What the club says: Opened in 1933 Pype Hayes is a popular mature course with plenty of subtly curved fairways lined with gorse and broad leafed trees, firm contoured greens and lots of deeply sanded bunkers. The key to most of the par 4's is to play an iron for accuracy off the tee as the greens are still reachable with a middle to short iron. Don't be tempted to attack the pin on holes 3,4 and 11 as missing the green often means a dropped shot due to the out of bounds. Play safe and be content with hitting the green, once on the greens you'll find them a joy to putt on. It is a course which is very forgiving and, apart from a few ditches, has no water hazards. It is not very hilly, but there are sufficient gradients to make it interesting.

Price needs to be discounted with weather conditions & state of course (bunkers), however enjoyable round with great clubhouse bar & restaurant. Friendly staff who provided excellent service. Mytime Active please invest money in what used to be the best course in West Midlands.

Improvement / Excellent Facilities

Played the course last week, must say I can see an improvement, however bunkers need some TLC! Great value for money, clubhouse has a nice warm home feeling about it, nice draft beer line up, food is excellent...Full English one of the best in Sutton Coldfield, plus don't have to be a member. Will be visiting again soon, 8/10.

Disappointing

As a group of golfers, we have been playing at Pype Hayes Golf Course for many years but stopped playing at this course 2 to 3 months ago as the bunkers were not being maintained either full of water or with no sand. Yesterday 3 of us returned to play the course again to find that none of the bunkers had been touched, and nearly all had a blue post placed in the centre presumably indicating a free drop. To be fair the fairways and the majority of the greens were in reasonable condition, but MyTime needs to spend some time and money putting the bunkers back into working order.

Good layout for beginners in particular . Course in shocking condition . Bunkers unplayable , greens crazy slow and were like putting on fairways , rough too long and unkempt . A shame really , just needs some money spent on maintenance.

a very poorly kept course, lots of long rough, cut grass on the fairway left across the approach to the green, 90% of the bunkers are GUR and the playable few have no sand in them. food and drink expensive, staff very friendly

Mr Jak

The course is so neglected it is a crime. I had played here before but didn't recognise it. Admittedly the wet weather has played a big part, but even the basics were not upheld. Very slow greens in poor condition. The fairway went straight to a jungle rough and the course layout was hard to discern.
It was much better as a municipal with care and love applied to the maintenance. It needs a lot of work. We traveled a good distance, but won't be rushing back. Members deserve better. Buggy broke.

Good in summer terrible in winter

The course is an absolute mudbath in the winter months flooded everywhere, if they are opening the course in these conditions they should lower the price as £26 is far to expensive for these conditions

Very nice course for the money

Very nice open fairway course, well worth the money, nice big open fairways, greens are decent, only the bunkers need some work as sand is compacted so hard to get club head through
