Played the Blues (6381/70.5/127) with 140ver & Hmtgolfguy in about 3.5H under sunny, fairly calm conditions. Thanks to Mike & Ron for a fun time! Typical Ted Robinson design. Up/down rolling hills wi... Continue »

We got a chance to play here last Saturday (7/15/17). I was really looking forward to playing this course, as the last time that we were here, I had a hitch in my swing that would have made Charles B... Continue »

Played today @ 9:07am as a 4some and finished in just under 5 hrs. Even for Monday, course was very busy with 4somes all morning. I'm sure the current underpar deal had increased the traffic here qu... Continue »

Sandwiched between our rounds on Valley, we played Palm in the middle. After we finished our first round a little after 10:00, we checked to see when they could put us on the tee sheet for Palm. They ... Continue »

They two course are so different. Palm has a lot of water/lakes and bunkers, all throughout the course. The fairways are rolling with... Continue »

Played 12/15 on a cheap GN Hot Deal time scheduled for 1pm, starter let me go off at noon as a single. Kind of a maze to find the pro shop after I self parked but it is a huge hotel/resort and friendly staff helped me find my way. I was a little concerned about my 1pm tee time and not finishing after I read multiple reviews on GN within the last couple months about 5 hour rounds. Maybe those were weekend rounds. The starter was quick to let me know it was fairly open and I could follow a elderly couple twosome who wanted to be by themselves if I would putt and hit the range for a few minutes and I was very appreciative of him letting me go early. Is this couples only twosome deal a Palm Desert thing? Or just old people? C'mon folks, I won't bite! I played the blues and conditions were 8/10 with lush fairways and rough but super slow greens. Maybe that's just how it is in winter. Front nine layout was pretty boring plus lots of street/hotel maintenance traffic and noise in between holes. The twosome couple let me play through at the turn and the back nine is definitely much nicer! Now we're golfing! Such a nicer feel for me on the back with rolling undulated fairways which you're rewarded with right away on #10 par 5 and continues for the next few holes. Surroundings are much quieter on the back nine which gave me more focus and also I had nobody in front of me to wait for until a foursome on #15 but they played fast. This is a challenging course especially the back nine which for me seemed to play longer with the wind keeping me short and what appeared to be more protected greens and lots more water trouble. And be prepared to be tested on #18 par 4 I think it said 391yds with water and guests watching you all along the left side. I felt like I hit a decent drive and ended up having 215 left to the front pin. On a par 4. I blame the wind but mostly myself for a poor drive. Tried to fade a 3 wood in there and splashed one instead, singing the double bogey blues in the end. Oh well. I'll definitely come back for revenge and hopefully the greens will be faster!
