Played Los Amigos 10/12/22 for the first time in a while. Course is in very bad shape. Front nine greens are like putting in the fairway, back nine a little better not much. This course use to be one of my favorites,but it is in need of a lot of improvement.

Just a short review on a Los Amigos round this past weekend. Greens probably in the worst, bumpiest condition than I've ever seen them here. Really terrible and disappointing. Discolored, pocky, and inconsistent in every way.

The rest of the course has its positives and negatives but none of it even scratching the surface of 'average' overall. And all that for $63 greens fee. Hope they get things fixed up soon.

Since I had not played here in a while, and was reminded by Larry's review, thought I'd give it a shot. Out early, as it's the only way to play here to avoid the slow pace of play. Not a bunch to add to the last review, although I found the greens better than expected. (I had lower expectations) Tough to complaint too much given the great senior rates, and customer service.

I actually enjoy playing this course. So long as your expectations are not to great, I think that this is a good choice for not a lot of money

Joined a friend today who I have not seen in awhile. Going in I was not expecting much and I was not disappointed. Like many courses in S CA the recent heat wave has taken a toll. Tee boxes did not provide any issues. Fairways were in need of cutting but kept long due to heat and thus no roll at all. Some fairways look good others do not. Greens are soft and showing wear/tear. Lots of brown spots in the greens and some even have kikuyu growing in around the edges. Traps need cleaning. Course is also very crowded and very slow play. The check in by Gary was excellent as always. Not recommended IMO unless you have no place else to play.

Played Los Amigos with the dads from my kids school. Los Amigos is a pretty user friendly course with a couple of holes that make you go hmmm.

Get to the range and it reminded me of Tin Cups range minus Rene Russo and add two old white guys. Balls are crappy, matts are worse and the targets are limited.

Pro shop guy was nice enough he's been there a long time so I was in and out.
We head to the first tee and you can see the chipping area is completely overgrown.
The putting green was patchy and burnt. Yikes, here we go!!!!

LA County sucks!! Its just a big cash grab. Nothing reinvested in the course. The fairways were moderately better than Santa Anita and the rough was just unkept weeds. Tee boxes were un level ( they were replanting 3) and the greens were just wrecked. No one fixes pitch marks, the poa was patchy and the speeds were inconsistent.

I'm a humble muni track player so I'm grateful to play anywhere but that being said whoever is running this place could do a better job. Oh, and the water argument is weak because there are plenty of courses in the area that are making it through this drought.

City and county golf courses have been packed and made a lot of money to take better care of these courses. Play this place if you want to play an upgrade from Victoria but this place sucks.

I look at the massive picture of the Board of Supervisors, they're all so proud, when was the last time any of these people were at the course? You can tell none of them play anyways but you have to see there picture in all the local pro shops.

What a joke!!

Quick review on Saturday's round at Los Amigos ... we got on very early so it was nice to get around the course in under four hours. We had a 6:38 tee time with three walking and one cart. Course conditions are 'fine.' Greens had some damage but were mostly in good shape and rolling nicely, but many of the tee boxes (we played the blue tees) were beat up good. Plenty of good lies in the fairways but a few thin areas and dirt/mulch areas off to the sides of the green complexes. It was early so the bunkers were a bit on the wet side so can't really speak to how well they played after the sun came out later. Still good in a pinch ...

Memories of playing here with my grandfather in the early 80s brings me back every year or two. Not the longest of courses at 6212 from the blues but it has its challenges. Greens have a fair amount of undulation. The front nine is fairly open with some mild doglegs. The back nine has some hard doglegs and a water crossing that will likely keep the driver in the bag for some people. There is enough variety and strategy in the design to keep it interesting. Teed off a little short of 7am finishing in 3:50. The greens rolled mostly smooth with medium speed and held shots. The fairways have mostly good coverage with a mix of grasses but had decent lies. The rough had decent coverage with some thin/bare spots. Along the fairways the rough was thicker in some areas than others but nothing very penal. Around the greens the rough was good. The bunkers were groomed and playable but wet and compacted. The tee boxes are a bit chewed up with spotty coverage on some. Overall the conditions played fair to good. About what I would expect from an LA County Muni. The staff was friendly.

Played this course for the first time today. Went into it under the impression that it would be in half-decent shape, i.e., your average muni course. Expectations matched reality. It wasn't bad, nor was it great. In a word, it was average. Don't let that dissuade you from playing here, though, because there really isn't anything "wrong" with it, per se. Everything except maybe the bunkers could've been a little better, but nothing was horrible, or even bad, except for maybe the tee boxes (divots/bare spots and a tad of unevenness on some). The carts had no sand, which doesn't help the divots, and there was no beverage cart. But the layout is enjoyable enough, most holes are right in front of you on the front nine, with more doglegs on the back. Not overly long, nor overly difficult. In many ways, it's the epitome of your average county-run municipal course. Nothing to write home about, but nothing to avoid, either.

1st off on a beautiful golf morning. Was hoping Weber would show up (LOL) but I knew in advance he would not. Had the course to myself for 3 hours walking. Have not played here in almost 2 years so it was nice to get back. Check in was great from Gary B. Glad he is still there. I also heard that Eddie from Montebello is now there as well. So I now know customer service will always be just fine at Los Amigos. Found the course in good condition even with the dampness from overnight watering. Heavy fairways to start but good lies. Back 9 the fairways had good lies and good roll. Strange that I found no bunkers but they looked playable and had rakes and looked cleaned and ready for business. No issue with any rough to speak of. Greens were clean/mowed and chipped/putted just fine all round. I really like the tree cleaning they have done on many holes. Makes a big difference. $21 Sr walking (with LA CO card). $16.50 for a cart + 5 for single rider. Also noticed that Sr rates are different on Fridays vs weekdays (check website or with pro shop). Nice driving range. Good putting green. Did not have any food, but it use to be good and hope that it still is. A no frill public course if you find the right tee time to avoid POP issues. You can call at 9 AM for 9 day advanced reservations. Recommended. But it seemed very quite today. Perhaps many have gone back to work? Or inflation is starting to nibble away $$ for recreation vs food, gas and necessities?
