Walked the blues this morning 12/30/24 at 11:30am with my buddy Mark and a twosome of brothers under beautiful weather low 60s with no wind which I hear is rare up here. Our POP was 5 hrs behind a packed course of holiday golfers. Very friendly staff in the pro shop. No cart girl. They have a big driving range on mats, big putting green and we ate at the restaurant after the round which had great food. My first time here. I really loved the layout which had some up and down tee shots, doglegs, straight forward holes and beautiful views of the surrounding desert mountains. Most holes had big mounding just off the fairways that could either hurt you or funnel balls back to the center of the fairways. Some nice elevation changes and the course flowed really nicely. The greens were in very good shape rolling medium to quick speeds and holding shots very softly. Rating the greens an 8/10. The fairways were on the thinner side and drives rolled forever. This helped me shoot a low score today as drives were rolling an extra 15 yds or so. They contained just enough grass to be considered playable without being considered hardpan. Rated 6.5/10 Wasn't much rough at all just off the fairways. Rated 6/10 Tees were level on the dry side with the par 3s being a little thinner and torn up but not to bad. Rated 6.5/10 Was not in any bunkers but playing partners described them as containing consistent sand with a good base to hit off of. Recommended for layout and greens conditioning.
