Got to play Saticoy for the first time right behind the GK outing this past Monday. This one has been on my radar for years and now I kick myself for not finding my way out there sooner. Saticoy has vaulted up towards the top of my list for my favorite courses in SoCal. I don't know if I can give a bigger compliment to a facility than "this is a golfer's place".
The crew we met were awesome. You know they have an amazing and thoughtful team that they have a one head embroidery machine. First place I've ever seen to that so they can serve their members, which speaks volumes. Just great dudes in the shop and we only grabbed beers from the snack shop but that guy was funny and great too.
First and foremost, I can't think of a better short game area than Saticoy. I didn't want to leave. Give me a cooler, a speaker and about 6-7 hours down there and I'd be in heaven. We hit one shot we had with a rangefinder and it was 115 yards. AMAZING!!
The course? Unforgettable. It's rare that I finish a round and can remember every detail of every hole. Saticoy was one of those. It's massively interesting, challenging, fair, fun, creative and welcoming. 10/10 for the layout (I'm even giving grace to #10 which seemed massively out of place but I made a birdie so it's cool by me). I think my group got sick of me looking around and saying "this is classic Southern California golf". It is. It's championship golf with a socal vibe.
The conditions were perfect. And those greens? Let's go!
If anyone gets a chance to get to Saticoy, whether at a GK event or otherwise, do it. If you love golf you need to experience this place.
