Buffalo Hill Golf Club

Course Update • October 5th

From our General Manager:

Beginning tomorrow, October 6, the first tee times will move back to 10:00 AM. Starting Monday, October 5, the Golf Shop will be open 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM through the end of the season on October 31.

Please avoid walking on frosty grass in the mornings, including on the practice areas. When grass is covered in frost, the moisture inside the plant freezes and makes the turf blades extremely brittle. Walking across it, pulling a pushcart, or driving a golf cart over frosted grass can crush and damage the turf. The damage may not be noticeable immediately, but footprints and tire tracks can show up later and take weeks to recover, especially this late in the growing season.

Our Grounds Staff has worked incredibly hard to keep Buffalo Hill in great condition, and we appreciate everyone doing their part to help us protect the course as we head into the final weeks of the season.

Please Put Rakes In The Bunkers:

With the introduction of our new autonomous mowers, please place rakes completely in the bunker after raking the sand.

From Our Head Pro:

Thank you to everyone who completed our survey. We appreciate your kind words about our staff, and we hear your concerns about securing tee times, fairness in booking, and pace of play.

We understand how frustrating it is to be ready when booking opens and still miss your preferred time. Buffalo Hill serves passholders, daily-fee golfers, leagues, and tournaments, with many golfers seeking the same morning hours.

Simply squeezing more groups onto the course can create backups and longer rounds. Your suggestions about booking access, clearer communication, and stronger pace-of-play management will help guide our review.

You can also help by booking the correct number of players, promptly releasing unused spots, and considering alternate times when possible. Thank you for your patience and honest feedback as we work to improve the experience at Buffalo Hill.

From our Superintendent:

As we are moving towards colder temps and, oddly enough, the end of golf for 2026, we are raising the heights on the greens to help get them as ready as we can for winter.

We will be out with our bigger, driven rough mowers to help the robots mulch leaves.

We are a couple of weeks away from starting our irrigation blowout. We will do our best to not get anyone wet. My apologies if we do.
