Had an 8:12 time Sunday morning. Showed up around 7:45 and noticed no one was on the course and lot's of cars heading out. Outside temp reading from the car was showing a balmy 47 degrees. Got to the starters window and there was a sign that said the course was closed because of "Frozen Greens" and would stay that way until at least 9:30am. Not a sign of frost any where and the practice greens were just fine. I understand the need to protect the integrity of the course and not to allow play when a signiifcant amount of damage can occur, BUT......it was close to 50 degrees!! Thumbs down to the crew at Hansen.

Wednesday afternoon round took over 5 1/2 hours. I will say that it was a consistent 5 1/2 hours. Not rush then wait.

Wednesday afternoon round took over 5 1/2 hours. I will say that it was a consistent 5 1/2 hours. Not rush then wait.

The course itself is in decent shape. The greens are in the best shape I've seen them. They are faster than normal for here. The greens are quirky though, there were a couple of putts that broke one way for some of us, and the opposite for someone else. Even with the greens in good shape, I hate putting at this place.

The rest was average. Fairways were acceptable, tee boxes were flat, but some thin areas. The sand was not very consistent. Hard as a rock in one area of a bunker, soft in another.

Played 10/23. Greens are in very good shape after aerification about 6 weeks ago. A couple of the greens are a little soft so you get some footrprint problems, but overall, they are the best I've se... Continue »

Played 10/23. Greens are in very good shape after aerification about 6 weeks ago. A couple of the greens are a little soft so you get some footrprint problems, but overall, they are the best I've seen in a while. The fairways are spotty. Some are green with some decent grass on them. Others have some bare or thin spots. Overall, a good value.

service on the course was fine. service in the coffee shop was poor.

VERY DISAPOINTED , THEY RECENTLY RAISED THE PRICES ON CITY COURSES, AND THEY ARE IN THE WORST SHAPE I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS , WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING ?

I don't know what those last two guys are talking about. 6 hour rounds at Hansen Dam? Did you play on a Sunday at 2:00 when it's busy everywhere? And how can you say Griffith Park & Rancho are better? They are 3 times as busy. And they are not in any better shape. Especially Rancho. Plus those two courses have very rude starters (except the early morning guy at Griffith). If you ever need a marshal at Griffith Park you need to call the snack bar. Hansen Dam may not be in tip top shape but it is one of the best city courses for the money.

This is just one of LA's muni's, but there are many others that are much better. For instance Rancho and the Griffith Park courses blow this away. I played here because I'd heard a lot of hype, but I ... Continue »

This is just one of LA's muni's, but there are many others that are much better. For instance Rancho and the Griffith Park courses blow this away. I played here because I'd heard a lot of hype, but I was definately dissapointed. Bottom line, if your're gong to play the 5-6 hour round at a LA muni, you might as well play on a good course.

I played Hansen Dam two weekends ago and it was the worst golf experience that I have had in a long time. The starter was rude and threatened to "sell" my tee time to another group and once we got on the course it was backed up from the second tee on. The round took over 6 hours. This may be a decent course, but the overall experience is horrible.

I played this course for the first time, Fri. afternoon,4/24/03. Play was alittle slow initially but then even out by the 11th hole. The fairways were a bit thin but the putting green were running moderately fast with some inconsistencies. Nice elevation changes and a few challenges that are not noted on the card.
