Salina Municipal Golf Course — Local services in Salina

My mom lives near this course so I always golf there when visiting her and have loved this course. I was just there in the Spring and really enjoyed it. But they recently switched from the old gas carts to the new electric carts with displays and GPS. Great, right?

No. The two times I golfed last week with the new carts were terrible. I've golfed other courses with this technology and it was fine. They generally try to keep you from going too far out of bounds, onto other fairways, or near the greens or other sensitive areas.

Great instructor, very patient, understood what level we were playing at so gave us a few golf courtesy pointers, and emphasized having fun the whole time. No...

This course needs better maintainse, there are many places that have bare spots, in the fairways and on the tee boxes. The senior tee's which are the most used and much smaller is by far the worst they have ever been. Why you ask? It's because the Srs.are the ones that suoports the course the most. Also, if they don't get the irragation problem solved soon they will have...
