Played for the 1st time, close to work. Got a deal from donovandaily.com, $25, hotdog,soda,cart..can't beat it. Anyway, first time I finished a round under 4 hours. It's a beat up course and you get what you pay for, but it is a decent course and you get your golf fill..cheap. I was surprised though by the old gal at the snack shop..cranky..cranky..cranky.. As far as offering any tips..all the holes play the same..they're all straight and wide..you can't lose a ball here..there are no water hazards..I'm a 15 handicap and I shot a 77 here for the first time..I did notice that the back nine we were playing into the wind that added a little challenge..but for a decent golfer this place is very easy..

Played the back 9 today. Fairways are typical for this time of the year..dorman/brown. Some of the greens were bumpy..liek the "waffle" comment earlier..but think they're just letting it grown out..some were still in great shape. Still a testing course for anyone. Bring your game.

I played at RH last Saturday and the course is in EXCELLENT shape for this time of the year. The greens are PERFECT. The greeskeeper is doing an excellent job. The reason the fairways are "brown" is this is winter now and grasses go dormant..it is common. Actually, it's neat to see the contrast between fairway and rough.

I think they charged that "spectator" for insurance reasons..but I'm glad you got it back. I highly suggest to anyone that is around this course to play it..the greens are great.

Played last Satruday, 9/2, and the course was in great shape. The best course in the area by far. Bring your game.

Played last Saturday morning 7/29. The course is pretty fun and has NUMEROUS dogleg lefts. There are numerous bunker ON the fairway and some right in the landing zone of your approach..which was pretty neat..different. The fairways were alright but not what I'd expect for a $50+ course..it was kinda shaggy and not as tight as some I've played for less.

My biggest concern were the greens as others have mentioned. They felt more like a damp sponge than anything..maybe the humidity..but just couldn't stand how the ball rolled..no rollout at all..very sticky.

I wouldn't say it felt like a "country club" but your average muni. Nothing really to write home about, but the pace of play was pretty fast and we finished under 5 hours.

Played before but noticed the bunkers have very coarse sand..very granular..not sand really..greens are true and fast and none of the approaches should be considered easy..multi-tiered greens all around..doesn't penalize you for being a short driver (if you go off the rough..you're done though) but you need a GOOD short game chipping, putting, to get you through the day.

Not to be biaed but this is one of the ebst courses in the area with a beautiful new clubhouse. If you got game test it out here.

A players course..if you are cutting teeth this is not the place..the front plays harder than the back. Most first timers will amass storkes due to the fast, undulating greens. Rough is thick and not forgiving. Most of the fairways are narrow on the front but open up.. alittle on the back..but anything off the fairway is trouble.

The "other" course in Downey (other being Rio Hondo). As far as playing golf it is the bargain. The fairways are okay..for a muni. The greens are extremely slow..but that's the norm for Los Amigos. It's a very easy, open course so it will build confidence when you play. The back 9 has fairways that offer more problem areas and I would consider a tad more difficult. Not a bad muni. course.

I play here most of the time so am very aware of it's current conditions and play. Played last Friday. Greens are great right now..not Augusta-esque quite..but very true and fast. Fairways are in good shape, as usual. Tee boxes are in good shape also but the blues were playing with the whites that day. I would have to say if you're a beginning golfer to not play here because it is a demanding course. The fairways are narrow and it is not a "park" style course. If you drive fairly straight and are a decent putter then it will be a good test. The greens are true and FAST..no carpet stuff here. RH is a true test of where you are as a golfer.
