Greens were in rocky shape, nothing true, bumpy, really slow, even though it hasn't rained hard in weeks. Fairways were nothing to write home about, lots of occasional water, mud, unkempt. Good price, but just a dull muni, with loads of potential...
Played 8/14 in the morning. Greens were quick and fairly frm, but would hold most shots, including longer irons. hard to repar divots on greens so many marks and problem spots. pace was extremely slow, even with carts. Interesting course, but not worth the high fees with the slow play and average condition of greens and fairways. Rough was thick and wet. Some great individual holes, but not overly blown away, given its strong reputation.
Why bother? I ask myself that every time I play this track. Our tee time was a little after 3 PM on Sunday, didn't tee off until nearly 4PM. Took nearly 3 hrs to play 9 holes! Fairways were dry, patchy and generally crappy. Greens were slow, and filled with unrepaired ball marks. Flushed my 2nd shot down the middle of the fairway on the first Par 5 and the ball disappeared (taken by the group ahead?) Coming off that same green, I got hit in the leg by a flyer from the group behind me. No fore, no apology...I like the old-fashioned routing and layout of this course but this is LA public golf at its absolute worst. Balls spraying every which way, no etiquette in duffer land, actually made me long for the "serenity" of Wilson or Harding! Next time I'll drive to Rustic Canyon...
