Played in the GK Guru round with Jim, Matt & Johnny. Lots of laughs and just a darn good time. Third time playing this side and I enjoyed it. Pretty straight forward design with a couple of change ups mixed in. Concur with the previous course reviews. Course was in over all great shape. I thought the fairway's were fantastic. Ball sat perfectly and gave you great confidence to swing away. Some of the best that I have played in a while. Found many traps on the day. A couple in the fairway and a couple greenside. They were all consistently firm compacted sand and some were wet as well. The greens were in fine shape, but had been sanded not too long ago and were putting really slow for my taste. They were firm, but pitches and shots still checked and they ran fairly true. You just had to give the ball a pretty good wack to get the ball anywhere near the hole. They looked faster and that added to the chore of convincing yourself to hit the ball harder. I suspect they will improve quickly. The home stretch from the blues challenges your game, with most of the Par 4 over 400 into the prevailing wind. A fun course in very good to great shape.

Played in the GK outing 8-16-20 with Rob, Jerry & Johnny. Great golfing company on a very fun course. The summer heat has taken a bite, but the course is still playing well. Three weeks ago the fairway's were mostly green, but now there were many dried and brownout areas in the fairway's. But, even if you found one, the turf still played great. Greens were in great shape. Held shots well and ran at a good medium pace. Noticed a few bumps and wobbles, but mostly ran great. Traps very firm and Tee boxes typical Mt. Woodson fair. Over all in very good to great shape despite the Hot temps. Today on 8/18/20 it got to 107 !!! Easy recommend if you can get out early or prepare for warm temps.

Played front 9 only 8-7-20
course was is in over all great shape. Fairways very lush and green. Not a lot of roll, but great lies. Greens were fantastic. Held most shots, smooth at a couple of clicks above medium. Perfect speed in my opinion. Beautiful and typical mountain course. More room then most mountain courses from Tees. If in the area a good addition to the other 2 main attraction courses and with a total of 5 courses to play, a decent choice of the rotation. Absolutely love the Graeagle area.

Played 7-24-20 10 am Play 4.75 hrs.
Course was in over all Fair to good shape. Fairways were mostly in good and even great shape. Some very soggy mushy areas and some dry burnt areas
mixed through out. Most of the time found good to great lies. Mountain course so rough was a mixture of tall grass or wooded areas. Most Fairways had decent landing areas, but if you strayed too far in either direction there is plenty of trouble. Bunkers decent and predictable, but sadly the greens had many issues.
The good areas were just fine, but many sick and dead areas on almost every green. The good parts were a little bumpy and looked slow, but ran quicker then they looked. The course is still playable and worth a day, but on the rough side. The layout is fun in my opinion. There are a couple of difficult hole designs that can be frustrating, but mostly just challenging and fun. I enjoy the routing as it takes you through the forest with only a few homes around at this time. Good mixture of short hole with a couple veery long mountain holes. Small driving range area but a fantastic after round drink area. Even with the less then great conditions still a fun day to be had if you can enjoy golf in beautiful mountain settings.

Enjoyed a round with fellow GKr's 7/8/20 1:45. Have only played this course one time before many years ago and was looking forward to playing it again. It was a fun day with Dconnally & Ratpatrol. Course was in overall good condition. Fairways had great coverage and mostly green & lush. Had good lies most of the day. Rough was a mixture. Some areas thick and some thin. Greens were mostly in very good condition. Some were in great shape and others were recovering with many ball marks but still in fine shape. Some have been enlarged and are still blending, but did not cause any issues. Mostly soft and ran at at about medium pace. I found so many bunkers, I should have brought my beach chair. They were in very good to great shape. Sand was mostly soft and consistent. I enjoyed the fun layout. It requires a variety of shots that I thought were fun. A good mixture of lengths. Service was great. Grill was open and had a burger before the round and it was good. Easy access to get to from the toll road 125 or down the city streets. Will definitely be back.

Played 6/27/20 3:00pm. Last Tee time of the day, but heard they will be extending last tee soon. No problem getting 18 in. Course is in over all great condition. Love the fairway's. Great coverage. Great roll & nice lies. Greens were very receptive running a little on the slow side and a little bumpy in the afternoon. You can really see all the footprints in the waning light. love twilight golf here with the great views of the valley. Easy recommend.

Played 6/20/20 It had been a while since playing here and forgot how much I like the layout here. Challenging, but fair. Fairway's were fuller then I've ever seen them. Mostly great coverage with good to great lies. Greens were in very good to great shape. Held shots. Running at medium quick with good rolls. Check in was easy. Easy Recommend.

Took advantage of the reported cooler temps to play in the desert. Unfortunately the wind was nuking. Started out ok, but by the turn it was a solid 25-30+. Even made putting an adventure ! The course is fairly exposed, so there was no protection. The course itself is in great condition. The fairway's were lush with only a few drying areas mixed around. Fantastic to hit from. It is easy to get spoiled by the great lush Palm Springs fairways. Greens were in very good shape. Held shots well and rolled at a solid medium pace & true. The bermuda looked to be about half grown in. Rough was lush & typical. Traps were in very good shape. No rakes, so it would be easy to land in a foot print. I used my own foot to try and remove my foot prints as best as possible. Staff was great, with easy check in. Everything over the phone. Bag drop person checks you in and sends you on your way. Easy recommend!

Played 5-30-20 3 pm POP 3.5 hrs. Course is in overall very good to great shape. Fairway's mostly green and lush. Ball sat very nicely. Greens were receptive and were rolling at a solid medium pace. The afternoon Poana can cause a few bounces, but mostly ran well. Weekends are very full & busy, but no issues getting the round in on the afternoon start. Easy Recommend!

Played 5/10/20 I think the 8.9 here is low. It's a 9+ easily. With fellow GKrs, Matt, Alex and Jim. POP was around 4 hrs. Beautiful day in the desert. Covid safety protocols. 1 person per cart. Temp. check when arriving. Cc payments only. Check in was easy. Fairways were near perfection. Green and lush. An occasional over watered spot, but overall in fantastic shape.
Greens were in very good to great shape. Mostly firm but, well struck shots stayed close. Ran about medium quick and ran true. Absolutely worth a trip out before they close.

The word is April 1 is closing day to begin renovation. So, as you can imagine they are not trying to grow any grass, but the course is still fair to decent shape. Fairway's are pretty covered with thin & patchy green grass & dormant grass, but still play fine. Recommend using winter rules, because the balls can often settle between green tuft & dormant grass. Greens were decent. Rolling a tad quicker than typical, but a little bumpy Poana in the afternoon. Very playable and worth playing with any deals if in the area.

Played 2-15-20 12:40 POP 4.5 hrs. The frost has taken a pretty good bite out of the visuals. Like Forest92 mentioned, the course is firm and fast. Even the greens were a little faster than typical. But as dry and thin as it might look, it still plays great. Enough cushion from the fairway's to make great contact and put some stank on the balls for the firm greens. Traps & tees typical mediocre. Over all in very playable condition and still one of my favorite courses to play.
