Another perfect morning here in Southern California. As with the North Course, the South as also in very nice condition with no real issues. Green speeds very manageable and receptive/ Fairways, bunkers, tee boxes all good. Overall, the course is a joy to play. Wish things could/would remain like this 12 months a year.

Out first on a really beautiful clear morning. Course is really in very nice condition right now. Greens roll well and have a nice pace, not so fast that with all the slope on these greens, they can become extremely difficult, but the speed now is manageable. Fairways have great coverage, Bunkers, tee boxes are excellent. Best time of the year to play with cool mornings which warm up quickly. Rarely any winds and everything is green and lush. Love spring in Southern California.

Enjoyed playing Rio Hondo again. I remember the first time I played there in the early 70's, the course was very short, until they did the remodel, which made this into a very nice track. Course offers a good challenge, but not so much as to being penal, except for hole #14, the par 3 which seems to "own me". After reading Roberts very comprehensive review, how can I say more, except that the greens did roll better than expected, so maybe the week between our rounds really helped? Recommend this course as it is still reasonably priced and the staff is always friendly.

Very much enjoyed getting back out to Harding. Being from the Midwest, really miss playing these old-style traditional style courses with all the trees. Course condition was about what I expected based upon recent reviews. Bumpy firm greens, inconsistent bunkers and a mixed bag when it came to the fairways/rough. Pace of play was surprisingly decent, a little over four hours, but the day was beautiful and the scenery was wonderful, so didn't seem all that bad. Sure wish we had some of these type courses in Orange County.

With only one course open, it was really crowded this morning. Course is in nice overall condition. Greens have pretty much recovered from the recent aeriation. Fairways have good coverage, and the areas that were of concern have been recently resodded to address the issue. Fairways are as nice as they have been for a while and presents very well. Tee boxes and bunkers well maintained.

Took advantage to play Lakewood, which I have not played for quite some time. Have to agree with the most recent review. Greens were the highlight of the course. Rolled well and had decent pace. Fairways had good coverage. Rough was at times just brutal. Which was also true of the bunkers for the opposite reason. Rough was thick and lush, while the sand (what there was of it) was thin/hard.
Enjoyed the round, but I must admit that the blue tees are now more than this 79-year-old can handle. Too many holes I can no longer reach in regulation, so it put a lot of stress on the short game. Funny, how different golf courses play when you lose so much distance. Since everyone else was playing the blue tees, it was easier just to suck it up and deal with it. Plus, those are the tees I always used to play. Who says that you become wiser with age

Out early on a really beautiful spring morning. Last day the North is open before they punch the greens, Course remains in very good condition. Green speeds are about 10.5+, which considering all the slope on these greens makes for a real challenge if you get above the pin or short side yourself. The greens are a bit firm, which only adds to the difficulty. Fairways have good coverage, bunkers are fine.

Playing one of my favorite County courses on a beautiful spring morning, Always enjoy playing here with the park like setting and surrounding mountains. Just a wonderful old style traditional course. Greens rolled well and were even better than expected. For the most part, fairways were good, with the occasional bare areas. Bunkers were the worst part of the course - need some sand please. The only real negative for me was my senior discount card had expired and since I do not play "away" that much anymore, decided not to purchase a new one. A decision I will probably regret.

South Course re-opens after being closed for a week for aeriation. As expected, the greens are bumpy and slow. To my surprise, no residual sand remaining? Several of the fairways in certain areas are having sod replaced. Strange that was not completed last week while the course was closed, but maybe the sod was not available? Anyway, nice to see improvements, whenever they are made. Overall, course is in good shape and a pleasure to play.

My last review of the North in February was very cold in the morning. How things have changed in 30 days. 70+ degrees when I teed off at 7am. Quick round to beat the heat. Course is in really great shape right now. Nothing to complain about. They have slowed the greens down a bit, which makes playing much more enjoyable. For a while it was brutal - borderline unfair at times. It gave me more glimmer of what tour players face on a regular basis. With the South course closed this past week for aerification, course has been very busy, paticularly in the early morning. Very enjoyable to play right now.

Nice to get back out to Westridge. Always enjoyed playing this course over the years. Conditions were better than expected. Greens rolled well with good pace. Decent coverage in the fairways. Did not find any bunkers but appeared OK. Staff was great and the senior rate makes this a positive choice to play.

First out on another cold morning. Still cart path only, which was a bit surprising, but better to err on the side of caution. The course is in really nice shape right now, and since they have brought the green speeds down a touch, much more manageable. For a while it was borderline unfair at times, if you were above the cup or short sided yourself. With the rains, not a lot of roll out in the fairways, which I rely on. Better weather expected, so I'm confident things will change.
