The Copper Golf Club review

The Copper Golf Club has been a community fixture for almost 100 years. The staff know all the regulars by name and make you feel like family. For those in and around Magna, this course has a special place in their hearts. This is a nine hole track. 

The clubhouse is old and very outdated, especially on the outside. The pro shop opens up when you enter through the entrance doors and there is a nice bar area with lots of seating and large television screens. 

The practice facilities are not great. The driving range is extremely tiny and narrow, with a max distance of 175 yards. Mats were out but I also saw divots so I wonder if they are optional? A baseball field sits right next to the driving range, making it feel like an odd place for both attractions. Two practice putting greens, one average size and the other tiny. Both were in terrible shape with dead grass and mounds of dirt surrounding each. 

The course itself was also in terrible shape. Weeds overran the entire course; including the tee boxes, fairways, rough and even on some of the greens. Tee boxes were lumpy and uneven. Bunkers were dirt filled with bits of gravel. 

The staff often had blue tees as the tips and other holes the whites were laid out as the tips. Very confusing. 

The course has some fun holes and has some pretty, visually appealing spots throughout. Unfortunately, the course conditions put a damper on those highlights when you see weeds throughout the entire track. If the course could be cleaned up, it could very well be a nice, average Utah golf course. 

While this course can offer some nostalgia and hometown pride for those living close to the area, the UGG would recommend going elsewhere if you have other golf options.
