I play here 3-4 times per month. I drive from Orange County because the course is in good shape, good greens and good price. There are no public courses in OC that come close to this one for value and I've played all of them. For example I can play 3 rounds at the General or I can zip on up the road and play 1 round at Black Gold here in Yorba Linda for the same price. Believe me, BG is not 3 times better than Old. The course could be strengthend by adding more fairway bunkers. Currently the worst thing about the course is the teeboxes. They have gotten really bad and must be reworked.

They have done a great job improving the overall course since loosing all the deseased trees. There's one bad tee box, always has been, and probably always will be. #8. It's not a big deal though. The real disappointment is the greens. You could always count on LS to have short, true greens. They're terrible now. You must get your mind set on "hit and hope" mode. Very high, extremely bumpy. The blooms on the poa annua were so high that I picked a bouquet for my wife. It's actually comical to watch the longer putts from the side to see all the bouncing.
