POP was fine at 3:50 but only because when we caught up with three terribly slow groups stacked up on 5/6 and no one behind us we dropped back and replayed holes 3 and 4.

Played Sunday 11/16 with a noon tee time. POP was fine at 3:50 but only because when we caught up with three terribly slow groups stacked up on 5/6 and no one behind us we dropped back and replayed holes 3 and 4. The course was CPO as to be expected given the intense rains over the weekend. We were lucky to not see any rain, though for those that know the course, it did not drain well. That being said tee boxes were 7/10, fairway 6/10, rough 6/10, bunkers 7/10 and greens 9/10. Despite the rain, these mightve been the best greens I have played this year. Smooth, exceptionally true but with some divots. Given their firmness the divots were shallow and easily fixed. My friend is a ranch member so we paid $150 which felt fair. Rack rate is close to pushing what I consider reasonable but when a dumpster fire like Skylinks is $100+ one needs to reevaluate how one judges the market. All and all - recommended at this time.

Played 11/13/25 @ 919am. Didn't think it was going to be so slow, but there were a ton of people like me from out of town. A 5 hour vacation round is not fun at all! This course has many out of bounds areas and everyone spends a lot more time than they should looking for balls. At the end, it was just tedious. Tee boxes were good to great with some not so level. Fairways had ex... » More

Played 11/13/25 @ 919am. Didn't think it was going to be so slow, but there were a ton of people like me from out of town. A 5 hour vacation round is not fun at all! This course has many out of bounds areas and everyone spends a lot more time than they should looking for balls. At the end, it was just tedious. Tee boxes were good to great with some not so level. Fairways had excellent coverage with no rough to speak of. The rough that was there was only an inch longer than the fairway and didn't stop balls from rolling off OB. This course places a premium on accuracy and if you're off, be prepared to lose balls. Sand was ok and was a mixture of sand, dirt and pebbles. Greens were rolling good and fast. Very little divot damage due to the firmness and balls had a tendency to bounce and fly off the back if you're not careful. The wicked 6 lived up to it's name with all but the par 3 14th playing up hill. The club house had it going on with all the fountains and the waterfalls just outside of the bar area- it was great sitting area for before or after your round.

Played 11/12/25 @ 109pm twilight- almost didn't finish before dark. It's cart path only for a little while longer after the overseed. Conditions were nice, borderline great. Tee boxes were nice and level with good coverage- par 3s are on the chewed up side. Fairways were really good with excellent coverage. Rough was only a little longer than the fairway and at times thick with... » More

Played 11/12/25 @ 109pm twilight- almost didn't finish before dark. It's cart path only for a little while longer after the overseed. Conditions were nice, borderline great. Tee boxes were nice and level with good coverage- par 3s are on the chewed up side. Fairways were really good with excellent coverage. Rough was only a little longer than the fairway and at times thick with some balls sinking down and hard to find. Sand traps were the only downside of the course with only a thin layer of dirt/sand over a hard bottom. Greens were awesome and rolled wonderfully. They were somewhat hard and dried out and balls would bound off if not struck well. Customer service was top notch with everyone friendly and trying to help you. I would definitely play this track again on my next visit.

Went out on Thursday 11/13, joining a twosome and another single, they all played blue I chose whites. Working backwards, the greens were in pretty decent shape, ran the quicker side of medium, were pretty clean and took deep pitch marks. Surrounds were mostly good for short game. Bunkers were not particularly smooth but the sand was good enough. The rough here varies but is no... » More

Went out on Thursday 11/13, joining a twosome and another single, they all played blue I chose whites. Working backwards, the greens were in pretty decent shape, ran the quicker side of medium, were pretty clean and took deep pitch marks. Surrounds were mostly good for short game. Bunkers were not particularly smooth but the sand was good enough. The rough here varies but is not usually punitive where there is grass. Teeing grounds generally had good coverage and were reasonably level — no issues there. Saved the fairways for last because they deserve more explanation. A little bit of recent rain has them looking a bit greener and while the majority of the surface is suitably playable with decent lies, there are thin areas throughout to the point you may occasionally bump your ball over to a fairway-worthy lie. The flip side of the rain is that some of the bare or thinly grassed areas were moist and made for sticky ground contact and I hit one. In the same vein, I also noted numerous spots, mostly in rough but on some fairways, where carts went through soft/muddy patches leaving short stretches of deep tire tracks. Inventorying these anomalies aside, I generally enjoyed the predominantly playable fairways. But, know before you go, eh?


Pace was good at just about 4.5 hrs and, with little waiting during the round, it seemed to move well. Overall, it was good enough that I could overlook the deficiencies and enjoy my round. With the volume of precipitation were are currently getting, I am hoping the fairways will bounce back from the summer with improving coverage.

Played on 11/13/25 at 8:24. Was cool in the morning then got warmer than was expected.
Tees: mostly wide, level, with good coverage
Fairways: most tee shots had very little roll out, good condition, good to play from
Rough: the rough was rough, long and wet. Most balls sat down and made judging shots difficult to say the least.
Bunkers: I wasn’t in any but they ... » More

Played on 11/13/25 at 8:24. Was cool in the morning then got warmer than was expected.
Tees: mostly wide, level, with good coverage
Fairways: most tee shots had very little roll out, good condition, good to play from
Rough: the rough was rough, long and wet. Most balls sat down and made judging shots difficult to say the least.
Bunkers: I wasn’t in any but they looked fine
Greens: fast with a bit of bump, tough combo making putting problematic, I fixed quite a few ball marks and the longest putt I made was 6’.
Customer service: all fine except one always needs to tread lightly with the starters (some seem ready to explode at the least provocation), snack cart making rounds and friendly.
POP: pushing 5 hours +
Recommendation: I usually don’t play Torrey this time of year (before and just after the PGA tournament) as conditions can be rough. It’s worth senior city card holder rate but probably not full visitor rack rate (unless you like the abuse).
