Played 8/14 at 2:15, GolfNow rate $34. Wow, what an amazing course! It is visually stunning, with tons of bunkers/waste areas, man-made lakes that look like they've always been there, huge, very undulating greens, and lushness everywhere. Great clubhouse, superb practice facility, and great employees. Actual playing conditions were not so great, it didn't play quite as good as it looked. It was about 98 degrees out, so the course is watered for summertime to keep the grass alive. This made for soggy tee boxes (but they were all absolutely level), wet greens that had tons of ball marks that could never really get fixed, and lush rough that had mud beneath. And the bunkers were pretty solid. Those things are to be expected in this season, though. The experience and the value were still amazing, I will not hesitate to return the next time I pass through Bakersfield.
