls. The course was very approachable and non-intimidating for a newbie like myself. The staff were also helpful and friendly. So, while I don't see myself becoming a person who holds for fun on his own, including owning one's own clubs, when my friends have an open invite for Stone Meadow, I will absolutely join them if I'm in town).

5 hours ago November…read more29th, had 2 confirmed tee times at 6:45 and 8:54. Was told there would be a frost delay of roughly 2 hours 15mins. Fair enough, I understand its almost December, no issue with that. So basic math would tell you our tee times are now right around 9 and 11:10ish. We tee off right after 9 and play right at 2 hours. Again, basic math would tell you we are now roughly 15 minutes early for our 2nd tee time. When we check in with the 'clipboard' guy for our 2nd tee time, he tells us right away "its not looking good" but he goes in to check in with the clubhouse. We're a little confused as again, everything was delayed and moved down 2hrs 15 mins. Not too complicated. Clipboard guy comes back out and tells us "bad news, not looking like we can get you guys out. We're so backed up from the delay." At this point none of us know what to think as mathematically and the way time on this planet operates, we had two tee times 2hrs 11mins apart. Played our 1st nine in just at 2 hrs, so we are early for our 2nd 9. But now we are being told we can't play at all. While talking to the Clipboard guy, the Starter walks up to us and immediately gets defensive and repeats over and over there was a 2hr and 15min frost delay! And we reiterated we completely understood, but if everyone was pushed back, then our 2nd tee time, which we are early for, was also pushed back. Starter would not budge and one point just said "well I'm the Starter", which is not helpful at all clearly. Course is very mismanaged. Clearly a course that prefers their regulars to any other customer that shows up on time, plays quickly and has the audacity to expect to play both tee times they booked. With the amount of courses in the area, it's absurd that a 9 hole course that is a generous 'executive course' at best can't coordinate a frost delay, which is extremely common in New England. Curious if anyone from the course has thoughts, but I'm sure they're busy looking for groups in the parking lot after telling a foursome that was ready that they can't play

Butter Brook is one of the better public courses in the area -- always a solid round. The layout is…read morefun, fair, and gives you a little bit of everything: open holes you can let it rip on, tighter ones that force you to think, and some sneaky greens that can catch you off guard if you're not paying attention. Course conditions are usually very good, especially considering the price point. The fairways roll nicely, and the greens tend to be well-kept and quick without being unfair. Pace of play can vary depending on the day, but overall it's managed well. Only reason I'm holding back that last half star is the clubhouse and food scene could use a little boost -- nothing bad, just nothing to rave about either. That said, the staff is friendly, the value is great, and I always look forward to coming back. Definitely worth a tee time.

After completing my second visit to Big Sticks Golf in Burlington, MA, I decided to write a review…read morefor Yelp! My first visit was very positive and it prompted me to come back. I booked the golf simulator which allows for independent play as a solo or with a group of up to four where you can play practically any course isn't he world, practice at the range, or just analyze your swing. Because this is a golf simulator, you hit specially designed golf balls into a screen where various monitors and sensors pick up the trajectory, ball spin, velocity and forecast distance and accuracy. The results are very realistic and the distances from my own club selection are surprisingly accurate. While the tee to green is highly comparable to real life, the short game does take some adjustments. The staff at Big Sticks Golf was friendly and courteous in welcoming me, offering an empty bay to take some warmup swings and then logging me into the simulator. The rest was up to me. Again, the experience was lifelike enough to work on my swing after many winter months off. Where I was advised by their on-line booking site as well as talking to a member of the staff that an individual can play 18 holes of golf in under an hour at $55/hour. I played pebble beach and enjoyed it very much, despite losing too many strokes around the greens with finicky technology that requires some getting used to. For my second visit I booked 2 hours and played TPC Sawgrass twice since the PGA tour was there this week. Again the staff was courteous and assisted me in getting set up. While my tee to green game was still good, I experienced notice improvement in the short game vs. my previous visit. Using the "aim" on the monitor vs. trying to compensate with your actual stroke is key. I was very pleased with the experience and not only played the course twice shooting in the low 80s each round, but I also had 25 mins remaining to hit the range and work on various clubs and my swing. It was well worth the money and I am really looking forward to the warmer weather getting her to keep the momentum going on my regular outdoor game too. When it may be more convenient to play a quick round indoors, I will keep this establishment in mind all year round. Check out Big Sticks Golf and don't let the snow, cold, early season conditions or summer rains limit your golf game.
