Organized really well from parking to concession stands. Little trouble Saturday finding concession stands on back nine. Sunday morning we waited almost 30 minutes at clubhouse restaurant outside without waitress ever coming, we finally got up and left. People and volunteers were great, helpful and courteous.
What a great time! Highly recommend to see this next year!
This was my first pro golf event and it was quite a surprise. We got right up to where the players teed off and the one hole we were right by where they putted.
Able to get very close to the action with a lot of accessibility to most holes on course
This is an awesome event and I will go again next year with my grandson. It's amazing how you get so up-close and personal with the players.
The great thing for fans spectating at Firestone is the old style course layout is perfect for easy viewing. Course was built for members walking (with caddies carrying their clubs) which means the holes are in close proximity to one another. Even if you sit in a bleacher area, it is easy to pick up a favorite player and walk for a couple holes and then return to your seat. the only reason I rate the experience a 4 is that the prices of food and drink were a bit pricey - for ex. my son has been to the Masters and raved about the reasonable food prices - the classic $2.00 pimento cheese sandwich according to him was awesome - that said whats fun for me is that I first visited this site as a young man in 1967 - to remember Jack Nicklaus hitting a 4 iron to the 220 par 3(in the days when the 4 iron had more loft on it) -and landing his shot hole high with the "old style " clubs and ball - and then to watch the modern players bomb away and have trouble getting close or on the green is a great memory - I would recommend to any fan of golf to at least once in your life to visit this classic old venue.
My father and I went on the Wednesday practice round. The public parking and shuttle was convenient. We arrived 9-ish to see Bubba Watson headed to the 17th tee. Throughout the day we were easily able to see tee shots and green practices up close with no problems. Golfers were relaxed and frequently stopped and spoke with the fanss, especially the younger ones. The generally talked even when players were hitting, though the crowd did not. The course is hilly, with most holes playing uphill or downhill. Food was reasonably priced. $20 for two burgers and two waters. The best part was being so close to every tee shot. The marshalls were friendly and talkative. It was good to see the elevation changes in person. You don't get that perspective on TV.
We decided to follow Bubba Watson and Dustin Johnson for holes 10-18. The course was awesome. The weather was perfect; very warm but the clouds for once kept it just right. It is just amazing what these pros can do, even when missing the fairway! We ate a burger from Swenson's. Loved the way they had staff taking the orders out in the crowd, then calling out your name. (Wouldn't want to be the girl yelling out names all day). We parked off site and were shuttled to the course; no hassles. Would definitely attend this event again.
An excellent event that is extremes well run by the PGA!
I felt that the whole event and country club were both at top notch. The walking paths were easy to maneuver and the volunteers were very friendly and helpful.
Nothing much to see !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get to see the worlds best and highest ranked players on a course like Firestone!!! What else needs be said!!!!
Good overall. Liked the food trucks. VERY DISAPPOINTED with ropes being moved back by 16th green! This was the spot my brother, sister, and I liked to go to on Sunday. It was the spot my dad wanted to sit at when he had cancer back in 2011! He passed away before the following year's event. We have been making it an annual event for the 3 of us and any other family members able to come. Tell CBS they have plenty of other good spots for their cameras!!
The PGA and Firestone CC people did as promised as I have difficulty moving around. The PGA Tour Experience is far better than any Sporting Event I have ever been to. The Players actually touch and give balls away. I took my 10 year old g'son who loved it. The people were so nice to him. Gotta go to another PGA Tournament. For certain!!!
It was a good PGA event, was anticipating bigger crowd but I guess because of the rain not many people showed up. Amenities were good, wish they served better food.
Had a really nice time at Bridgestone. The weather cooperated and the field was amazing as usually. The course was in good shape, the concessions had a lot to offer especially the fan zone. I loved the grey goose bar and the café with the rice bowls was really tasty.
My wife and I went on practice Wednesday. We enjoyed watching and following the great players while they practiced and had a few laughs with each other and also the audience. A great time was had by all.
What happened to Budweiser? No choice of brews at the event was disappointing.
awesome. already have plans for next year. we plan to go earlier in the week to see how that is. maybe still go on sunday
Getting the tickets was easy and accessing them for printing went without a hitch. Firestone is a great venue, and one that all golf fans should see. We were fortunate to buy during a BOGO promotion, so we hope the event does that again.
