Got off at 7:27, just before the ladies, today. Last time I played here, while not as bad as I've seen it, for the amount of play it's been getting and the money they are making I thought it was a travesty. I am very pleased to say it has really turned around. Tee boxes weren't lush but they were pretty good. Fairways had great coverage. Rough had just been mowed, but from the number of balls I found it was a beast. Greens were NICE. Punched about three weeks ago and they are great right now. Rolled medium fast and true. Sand in the traps was plentiful and well cared for. There were honest-to-god mowed collection areas around some of the green complexes, something you don't usually see here. This course is cursed by three pretty crappy holes, IMO, 4, 16 and 18, but the rest is a very fun golf course with fantastic views. You get a nice bit of work in if you walk, earning yourself a couple beers after the round on the patio with one of the best views of SD from anywhere. It's not Torrey, it will never be a US Open venue or on the coast, but it's not $300 to play and it offers a little piece of SD and a good time for less.
