Typical muni conditions throughout - fairways have some lush spots but lots of dry, burnt lies too. Tee boxes are a mess generally. Greens are pretty bad with lots of kikuyu runners invading and laying down big roots.

Best conditioning was in the sand traps which are good and fluffy.

Play for the discount rates as the rack is not worth it.

Played Friday and Saturday here and the course is in the best shape so far this year. Greens were fast and sand was good. played in less then 4.5. Good day was had by all.

Played in a scramble on Brookside #2 Friday the 7th. I found the conditions generally to be in very nice shape. The greens on course 2 are small, quick and generally undulating. I found at times they could be a little quirky, with some subtle, localized breaks that weren't apparent in the read, but I'd just say that's part of their challenge. Conditioning-wise they were in very nice shape and quick. Fairways and rough were both good. You don't get fluffy or perched lies with this type of fairway grass, but it was in good a shape with no thin lies. Teeing grounds were very good -- flat with coverage. Can't remember a significant issue with teeing up all day. We never played out of a bunker, so I can't speak to those. While not necessarily one of my favorite designs, it is a good course and pretty popular locally. If you like it or are interested in trying it, right now conditions are probably as good as can be expected here. When not dealing with Rose Bowl parking issues, they keep the course pretty tidy. We had a very enjoyable round.

greens pretty much healed from aeration. Little bumpy but little quick. Pace of play here is a hit or miss. Course 2 is a lot shorter in length then course 1 but its a lot narrower and the greens are smaller and have more undulations.

Played on 3/20. Fairways and greens in pretty good shape. Anywhere else was hit or miss. Very uneven rough - anywhere from hardpan to 4 inches. Pace of play - typical 5 1/2 hours. Didn't see a marshall all day. Beautiful day though. Wish I played a little better.

WHAT A MESS BROKEN BOTTLES ALL OVER THE PLACE, TIRE MARKS ON FAREWAYS AND 18 GREEN. ALL FROM THE SOCKER MATCH. WHAT THE HELL IS THE MATTER WITH THESE PEOPLE!

This course plays really SLOW!! The fairways are fairly wide, but a bit hard for as much rain as we got in the last week. The rough is at a playable level. The bunkers have good quality sand and easy to get out from. The greens are firm and fast, and roll really true. I enjoyed the play, but not the pace of play.

Played 1/24. Pre-sunrise tee and 38* air temperature made for a challenging morning. While this course weathered the recent rains fairly well, signs of the storms were visible in a few spots -- a fallen tree blocked the cart path on #4 and there was standing water in a few bunkers. The fairways were dry and playable, which was good, because the rough and lots of fallen leaves made it difficult to find errant drives. The greens were in great shape, holding approach shots well with forgiving slower speed. The tee boxes were OK, no worse than other public courses. We played on a discount email coupon from AGC...not sure that I'd play this course again if I had to pay the full rack rate.

played afternoon of Oct 16. Considering it's football season, the fairways, tee boxes, and bunkers were in much better shape than I would have guessed. It was very playable. The only significant problem is the greens. They still are bumpy and full of holes, although there appears to be some healing. I know there always are a lot of complaints about Brookside, but the facility does have the best beverage cart girl in SoCal (Heidi) and the marshals did a great job today being of service to me.
