Weather on the peninsula lately has been gorgeous. I took the opportunity to get out around Noon on Sunday. I normally don’t like playing on the weekends but it was just too nice not to play. I opted to ride (in order to rest my legs for the bike) and with having to wait on every shot it was nice to have seat available. The POP aside which was a little over 4.5 hours but felt closer to 5.5 hours, it was a great day. Conditions continue to remain steady at Laguna Seca. Fairways were excellent. They matched that of Poppy Hills from last week. Greens were smooth, but a bit on the slow side. Not sure if it’s because they are still recovering from recent aeration or it’s just the normal speed for here now. Greens at Laguna Seca are sneaky. they don’t look wicked but they can sneak up on you.

Tee boxes had good coverage yet there are a handful that need to be re-leveled. Nothing extreme but getting to the point that it needs to be addressed. Bunkers were the weak link on the course. Only 1 out of 4 that I was in had decent sand. The rest were hard packed dirt and one was mud.

It’s still a super fun layout and with prices the same (maybe even a bit lower) than they were 4 years ago, I have no problem recommending this track.
