Conditions Update - Course is playing nicely. They are getting the bunkers back in shape and playable. A lot of courses during the pandemic let their bunkers go to mud or hard pan. Either way Mather is getting theirs back in shape which is good. Greens are running medium, fairly smooth, but did have more than average divots on the green that I had to repair before putting. All in all the price is right the course is in good shape so don't hesitate to make a tee time

Hey Gang - Quick update. Course is in good shape for the most part. Greens are running true and fast. Probably some of the best in the area. Fairways are a little light and brown in spots but not bad overall. Looks like courses in the area are starting to repair their bunkers and Haggin seems to be one of them. Many courses I'v'e played in the last year let their bunker go and even unplayable. I'm starting to see that turn for the better and Haggin is one of them. There is actually sand in the bunkers (not hard pan or mud). Haggin is a good local course with lots of tee options and a good challenge. $52 to walk on the weekend. It's worth the fee in my book. Enjoy.

Conditions update - Course is a fun layout with some easy holes and some challenging holes. 18 is the signature hole with a split fairway with water in the middle. As for the conditions the course overall is in decent shape but the greens are a little beat up. plenty of divot marks and some greens have a fungus on them. It's more than playable, just know that you'll be fixing ball marks in your putting line. WE enjoyed it and had a great day on 10/4/20.

Update on conditions for Morgan Creek. Tee boxes are level but very shaggy. Greens are on the slow side with plenty of ball marks. The greens and some spots on fairways were over watered. Didn't hit any bunkers so can't speak to that. Condition are a little rough, but we had fun just the same

Played this morning 4/9. Greens in good shape and running pretty fast. per course direction bunkers are not in play. Rough is thick and fairways in decent shape. Some tight lies and some fluffy. $25 to ride this morning. One rider per cart Cups are inverted and no touching the flag per social distancing guidelines. Get your tee times early. with only a handful of courses open tee times are going fast.

Course is in pretty good shape although the greens are a little beat up and the running slow. Given the current conditions beggars can't be choosers. Just the same it more than playable and worth the greens fee. It's an easy walk if you're so inclined.

Just updating conditions at Mather. for an overall review DeepSea14 posted an excellent review on 5/13. I play Mather frequently due to cost and location. They just punched so wait a while. Greens are almost always in great shape. Rough can be thick at times although this time of year not too bad. My biggest beef with the course is that they over water the you know what out of the course. This time of year after a long summer it's not too bad if you don't count the bunkers. The bunkers are the worst in the area. They are more like mud than sand. They are always wet and sometimes puddled. I don't believe they ever drag them or perform maintenance. Too bad, cause otherwise it's a good layout and decent conditions. Know before you go!

Just wanted to update the Nor Cal folk on the conditions at Empire Ranch. Course is in really good shape. Played it Saturday 8/24 with an 11:30 Tee time. Greens are rolling great. A little slippery on the downhill. Bunkers have plenty of sand and are in good shape. Fairways we're like carpet. The only down side was on a hot (100') weekend there was no beverage cart. Very little shade on this course also. Otherwise it was a fun round. The course is moderately challenging. Signature hole is 18. one of the 18th holes that is a par 3. Elevated tee box that drops probably 80-90 feet to the green. Plays anywhere from 220 - 190 and it's over water. Fun shot for what could be be your last of the day. used to be OB left, but they have since put houses over there and a large net to protect them so you can get away with the hook now.

Winter conditions Update! The course is a little rough right now. Play Winter rules an you'll be fine. Fairways are a little splochy (is that a word). There are spots on the fairways where you'll nee'd to move your ball to find some grass. In addition the fairways are cut very tight. Greens and bunkers are great. It's still a fun layout and the best draining course in the area but just wanted to let everyone know it needs a little TLC right now.

Just played Castle on Sunday morning. It's one of my favorite layouts and usually in good shape. Sunday was no exception. Fairways were mostly good with a few dry spots with some thin lies. Greens were perfect! My one complaint was the bunkers. Horrible. They were wet heavy dirt. some were compacted. Some were ok. Otherwise the course is in good shape and fun to play and well worth the golfmoose rate of $59 for 2.

Just a quick update on conditions - Course is in pretty good shape. Bunkers are a little hit and miss. Some have plenty of sand others a little firm. Greens look like they may have aerated 3-4 weeks ago, but rolling very nicely. I played a week ago, so I'm sure they are only better now. Medium speed with very few divots. There is a deal on golfmoose $49 for two players including cart. An extra $10 per player on the weekend. Valid 7 days a week with no time restrictions. Well worth the fee. There are a few tee shots that are hard to judge, but otherwise it's a fun course and I recommend it.

Just wanted to update everyone on the conditions at Castle Oaks. First let me say I love the layout of the course and always enjoy playing it. Played yesterday and was a little disappointed at the conditions. It was hot yesterday, but they over watered the course IMO. The fairways were mushy in spots and the bunkers were horrible. Some had standing water, and if not they were basically mud. The rough, parts of the fairways, and around the greens looked like they hadn't been mowed in a week. Scraggly is a good way to describe it. It also appeared as if they hadn't move the pins in some time as the section of the green where the pin was at had lots of divots. The other sections of the green looked pristine. Having said that the greens were in pretty good shape overall but very slow. We got the Golfnow deal for $45 with cart. Rack rate is $53. It's a good deal and a good course, just hope they get up to speed on the maintenance.
