Elliott's comments: "The course is in good shape. It should come around. We just haven't had that warm weather yet."
What's new for 2008?: New fleet of golf carts, new rate for senior golfers.
Bent Oak history: A new ownership group took over Jan. 1 2006 with the promise to make Bent Oak a venue for the novice or experienced golfer.
Why should I golf here?: Improved conditions and the values and promotions offered at the course. Some promotions offer prices as low as $15 with cart for 18 holes. The course is probably in as good of shape as it's ever been in the final year of a three-year remodeling project.
