Played 11/23/24 11 am POP 4:05 Course is in overall decent to good shape. Fairways are cut tight and mostly dormant, but have very good coverage. They have painted them green. They play fine with very good roll out, but have mostly tight lies. Greens were in mostly great shape. Receptive and ran well at a medium pace. Noticed many bumps and wobbles, but they putted well. They have done repair work on many of the greens with replacement sod patches. Mostly on the fringes. Seldom caused any issues. Traps firm, tees a little above average for typical Mt. Woodson shape. Always enjoy playing this course with the views, and fun layout and they continue to improve the conditions. I wouldn't call it "Lush", but it is playing fine and it is a easy recommend.

My group had not played Mt Woodson for a couple of months due to conditions the last time we were out there. We were pleasantly surprised to find the course in great shape. The fairways and greens are the best we have seen in a long time. The course still suffers from poor tee boxes. We attribute this to the small size and no ability to recover from play. The other weak point is the sand traps. There a a few good ones but generally they are hard-packed dirt. Woodson is a fun course that requires you to put the ball in the right position. It is back in our rotation.

Played yesterday, Monday, Oct 14, Columbus Day. 12:40 start time. Busy at check in, but went smooth. Guy at the cash register was trying his best to give us a discount asking if we were over 60yrs old, or veterans, we politely said we don't qualify for any of those, so $60 with cart was the rate (not bad for a holiday in my opinion). We teed off right on schedule. Great POP of 4.25hrs, as well.

Course is always a blast to play. It's in fairly good overall condition and will only improve over the next few weeks.

Teeboxes were level, but very fluffy. They weren't mown for several days it appears. Not a big deal.

Fairways were good to very good. Decent roll out, nice lies all day.

Rough was up a couple of inches and could definitely affect your lie. Take an extra club and grip it and rip it.

Bunkers were pretty hard pan underneath and fairly damp. Try and avoid them at all cost right now. You can get the ball out of them, but the margin for error is high. Got to hit it perfectly from the bunker to have any action on the green.

Greens were punched a couple of weeks ago and they were very bumpy and a lot more shaggy than normal. About the only weak spot on the course. In a couple of weeks, I bet they will be great. They held shots very well, but putting was a challenge, I had 39putts and missed about 6 putts inside 10feet for birdie. Frustrating to say the least.

Customer service was great all around, saw the beverage cart a couple of times and everyone in the pro shop and grill area were great.

Highly recommend. Especially when the greens heal and they mow the tees.

Played 8/17/24 11:40 POP 4:05. Course remains in over all very good to great shape. The two exceptions are the Tees & traps. The tees have always been a difficult part of the course to maintain from the above average use of irons off most of the tees. They are in some of the worst shape I've ever seen them. Often difficult not only to find a somewhat level stance, but to even find a small patch of grass to hit from. Many of the traps are hard packed dirt. It's really unfortunate, because the rest of the course is in very good shape. Fairways mostly lush with good roll and very nice to hit off. Greens in very good to decent shape. Receptive, but a little bouncy on some rolls at a medium pace. Summer has caused a few trouble spots along a couple green fringes, but most are in good shape. Pace of play was good and temps were warm, but decent. I love the mountain feel of this course and the scenery, so If you can deal with difficult tees the course is still a good recommend.

Played 7/20/24 7: 30 am Course is overall in really good shape. Fairways green and mostly lush. A few thin areas and bare spots, but mostly lush, decent roll and very nice to hit from.
Greens were in great shape. An occasional sick or area under repair, but mostly in great shape. receptive and ran around medium pace. Traps & tees are the typical week spot.
Easy recommend.

Played 2 April--Carts only--layout not conducive to walking. Greens have recovered nicely from recent aeration. Don't let the relatively short course length fool you--the layout is challenging and forces planned shots. Be sure to ask the Starter for a crib sheet if you haven't played here before. Bunkers are typical SoCal hard pan (bad, in serious need of sand) but the challenging layout, awesome views and friendly staff make the trip to Ramona worth the effort. Restaurant and Pro shop are a plus--they have what you need at reasonable prices. Enjoy!

Chose to Schedule a GK Cup match here with Solinari619 yesterday and was accompanied by Rudyclub and my buddy Jake. I snagged a 10 AM Tee time for the rack rate of $85 which is a pretty good deal for a prime mid-morning time on a weekend these days. We got to the course about 45 minutes early, hit into the nets (no driving range) for a bit, and had a tasty breakfast at Stoney Mountain Grill. The staff here is very nice especially the lady in the restaurant just very nice people all around. We tee'd off on time and waited a few times but still finished in 4:30 so no issues there.

The course is in good shape right now with a lot of green grass from the rains. Fairways had good coverage throughout the course there were still a few areas that were a little wet but nothing unmanageable. Tee Boxs were a little chewed up which in my oppinion is kind of normal here as they are not the largest tee boxes and a lot of player dont need to hit driver with the shorter holes. Rough was generally good but there was some different typoes of grass growing faster creating some splotchy spots on occasion. Sand traps need a lot of work I was in 4 or 5 sand traps and only one had sand in it. The rest was like 1/2 of sand then hard pack. Greens were pretty good but my god were they firm and quick. All of our putts rolled smooth and true but speed was a factor all day. Also unless you had a high towering shot it would bounce on the greens. Rudyclub had one bounce 5 feet in the air. Once we realized they were firm it wasnt too big of an issue. They are getting ready to punch the greens so that may be a reason why they were so firm and fast.

Overall I love the layout of this course as its a very risk/reward type course. Also its not long at 5800 yards but there are tons of elevation and dog legs to deal with. The carts are basic with a cooler and no GPS. There are plenty of yardage markers on the course to help with distances if you dont have a rangefinder or GPS. One thing to note is they are currently digging up the lake between 1 and 10 in order to put a new liner so the hole 10 tee box has been moved way up into the fairway making it a 140 yard par 4 haha. They should be done in 2-3 weeks. This course is a must play if in the area as the views alone are worth the money.

Played 9/10/23 12 pm $80 OP 3:45. I have driven by a few times and have noticed how lush the fairway's looked and begging me to come play on them. They were in the best shape that I have seen them in a long time. Mostly full coverage and green with only an occasional GIR mixed around. Not a lot of roll out, but they played fantastic. The greens were in just as good of shape. There were many greens with GIR spots along the fringes, But the remaining portions were in great shape. They were rolling well and very receptive. Hopefully they come out of the aeration in as good of shape or better. Tess were mostly a mess. Most are pretty beat up and was a little difficult to find a good spot to hit from. Was not in any traps, but are a mixed bag of hardpan to good. In a couple of weeks when greens heal and cooling temps, an easy recommend!

Played 5/27/23 11:50 am POP 4.5 hrs. Course is in overall good shape. Fairways have mostly good coverage and mostly green. Good roll out and ball sat well. Starting to firm up and dry out a little, but still play very well.
Greens were in very good to great shape. Receptive with decent roll at medium pace. Typical Poana blooming can cause ball to wobble a little. A couple of ill spots mixed through out the greens, but will cause few issues. Traps firm and mixed. Tees typical. Some good, some not so good. Overall fun and in good shape. Easy recommend.
