I played on 4/18/06, the conditions were nice and green. The rough was thick, because there's a tournament sometime this month at Brookside. The speed on the greens are different for about 6 holes. There were no severe divot marks on or off the greens.

Walk up (Friday 3/17) and starter said there is a threesome on the first fairway if you want you can join them and when you come back you can pay. So I did and we had a great time. Played in about 4 hrs., with a touch of rain on #18 fairway.

Played 3/2/06, walked up and got right out. started as two and finshed as four. Because of five old men it took 4.5 hrs (thay were THREE holes behind). Come on Brookside do something about this, it should not take more then 4 hrs. on a thursday. Course is in the best shape I have ever seen, and gitting better.

Played today (Saturday) 2/4/06 9:00 t-time, 4.5 hrs. Greens and fairways in good shape. Ruff a little patchey. Greens were fast and just like anywhere, you must be below hole to score.

played the back 12 on 1/22 sunday am. really cold. Course in decent shape. Greens are smooth, but alot of the slopes are very severe and unfair. When you tap the ball from 5 ft, and it rolls 15 ft past the hole, that's unfair. Other than that, a decent round of golf, if you don't mind the waiting on every hole.

Generally when I make the long trip to Pasadena I play #1, which I had a time for. Got to the course (raining at the time) and nobody had teed off for almost 45min. When our 3rd person arrived, told the starter we were ready to go, but instead he told us that he had a group of eight which should go next. 15 min later the 8some had still not even teed off, so we decided to play #2 rather than wait behind these people. As we were leaving the course, we observed the final group of the 8some in the 10th fairway. (And we were done with 18!!) Given there was nobody there and we promised the starter we would hurry up and get out of their way, you would have thought he would have accommodated us. #2 was in nice condition, greens were fairly quick and smooth, and finished in 2:40min.

I've complained in the past about plenty. But there is one thing this course could do to improve. Open the clubhouse at 5:00am instead of 6:30 and have some god d%mn loud speakers in the clubhouse so you can hear your name being called while warming up with a cup of coffee or coccoa in the restaraunt-- So that way you don't have to show up at 4:00am to be first single on the waiting list and then be forced to have to wait outside in the cold for three f***ing hours before they finally call your name. Some people might say just go get your cup of coffee and go back outside. Well, in the time you go get your coffee they'll call your name three times and then your screwed without even knowing it. This has actually happened to me before.

What's the point of warming up on the range when it's fourty degrees outside? You simply will not get warmed up!!
What the hell do they have a clubhouse for anyway?!!
For christ sake make some use out of those couches sitting in the front lobby. Why not have a waiting list to sign-up on in the coffee shop every morning? That way when the sleepy starter staff finally moseys in at 6:00 am, your name will already be on a list that they can pick up when they grab their morning cup of coffee. I'm sick and tired of waitng out in the cold just to play some golf. USE THE CLUBHOUSE TO KEEP COLD PLAYERS WARM, AND GET SOME SPEAKERS INSTALLED INDOORS. GOD I HATE AMERICAN GOLF!!!!

Brookside is always crowded, but usually you can find a decent pace and always play a unique 18. If you like wide open fariways (making it hard to lose balls) than Brookside is a great course for you. They even line the ravine with bushes and trees.
