Coincidentally, I played Indian Ridge the day you posted this message. If you ended up playing Thursday, you now know that the suspicions of this board rang true. The course was burnt out pretty badly. The greens were in pretty good shape, but the tee boxes and fairways were rough. It's a fun course to play, otherwise, but like the others said, it's pretty easy. I doubled the first hole, but then 16 holes later, stepped up to the #18 tee needing par for a 38 on the back and 79 total. Of course, I promptly hit my approach in the woods and doubled for a 40/81.
Later that day, we shot up to Hueston Woods for another 18 holes, hoping to get the old $10 after 4 PM special they offered when we were students at Miami. Not so much...it was $27 which was twice as much as we paid at Indian Ridge. (Thank you golfnow.com for the $12 rate.)
Strange thing about that day - there were storms popping up all over Indiana and Ohio. Cincy was getting pounded with rain, lightning and thunder. We could hear the rumbles and see the menacing clouds, but in 36 holes, not a single drop of rain dampened our day in Oxford. I did splatter Skyline on my shirt between rounds, though, because there was no A/C in Skipper's.
