Lucky Strokes – Bath, PA

Played August 5, 2o15

Reviewed by Mr. Tee

We finished off our trip to PA last Summer by sneaking in a round at Lucky Strokes, not too far from the ABE airport. Following Castlegate, we were ready for something special.

Rating:

Par  I was tempted to give this course a Birdie. All of the fake animals were a fun touch and the weird speaker rocks (see video below) were amusing. It was better than the other Par rated courses we played this trip but much like Lahey Family Fun Park nothing really moved it to the next level for me. The 18 holes wrap around a waterway and offered a variety of challenging shots. The playing area was a solidly maintained traditional green turf with a red brick border.  A waterfall sits at the top spitting out bright blue water and moves water throughout the course. Solid and moderately challenging course.

Apple trees throughout the course and the beginning of each hole had a stand to write down your score. The Pink Putter is relaxing on it in this photo.

First time seeing this option for prizes. We didn’t win anything.

The Pink Putter faired much better on the skill crane game though
