Shorter than Brookside Course # 1, but still a nice course to play. A relatively flat layout with heavily bunkered fairways and greens.
A storm channel runs along the side of some of the holes. Some beautiful holes on the back 9 (#11, # 12) make this course worthwhile. Easier to get a reservation to play than course # 1. Fairly forgiving and not extremely difficult (slope at 115) of a course.

This is a more interesting course than I originally gave it credit because it's a little shorter. Most of the greens are small, well-trapped and have enough undulation to cause problems getting up and down. The greens were fast enough today that you needed to keep your approach shots below the holes. Conditions: Greens were fast and mostly smooth. Fairways were very inconsistent. Many bare spots due to the parking for the Rose Bowl game the day before. Traps as usual were inconsistent -- some have too much sand, others have hardly any. I'd still recommend the course, it's short, but you need to hit good iron shots into the small greens.

I guess American Golf does an OK good job - considering that the Rose Bowl parks 60,000 cars on Brookside's fairways every Saturday during the Fall - but I played after the recent UCLA/USC game - and there were beer-bottle tops all over the fairways, broken been bottles (that appear to have been run over by lawnmowers!) all over the place - dumped charcoals from BBQ's in the rough - and the tire damage and ruts and "driveways" have ruined what used to be a great track. It's quite sad. Greens on #2 were not that bad - trick putting and some are small. Hope they get it cleaned up by Spring!
