Are the renovations worth the new price?

I guess that depends on you honestly.. It is pricey but in the Baton Rouge area is the best course the public can still get on..

Beaver creek, the island, and copper mill offer much more

Well no, no they don't

The Island honestly is the only comparable course as far as experience and amenities are concerned.. and yes it's a cheaper round by about 20ish bucks are so pretty and sure they charge for range balls .. I do think that price is mainly dictated by its location.. Pull the Island 10-15 minutes closer into BR and they'd be able to justify a higher price.. I love the Island btw and play it often..

Beaver is a great course.. But if you like to hit range balls beforehand (i certainly do) that's gonna cost you extra and 18 plus a large bucket of range balls and you're almost what and what price wise.. Range balls are included at Pelican and you can hit as many as your little heart desires... Can't do that at Beaver and then there the post round.. I like to sit down have cold one and food afterwards and the offerings are there it just lacks..


And Copper.. Not sure why yall Glaze this place so hard.. a round on Golf Now for Copper for the weekend is 80+ dollars .. Now granted you can buy the Copper Card and have discounted rounds afterwards but initial round will run you $99. So you'd need to go a few time to make it worth it.. Also fricking driving range, the weakest practice area (if you can even call it that) of the three mentioned , the course is Mid at best and lacks personality... Granted there is food..

So no, when you take into account the whole package

I can’t recall ever hitting more than 50 balls before a round much less 90. No issue paying $7 for 30.

Just an overall awful course. They don't keep up with the course shape enough to charge out the arse like they do.

The renovations did nothing to help or change the course. All it did was allow them to charge $130 a round now

The simulators in the bar/grills is an absolute shite idea. Nothing like trying to chill and grab a burger and beer with the constant banging of players in the simulators.

that is the most Baton Rouge idea I’ve ever heard, what an embarrassment
