Joined by a very nice twosome Tyrell and Paul. Our POP was horrendous at 5 hrs 20 minutes behind a packed tee sheet but our group enjoyed the round immensely even waiting sometimes 10/15 minutes per tee box at times. Super friendly staff at Soule Park. Couple notes before I get into the conditions. They are redoing the back tee on 2 as well as resodding the landing area just over the gorge. Nice touch! They also have the entire tee box on 10 closed where they are completely leveling and resodding all 5 tees. Current teeing grounds on hole 10 are down below the hill. Can't wait to see the new box there. The greens were in very good shape coming out of maintenance last month. Pin positions can be tough on these huge Gil hanse greens. Rolling medium pace, holding shots well and chipping very firm. Rated 8/10 Biggest change we saw was the rough around the Fairways and greens is thick! 4 inches plus in most sections, wet and grabby. Puts more premium on hitting Fairways and greens here. Rated 8/10 All tee boxes we played were level and lush and in good shape. Rated 8/10 Fairways are in really nice shape and a pleasure to hit from. Rated 8.5/10 Was in front greenside bunker on 14 that was well stocked with sand. The bunkers here are really penal at Soule. Rated 8/10 Highly recommend this track. Conditions will only improve with the warmer weather coming up. » Close 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 de... » MoreRode 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.

We really enjoyed our round lots of laughs and great shots. We had a consistent 15-18mph swirling wind which is common for afternoon golf in Simi Valley. Beautiful temps today in the mid 70s.
My 4th time here and conditions were very good with ample semi-lush fairways[8/10], nice level teeing grounds with only some divot damage on the par 3s[7.5/10], very thick and juicy lush rough[8.5/10], medium paced greens that were semi receptive and rolled slower than our group expected[7.5/10]. Was in 2 greenside bunkers and two Fairway bunkers that had ample grainy sand[7/10].
Fairly tough layout 135 slope with some narrow undulating greens, many red staked penalty areas and some afternoon wind to negotiate. To me I love the back nine here especially holes 10,11, 15,16 and 18.
Highly recommended! » Close Walked the blues yesterday 4/2/24 joined by 3 nice singles. We had an interesting wind to say the least.

Drive on 12 over the green and drive on 14 had 68 yds in taking a crazy line just right of the green to give you a couple examples downwind. Drives into the wind on hole 11 and 13 maybe got 220 yds and went nowhere...lol. Total pop just over 4 hrs. We moved well towards the group ahead of us and never saw the group behind us. Beautiful but windy day for golf. Back nine start teeing off late morning. Interesting playing 14,16,18, 1,2,3 all downwind. I think it makes the back nine a touch more manageable. The conditions continue to excel at Rustic. Probably the nicest I have seen the tees[8.5/10], greenside rough[9/10]and fairways[8.5/10]. The greens[8.5/10] were in great shape,, super smooth around a 10.5 on the stimp with no ballmarks evident. Was in Fairway bunker on 10 that was hard packed and really nice to hit a wedge out of. Very friendly staff, still a great price especially walking during the week, great layout and superb conditions right now. I can't recommend this course more than now for conditions. Go play. » Close Walked the blues this afternoon 3/18/24 with my buddy Matt under mostly sunny skies for most of the day and a heavy downpour of rain for 10 to 15 minu... » MoreWalked the blues this afternoon 3/18/24 with my buddy Matt under mostly sunny skies for most of the day and a heavy downpour of rain for 10 to 15 minutes after we hit our tee shots on number 6. POP was around 4 hrs 20 minutes. Joined by a nice twosome who also walked. If you had a camera today would have been the day to use it. The sun piercing through the clouds with as lush as the course is was mesmerizing today. Greens were in great shape rolling around an 11 on the stimp and holding shots beautiful. Several birdie pins today and some other ones tucked like back right shelf on 18. Not many ball marks to fix and they were rolling pure. Rated 8/10 Fairways are lusher than I am used to on my home course. They are a pleasure to hit irons off of but contain little to no roll. Rated 8.5/10 Greenside rough is 8.5/10 beautiful lush and cut uniform. Fairway rough has improved over the last year and is thicker than in previous drought years. Was in one bunker left of 15 that was hardpacked but still easy to splash out of. Tees are in really nice shape, level, cut tight and lush. Rated 8/10. Nice to have number 16 and 17 back two tees back to normal as the last round I played here they were not allowing golfers to tee off from the normal teeing grounds. This is about the lushest I have seen Rustic since it opened which was over 20 years ago. Still some bump and run shots available but also some shots now you can take right at the pins. Highly recommended if you like green and lush. » Close
