Played yesterday morning with friends. I normally love the course but current costs don’t equivocate to the conditions. I understand you have to aerate, but fairways weren’t cut, no roll and being a senior that doesn’t hit the ball as far as he once did, hitting longer irons and fairway woods hitting into very slow greens making the course even more challenging. That’s on me. Pace of play, a little longer than normal due to one very slow foursome that I was told letting other foursomes play thru. Nothing a week or so won’t cure.

Played yesterday with buddies. As I’ve said before, a hidden jewel. I’ve been coming here the last few years and it’s always worth the drive. In the early morning, beautiful views, mild weather and great course conditions. Pace of play has been a steady four hours give or take 10 minutes. The back nine in my humble opinion, 2 to 3 strokes harder, especially now that I’m getting older and don’t hit the ball as far. The sand in the bunkers nice and fluffy ( I still wish more players would rake them after they’ve plodded through), a great change from LA munis.
The greens can be very tricky. Take the extra 30 seconds and get a look at both sides of the pin. The staff is A plus. Again, very worth the drive.

Played Harding this morning with a good friend. Right now, for a City course, it’s in terrific shape. They punched the greens a couple of weeks ago and they are running medium fast and true. Most bunkers in decent shape and that goes for the tee boxes. The fairways and rough were as good as I’ve seen in awhile. Played in under four hours. I believe they are punching Wilson’s greens nest week, so give Harding a try. Great morning.

Played yesterday morning with buddies. Always enjoy playing Glen Annie. The weather was in the low 70s, the views gorgeous and being an 805 senior member, the rate not bad. First, the greens were on the medium side. They were a little slow in the morning dew, but sped up as the day got warmer. They punched the greens about 12, 13 days ago, so in another week they should be pristine. The fairways were in good shape. The bunkers are more dirt than sand but, consistent. The tee boxes needed mowing but, I believe they want the root system to expand a bit. The pace of play was just under 4 hours. I’ve heard from some that think this course can be a little quirky. I think it’s a very fun course to play. I always seem to play the tenth hole over par. The lies are uneven and that hole just doesn’t suit my eye. The rest of the course is very getable. The staff very friendly. I drive from Santa Clarita, so coming up the 126 early in the morning, stopping at Anna’s Bakery for coffee and a danish with friends, how can you not have a great day.

Played yesterday 10/12/21 in the morning. Harding, for a municipal course is in pretty decent shape at the moment. Our foursome finished in just under four hours. The greens rolled medium fast. The fairways were in good condition although, not cut yet so minimal roll. I was in one green side bunker that had raked sand that was easy to blast a sand wedge thru. I have an LA City senior card so for $36.00 with a cart like I said, a decent value for your buck. Harding is usually easier to get on than Wilson. Oh, and we had a local coyote follow us on the first hole.

Played Olivas early this morning, actually we were the second group out. The course is in magnificent shape. The fairways were lush like carpet. I was in one bunker and the sand was medium fine, easy to get your club thru. The greens were the best I’ve seen on a Southern California public course. Played in 3 hours and 45 minutes. By the time we finished, course was getting busy. It was too early for any cart person so can’t comment on that. All in all a fantastic morning to escape the heat and play a well manicured course.

Played with friends this morning in just over 4 hours. I’ve always enjoyed Rancho but don’t play it much because of how busy it gets. For all the play it does get, it’s in pretty good overall shape. Tee boxes decent and the fairways which have some patchiness but gave better than average roll. The bunkers, at least the few I hit in, had very playable sand. Finally, the greens, I thought were on the medium fast side. All in all for as much play as this course gets, it’s a true value with a lot of history.

Played yesterday, the 4th in two foursomes in the morning. I like the reassigning of holes on the front side. Even though this course is a trek for me to get to, I’ve always like the layout. Right now typical winter conditions. The fairways are dormant so you get that extra ten to fifteen yards of roll. The greens are in great shape and seem to hold approaches. The rough was patchy on some holes but very manageable. It’s a nice change getting away from the kikuyu/crab grass around the city courses. The rye grass gives you more choices around the greens. It turned out to be a gorgeous day with fantastic views. Some of the guys had never played Oak Quarry but really enjoyed it. All want to come back, if for anything, the plush golf carts.

Played this morning with friends. We had two foursomes. Had to pay full price because didn’t at first realize that our coupon said after ll:00am. Stupid me, but as much as I like coming out here to play, it’s not worth $73.00. I believe they’re strict about it now because with Sandpiper and Rancho San Marcos still closed, they can. I could swear that earlier in the year coupons didn’t have restrictions during weekdays because we always play in the early morning around 7am. The course was busy. I’ve noticed since the virus and getting one to a cart, POP has been faster, three and half to four hours. Not today, a little over 4 1/2 hours. Waited for every shot. Okay, enough of my whining. The greens are still very good, just a tad on the slow side. A few marshy areas around the greens where the water collects. I wasn’t in any bunkers today but noticed a lot of footprints and unkeptness around green side bunkers. Tee boxes okay. Fairways have some brown spots but it’s summertime. This is target golf and if you have some course knowledge, you can score. Always beautiful and cool by the coast but much better at $40.00 than $73.00. Out.

Played early this morning. I have wanted to drive out and play since I read what great shape Soule is in through GreensKeeper.org. My buddy and I were not disappointed. We both agreed that Soule is in the best shape we’ve ever played it. We played as a twosome and it was pretty slow until the foursome ahead of us (they were apologetic) let us play through on the start of the back nine. Tee boxes level. The fairways were great. The bunkers had raked, playable soft sand. The rough was not too penalizing. Finally, the greens were pretty good. There was still a little residual sand on them that made them a tad slow. Just a tad. Probably still about a 10 on the meter. It’s starting to get hot so I truly recommend getting up early and driving out to Ojai and playing this gem.

Played with friends this morning and were the 3rd out. POP, 3 1/2 hours in a cool overcast sky. San Dimas isn’t that long but played longer due to the heavy air. The course isn’t in bad shape, but, in my opinion, not in great shape. In contrast to the prior review, they must have moved the tee boxes because we were hard pressed the entire round To find a level one. The greens were very good. Nice fluffy sand in the bunkers. After many years of coming out here, hit my first power line on nine. I’ve always thought the layout interesting and maybe play this course four times a year coming from Santa Clarita.

Played this morning. Had two foursome times to get together with friends for some birdies and skins. The course is in great shape right now. Perfect weather, no wind and the scores reflected as much. Greens were true, although the pins were in some treacherous spots. I was in two green side bunkers that were raked with nice sand. The only slight complaint is, I wish more players repaired their ball mark on the greens. POP 4 hours. I normally play the majority of my golf on city muni courses in LA, but I must say it was nice chipping out of two inch rye grass than the normal Kikuyu crab grass I usually stick a wedge in nearer home. This is one of my favorite Ted Robinson courses in SoCal.
