Rode the Greens (6705/71.3/124) late afternoon. Played with 2 guys who were good and had playing fast down to a science. We played the 18th basically in the dark to finish. How fast did we play? A 3some all with their own carts played 18 holes in 1H, 50M. Low 100's, breezy and clear. The Resort course is definitely the better of the two Tahquitz courses. Older, traditional track without many upgrades. Few homes around the course is a +. Like the layout. however, the playing conditions, while better than the Legends are still mediocre. Bermuda tees were semi lush, mostly level and in decent condition. Bermuda fairways are mostly generous in width and were semi lush with some brown patches. Bermuda rough was mowed down low. Mostly semi lush, but there were many browned out areas that were thin to semi hardpan. Traps were decently maintained with mostly fluffy dirt. Bermuda greens were smooth but slower than the greens on the Legends course. Medium speed at best and they are firm. No on course services and the restaurant was closed late afternoon. Few water stations on the course. Customer service was excellent with the pro shop and cart staff. No GPS on the basic carts. All grass range with a decent short game practice area. Decent, fun layout. Usually a good budget alternative in the Palm Springs area, but would wait until after fall over seeding based on what I experienced today.
