One other thing - the round took us nearly 6 hours. Ridiculously slow, but that seems to be the way American Golf Corp. likes to run things - fivesomes are the norm, and slow golf has resulted.

I played Diamond Bar yesterday. The greens were very challenging and I loved the length of the course, as well as the layout. The fairways were nice and wide, too.

Only problem - and it was a huge problem - was that the fairways were in awful condition. I have never seen worse fairways in my life. There were splotches of crabgrass and other weird types of grass that caused bad lies on every hole. If they could fix the fairways, Diamond Bar would easily be one of my favorite courses, especially for only $27 (to walk).
