Ok, not sure Tecolote made too many top 10 or 100, maybe even 500 lists. It's a par 58 in a canyon about a mile from Mission Bay for those unfamiliar. Played early Thanksgiving morning with Greg, Ashwin and Arya. Check-in was about as low-key as it gets. Front desk friendly and accommodating. Tee boxes were pretty chewed up, but easy to find a place to hit from. Fairways had grass, well, grasses, lots of different kinds, but grass. Unusual for Tecolote. Areas around small greens were well covered with decent lies. On most holes you're on or close to the small greens, in the creek, or lost up the side of the canyon, so not much rough. Traps have ok sand, but are rarely raked by the customers. Greens are very good. Lots of undulations and tough breaks on these small three-putt score-wreckers. This course is as good as it has been in 4-5 years and a lot of fun to play. It's not Goat Hill, but there are plenty of ways to blow your score up here Ashwin was a recent graduate that had played on his college team and was surprised how much fun he had, claiming he'd be back.
