Wanted to let you know that Indian Springs is currently running a $25 Special for Advanced tee times booked Monday – Thursday before noon. This rate will be good through September 15th. Make sure you book your time on LMG at least 24 hours in advance to lock in this rate.
For those of you who haven’t been to Indian Springs this year, the course offers mature scenery, a comfortable clubhouse, and easy to get to location 19 miles west of Dublin right on 161. It’s also known to be one of the best valued courses in the area. We often get feedback from a lot of Columbus area golfers that they enjoy coming out and experiencing the smaller crowds, which results in quicker play. The greens, fairways, and rough are all in great shape! We’d love to see you out.
Good Luck,
– Bryan
(Club House Staff)

350 yard par 4 first hole at Darby Creek Golf Course
We headed out to Darby Creek Golf Course in Marysville, Ohio. I hadn’t been to Darby Creek in ages. Actually, the last time I had been there was for the Beek Open. Normal walking rate on a weekday afternoon is $26. There’s a $3 discount if you book online and print out the coupon to show them. I went with the Divot Card and paid $11. The Divot Card saved me $12. I’ll have to use the Divot Card about six times to break even.
The first hole is a dogleg left. You’d probably be fine with a five or six iron off the tee. It doesn’t play anywhere near the 350 they claim.
Approach to 350 yard par 4 first hole at Darby Creek Golf Course
This green is slightly elevated so if you miss it just right or just left, the ball will take a mean bounce off the mound. My approach hit the left mound and bounced/rolled all the way to the tall stuff resulting in a lost ball and a double bogey. Oh well, so much for easy pars.
