Played this morning. Still good Sr rate with Sr card at $36.25 for 18 w cart, $22 to walk. Course in good condition all around. Nice green fairways giving good lies but still soft so not much rollout. So we all know the course is long, so play it forward if need be. Rough was playable and so were the traps but many were not really raked very well, so we made our own rule of allowing raking then placing and playing ones shot. Greens are in good shape and putt very nice and with decent speed. Good customer service at check in. Course could use some new carts IMO. POP was right on 4 hours.

Nice to get out early without the threat of frost or CPO due to rains. As they will be punching greens next week, the greens as you might expect are really nice right now. Roll true with a quick pace. Fairways are lush and have good coverage. Bunkers are great as usual. Very busy this morning, but able to get out first, so pace of play not an issue. Other than dealing with a lot of maintenance, which goes with the territory, very enjoyable.

Played 4-15-24. Got out for a $35 rate. Course is still getting back to its one time perfect conditions. There are still some dry areas and the greens are recovering from aeration so a little slower than usual but a pleasure to play. I have always felt that you can put up with a lot of flaws if the greens are good and that is the case here. It is not the gem it once was but getting closer. Check it out if you are in the area it is well worth it!

From 4/8/24

Enjoyed another wonderful GK / GM Outing at WRGC. WRGC is a fun Players Course but on this day it was tough test of golf with wind speeds that exceeded 20 mph at times. WRGC is a very well-designed course that places premium on accuracy off the tee and into greens. The course features clear definition between its mid-sized fairways and rough areas, well placed bunkering on fairways and proximate to greens, along with strategic water hazards on a couple of holes, and normally with fast greens, but not on this day, as greens were much slower than normal which actually played to the courses difficulty.

The course is primarily flat except for 7, 8, 16, and 17 which have elevation changes from tee to green, along with some attractive views of localized orchards. The course plays like a Championship Style layout. The course seemed to play much longer that it's yardage due to the wind. The course was in above-average condition overall. The course layout is rated a 5 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.2 out of 5. I note the following:

Tee Boxes: Level and lush, no damage. Above average condition.

Fairways: Green at times tight. Above average condition.

Greens: Green, slow in speed, with medium softness. No damage observed. Speed about a 9.5 - 10 in speed. Above average condition but lack of speed was odd for WRGC.

Sand: Well maintained and firm. Above average condition.

Rough: rough was well defined from the fairway and green collars but not too overgrown, about 2 – 4 inches. Very grabby at times. Above average condition.

Waste Areas: - Waste areas on various holes did not offer the opportunity of recovery due to their overgrown nature. Above average.

Driving Range: The range is always excellent but hitting from mats. You are on an elevated perch hitting into a grass valley with green markers at 100, 150, 200, 225, and 250 yards. Range ran out at about 300ish. Range balls were your typical yellow rangers, but in good condition.

Practice Putting Greens: Both practice putting greens are ample and very well maintained. They seemed inconsistent with the speed of the course greens on this day, but representative of the speed I have encountered in the past when playing here, which is about an 11.5ish.

POP: 4.75 hours – no wait was encountered on any hole.

The WRGC facility included a nice snack bar at the turn, and a very nicely stocked pro shop. Service received was excellent.

Really enjoyed this course and certainly wish I could play it more often. If looking to join a quality golf club with the emphasis on golf this is a really good one.

From 3/25/24

Sunset Hills CC is a very well designed golf course that offers a variety of golf holes that are fun, interesting, and challenging. The course is built onto a scenic mountainside that features views of localized mountains and some local housing. This gorgeous course features large mature trees, strategic bunkering throughout, and several elevation changes.

Sunset Hills CC places premium on accuracy off the tee as you are hitting into narrows fairways, and into small greens from the fairway or on par 3s. The course defends itself with its narrow or small landing areas, well positioned bunkers, medium length rough, and fast sloped greens. There were a few doglegs and some blind shots. The course is always a challenge and requires the execution of quality shots at all times, as being offline here introduces difficulty to achieve recovery. The course played its yardage, and fairways provided limited roll out on drives and approaches.

The course is well maintained and in overall above-average condition. The course layout is rated a 4.5 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.3 out of 5. I note the following:

Tee Boxes: Level and green, no damage. Condition above average.

Fairways: Green, lush, and defined from rough. Grabby with limited rollout. Condition above average.

Greens: Green, medium-fast in speed, on the medium to firm side, and tricky to read at times. Speed about a 10.5. Conditions could be better, but still better than average.

Sand: Maintained with excellent consistency. Condition excellent.

Rough: Maintained and defined, about 3 – 5 inches. Condition excellent.

Waste Areas: Maintained with overgrown nature that offered little to no recovery potential. Condition excellent.

Driving Range: Non-existent.

Practice Area: Chipping area and green present. Condition excellent. Speed of the practice putting green was consistent with course.

POP: 4.75 hours – very limited wait was encountered, all good. We paced ourselves accordingly.

Other: Noted a nice restaurant and golf shop, all appeared high grade.


This is a great golf layout without a doubt, that requires a solid golf game to score. I loved this track and hope to be able to play it again in the future. Fully Endorsed!

Thank you Johnny and GreensKeeper.org for this GK Outing!

Enjoyed another round of golf at OCC a few weeks ago. Again loved the experience and conditions. As previously reported, OCC is a mature championship style course that features large mature trees that line fairways strategically. The course is primarily flat and includes a large wash that comes into play on at least 6 holes. This is certainly a walkable course for all. OCC places premium on accuracy off the tee and into greens. The rough on this course will kill your score if you miss fairways and greens. The course is also well bunkered on both fairways and along greens. Greens were soft, always held good shots, and ran fast. The course offers views of the Glendale Mountains. The course played it's yardage, fairways offered little roll out on drives. The course was very well manicured and in excellent condition. The course layout is rated a 4.25 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.75 out of 5. I note the following:


Tee Boxes: Level and lush, no damage. Perfect.
Fairways: Green and lush. Almost perfect.
Greens: Green, fast in speed, and on the firmer side. Some of the best greens I've played, almost perfect. Speed about a 11 – 11.5.
Sand: Well maintained, soft, and heavy. Explosion approach needed.
Rough: rough was brutal by design. Very well maintained and defined, about 4 - 6 inches with bury effect.
Waste Areas: - Waste areas were noted on a handful of holes and were well maintained overgrown nature with little to no recovery potential.
Driving Range: The range was also very nice, hitting off an artificial turf surface on this day. Range is flat, fully grassed, with various markers from 100 - 250 yards. Range balls were premium Callaway golf balls.
Practice Putting Green: Not too large, but in excellent condition. Speed was consistent with course.
POP: 3.5 hours – no wait was encountered on any hole.
Other: from locker rooms, bars, restaurant, and the golf shop, all were top tier.


I always love playing here when given the opportunity, this course is always in excellent shape, and offers a great test of golf. It defines itself well as a Players Course. If given the opportunity, don't miss out on playing OCC.

Rode the blues this morning as a part of the GK/Golfmoose event in group 1b joined by Marc and his brother Israel under beautiful weather around 70 degrees for a high and light wind speeds maxing out around 10mph.

One of my favorite courses in socal. Beautiful greens rolling around a 10.5 on the stimp, super pure with very little ball Mark damage and holding shots beautiful. Rated 8.5/10

Fairways mostly lush with great padding to compress irons. Rated 8.5/10

Tees perfect, level and lush. 9/10

Rough super lush, juicy and in great uniform shape. 9/10.

Was in one greenside bunker and one Fairway bunker that were raked and in great shape. Bunkers are usually lacking in socal but not these beauties. Rated 8.5/10.

Traditional semi-parkland style with lots of doglegs, some elevation changes, plenty of awesome strategic bunkering and I feel maybe the best back nine in the whole county.

Don't ever miss an opportunity to play the Coy.

I played Chester Washington on Thursday 4/11, the first time in a while and a few weeks after they aerated the greens. The greens are healing nicely. You can barely see the punching grid pattern at this point and overall the greens rolled decently. You can't really blame missed putts on the aeration. The fairways are in the best shape I've EVER seen them, like perfect carpet with the right amount of give and firmness for both hitting irons and giving rollout on tee shots. Also, and this is a big story, the rough has been cut down to a reasonable length so balls aren't impossible to find when you miss a fairway -- haven't seen it like this ever either. Pace of play was surprisingly good -- we teed off at 8:40 and finished close to 12:30. I'm guessing in the next week the greens will pretty much be perfect, and I might get out again next week because I enjoyed it so much. Highly recommend Chester Washington right now.

Played saturday 04/13 with a good group of buddies. We were lucky enough to tee off early and beat the majority of the weather. Course itself was as you'd expect from American Golf. Mediocre.

Greens were okay - bumpy and a bit shaggy. Very inconsistent - practice green was fast, actual greens were SLOW. But - with that said, they were very receptive and you could spin the ball as desired. I like to play the one-hop and stop chip and it was definitely doing that quite a bit. Boxes (backs) were hit and miss. #1-3 were great, then came some "meh", then there were a few that looked like they were abandoned years ago (thinking #10 & 12 specifically) and are turning into a goat pasture. Didn't find any sand, but playing partners said it was hard under a very thin layer of soft stuff to make it look soft. Could have been the weather, so wouldn't hold this part against them too much.

Will definitely be back...very walkable and easy to get a bit of exercise in on.

Played friday 04/12 so I'll just apologize that this is a little tardy here. Course itself was in great shape. Just in time for them to close down and punch today with no discounted rates.

Fairways were in fantastic shape - maybe some of the best i've seen here in a very long time. All covered with nice green grass, mowed nicely, just finally coming together. Boxes were generally placed on flat ground and well covered. Greens were rolling smooth and true. Rough wasn't too punishing and a few areas were a little thin (10 left of the green specifically), but all in all was a well manicured course.

With that said - the one thing I wish they would pay a little more attention to - the fog. The fog was ridiculous. Could not see where you were hitting on 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 or 9. It wasn't until around 930/10 that it lifted enough to finally have a good view of where to play the ball to. Could definitely be dangerous, so they need to up their GPS game to show where the carts are (I think they tried, but it was showing us ghost carts in areas that there were no carts at all - think middle of the ditch on #6).

Played 4/13/24 8:50 POP 4 hrs. $126. Third time playing this course and I really enjoy it.
It's visually narrow and in some places is narrow. It's the fairways that are cut fairly narrow and can even look more so when the rough is dormant. On this round everything was starting to green up. Rough was a light green in most places and seldom caused any issues. Some areas still dormant & brown. Fairways were in great shape. Emerald green with great coverage. Not as lush as many of the other courses and cut a little tighter, but they offered great roll out and played really nice. Greens were in great shape. Well struck balls would check up, but there was not a mark to be found or made on them. They ran true at a medium slow pace. It took us a few holes to determine that you needed to take out about 50% of what ever break you thought there was. Was not in any traps, but most looked fair, some could use a little TLC. Tee box's all good. Did not see any cart service out. A great addition to any weekend golf outing. Easy recommend.

Out as a single joining a two-some for 1:22 start on Friday, 4/12. Not disputing 24hourgolf's recent review but we had slightly different experiences. In this case he is the earlier morning guy while I'm early afternoon. As to overall conditions, the course is in pretty good shape. Playing the whites, the teeing grounds were level and covered with the par threes a bit more worked, which is to be expected. Fairways are green and in good shape and the rough mostly green and playable. The bunkers were on the firm side, with the ball tending to perch, not leaving much depth to footprints, but with enough give to be fair play. Areas surrounding greens were mostly good for short game although the fairway lies close to the green were frequently tight for chipping. The greens were pretty clean and short on pitch marks, running on the quick side. I've seen them a little faster but overall they are as good as it gets here.

The service was friendly and they made the effort to avoid having me go out as a random single when a scheduled threesome didn't show up. I snagged some leftover balls on the range for an abbreviated warm up and it's not uncommon to find some left as players advance to the first tee. Worth checking before buying a bucket. Where I tend to corroborate 24hourgolf is on pace. It was something around five hours but that is a number that can feel a little quicker if the pace is sluggish but consistent. On the day it was more impactful because of the erratic nature of it. For example, get through the first three holes with no issue and then a three group pause at the par-3 fourth. Better pace after that until another pile up on the par-3 eighth. Same for the par-3 12th. Too much opportunity to sit and get stiff but we're talking about Friday afternoon. I usually find the pace here better distributed and get around in about 4.75 for less. So know what you might be in for, but I enjoy the course and still recommend it, especially as to current conditions.
