I have been playing golf since I was 11 years old. Grew up in Chicago, played on the high school and college golf teams. Moved to California in 1970. I play a lot of golf, average about 350 rounds a year. The only thing that keeps me off the course is frost. I'll play in rain, wind, fog, heat/cold, etc. I play super early every day because I hate waiting around.
As I age, it has become difficult to accept that I can no longer play to the level I once played too. While I still love the game, I have tended to isolate myself because I am embarrassed by the deterioration of my skill level. However, I am still on a quest to accomplish my long time goal of shooting my age. Finally on October 3, 2020 at age 72, I was able to accomplish my goal of shooting my age. Shot 71 at Coto de Caza - south course from the blue tees.

I was surprised the green speeds were not quicker. Not that they were slow by any means, just not as fast as expected. Overall, the course continues to improve. Question is if they can maintain these conditions as we begin to experience the anticipated heat of summer. » CloseFirst out as usual on a busy Friday morning.

Lots of maintenance, which is a good thing, I guess. Course has been steadily improving with the recent change in management. Greens rolling very true with decent pace and very receptive. Fairways are now getting really nice. Bunkers, surrounds, tee boxes all are fine. Nice to see the level of care now being exhibited, which was long overdue. » CloseNice to get back out to Dos Lagos.

It had been almost six months since I last played here. As always, Ruth in the pro shop was a joy to deal with. What a great way to start the day with such a positive person to deal with prior to your round. It was rather busy this morning, but able to get out early thanks to Ruth and finished in 2:19.
Course is not in as good condition was when I last played, particularly the greens, which were kind of slow and did not roll very true. Fairways were nice, however. Several of the tee boxes, particularly #16 were in desperate need on being resodded. Enjoyed the round despite my poor play. Always good to begin the week on a positice note. » CloseHave not played Shandin Hills in almost four years. Wow - has the condition of the course deteriorated since then.

After reading the most recent reviews, I did not have high expectations, but even given that, it was disappointing to see how far this course has fallen. The fairways were not too bad, except for the areas which had drainage issues, and bare spots. The bunkers were not good looking, but actually were not too bad to play from. However, the tee boxes were not even close to being level with a lot of divot damage. The greens were slow and really bumpy. The ball just kind of "wandered" to the hole, not true at all.
What bothered me most of all was that we caught the men's club shotgun on the backside, which I had been advised about. No problem, but I watched as EVERY player riding in their single rider cart took the cart right up to the edge of the green on every hole. They would then drive off using the area between the green and the bunkers, which meant they were probably driving on collars of greens in many cases. This just demonstrates a total lack of respect for the golf course and every other person playing. Rude, lazy and selfish.
Jeff in the pro shop was a joy to deal with. I doubt he is aware of how abusive the men's club players are to the course. I cannot in good conscious recommend this course in the condition I experienced it today. Sorry, because I have always enjoyed Shandin Hills. » CloseOut early as usual on a not too busy Friday morning. Course conditions continue to improve.

Attention is finally being given to the bare areas on some of the fairways, which is long overdue. Greens have nice pace and are very receptive. I am optimistic things will keep getting better. (Just wish my golf game had the same prognosis) » Close
