played fri 9/22, 8am 3some, 4 hr round. Beautiful day. Haven't played here in maybe 10 years. I forget how fun it is. We played the blue tees, par 70 5600 yds.. which I figured is equivalent to par 72 6500. Super hilly course with a great view of the city. I think it's a shot makers course. I count 6 holes where you shouldn't use driver if you are longer than 230. Only 2 par 5s. The par 3s are awesome, and 2 are short, 2 are long irons. Greens bumpy and soft, running a fast 10. The course overall in great shape. I had fun. I think this is the best value in OC, when you consider price and quality.

Played Sunday 9/17, 12:30 tee time. Nice pleasant day, warm with a 1-2 club breeze that turned into a 2+ breeze the last hour of the round. 5 hr round: 2:45 on the front, 2:15 on the back. Greens a bit bumpy and soft, but quick, a solid 11 on the stimp. The course overall in pretty good shape, really good muni shape. Bunkers decent. Overall, had a great time, I always enjoy this track. Will be back out next week for a scramble.

Played Sun 9/10, 8am shotgun, 4:30 round. Course in fabulous shape. It's been a long time since I've played this course and it's been almost perfect. Something was always wrong, horribly.. but not this time. This has always been a top track for me in SoCal, and this round only solidified my thought. 18 interesting holes, tons of character. It was a muggy morning, with 30 min of sprinkles. Reminded me of Hawaii weather. Got really hot the last hour. Greens huge... a little bumpy if you don't fix the marks, but running a fast 10 and true. I will play this course anytime, as it is my favorite.

Played 9/9 Sat, 7am shotgun, 4:30 hr round, cool, overcast, humid morning, reminds of Hawaii, not much wind, got hot the last hour or so. Course in good shape. Greens a little bumpy, running about a 10, not very fast. Rough is sticky and balls sit down a little. Bunkers are beach sandy. I've never hit into so many bunkers... Had a hard time on the greens figuring out speed: can't decide if it's me sucking, or me not figuring out the grain. What makes this course, I've decided, is not the ocean, but the canyon/gorge that the course weaves around in the middle of the course. Anyways, always a privilege to play here.

played fri 9/8, 10:40 tee time, 5 hr rd. Been at least 15 years since i've played here, and don't remember it being so fun. Hot day with not much of a breeze. Very nice, challenging layout, lots of elevation changes. good mix of blind shots, up and down holes, forced carries, hazards... Lots of great shot quality opportunities. Greens were decent, soft, a little bumpy, ran about an 11. Beverage cart came around a few times. Bunkers perfect. Overall in really good shape. Had a great time.

Played Wed 8/23, 2:20 pm as a 3 some with GKers alex and deepsea... 4:10 hr rd. Warm humid day with a slight breeze. Played the Zin/Merlot routing. course in pretty good shape, with the exception of the SLOW greens. Greens firm and true, just slow.. like a 9 on the stimp. When the ball slows down going down a tier, it's slow. But had a great time. bunkers a little ignored, but playable. NCGA price is a nice deal. Some of the fairways had some soft spots, but overall very playable. Enjoy this course very much, and wish it were closer to me.

Played Sunday 7/30 , 10:20 tee time; 5 hr round (because my group was slow, but not me ;) ) warm day with a cooling breeze. Wind a good 1-2.5 clubs most of the round. Greens are really fast, and I was not prepared for that. I think they are grainy too, which always messes with me. I say they are running a solid 12-13, mostly true and firm. I haven't played here in maybe 20 years, so I was excited to play... and it's much better than I remember. I thought it was going to be cool ocean holes and then mediocre inland holes... but the entire routing was really fun and interesting. I'd say some of the greens are borderline unfair with the speed, slope and pin placement: actually, #11 is not fair at all. Too sloped and too fast. when you have a 4 ft uphill putt, leave it an inch short and it rolls back to your feet... yeah, not fair. And there wasn't a great place for the pin, not with that speed, and with the wind blowing downhill. Cart girl came around a bunch. Course in great shape overall, but here were a lot of unfilled divots. Overall, I'd love to play here again.

played Sat july 29, 7:40, and 1;10.. finished the first round in 5 hrs, 2nd round we played 2 man scramble and finished in 5 hrs. Wind picked up on the back 9 of the am round, and was really windy the 2nd round, as expected. Greens running true, about a fast 10. Haven't played here in 20 years, so I was excited to get out, and it did not disappoint. The course is a little bare bones, but playable. Bunkers were amazingly perfect, though I did get 2 nasty plugged balls. Had a great time.

Played Fri July 28, 11am, 4:45 as a 4some. First time here, never knew this course existed. Wonderful track. Interesting holes, hilly course. Greens took some getting used to... downhillers FAST. Course in pretty good shape. Greens running about a 11... but they were a bit bumpy. I would like to play this multiple times to score well here. I would play here anytime.

Played Thurs 7/13 , 8:10 am as a 3 some; beat the heat time... 4 hr round. course recovered from the punch... greens true, about a 10 on the stimp and in good shape. Rest of the course in fabulous shape. drinking water all over the course. Bunkers were damp in spots. rough is sticky, so even when the ball is sitting up, you need to respect the rough. I love this course and can't wait to play again.

Played Sunday 8am shotgun, 4 1/2 hr round. Beautiful day. Second time here. 1. the routing is growing on me. I enjoyed much more than the first time. 2. last year, the rough was torn up and should've been GUR, but that seems taken care of now. The fairways here are narrow and the rough sticky, so hitting the fairway is a must. Greens are small and sloped, kind of like pebble. The restaurant is open, and they have a good smash burger. No range. Had a great time, and have decided this would be a great home course.

Played Sat 9am. 5 hr round. COLD day. Love this course. Always look forward to it. BUt I always putt horribly... cannot figure it out. Very grainy greens. Anyways had a great time. The marshalls and starters were incredibly nice. There was one marshall who wasn't so nice... he 'gave a time penalty' to my friend.. told him he was taking longer than 45 seconds to hit, and the course was slow because of him, and it 'ruined the rest of my day'. And he tells him on the 18th tee, as if there could be anything done by then anyways... Seems very out of line. We weren't too happy about that. Aside from that rude interaction, loved it and can't wait to get back.
