Weather was perfect. The course itself was very poor shape except for the greens which are in wonderful shape. As good as Rustic Canyon greens, but softer. The greens were taking all sorts of shots... Continue »

The greens were the best I've ever seen them here! The fairways were "typical", but playable. Always fun to play at Balboa when the greens are good and the round is less than 4 hours!

Balboa was actually in decent shape. Greens were soft and on the slow side but rolled pretty true. Fairways were pretty thin and the kikuyu long in some areas. Although this course is fairly short ... Continue »
