We had a Marshall follow us for 4-5 holes and finally asked him why. He said "we lost touch with the group in front." When we teed off there was no group in front and we played the front nine in less than 2 hours. Suggest Marshalls check with starter before annoying customers that are playing a prompt round.

Course is in excellent condition after the RSM Amateur and the ladies Big West tourney. Greens rolling true even though a bit bumpy in lower areas. Creek Card is the way to go. 10 buckets of balls, 2 lunches and great discounts on green fees. Pays for itself after 1 round.

Nice day at Tijeras. Fairways and rough in good shape; bunkers too. Greens were a little bewildering. They punched over 7 weeks ago. We played here two weeks ago and they were perfect. Today, all the front nine greens had bumps in them from where they'd been punched. Could have been cuz it was later in the day. But, greens weren't the best. Everything else was great. 17th pin was brutal. Loved it! Although the blue pin was placed very close to some damage on the front of the green. Marshalls were great. Things got a little slow mid round and he let us know that there was an open hole 5 holes in front of us and that he'd asked everyone in front to pick up the pace a little. Their creek card is a great deal. we played for $35 today at 2pm and finished no problem.

Course still good overall, only the greens still needing recovery.

I play here once a month. Gotta say, greens were a little disappointing today. Still haven't recovered very well from punching almost a month ago. Lots of work going on around the course. Fairways were thin in some spots. 8th green had a line of sand running through middle of it, although pin was below it. Range balls could use some updating. Play at a discount, but don't pay full rate. Nice staff.

Played on 2/25 and course held up well from rains. All greens are aerated for some reason but held balls exceptionally (due to moisture from rains). Plush fairways and tee boxes and rough is brutall... Continue »

Played on 2/25 and course held up well from rains. All greens are aerated for some reason but held balls exceptionally (due to moisture from rains). Plush fairways and tee boxes and rough is brutally long (reminds me of PGA West Stadium length). Played a best ball (along w/my own ball) since we teed off as a 2some and we were able to par the course via the best ball format. Round took 4 hours. There are some pretty holes on this course and plenty of forced carries over water or canyons to make things interesting. Once it dries out more and the greens overcome their recent aeration the conditions will be superb.

Another good day at Tijeras. Fairways are very lush, as is the rough. Rough very thick. Greens were bumpy and slow; the only negative. Pace of play great.

Well worth the drive from Newport which only took 25 minutes. Great layout in great overseeded condition. Greens are awesome.

Today was the first time I played Tijeras after several years of meaning to. It had been one of my buddy's favorite courses, so I was looking forward to playing. The first thing I noticed was the indifference of the staff. It was almost like you were inconveniencing them by being there. We were also paired with a couple of very beginner golfers, and that made for a very long and slow round. We only saw the drink cart 2 times all day. The front nine is a normal, run-of-the-mill set of holes, where you can get the same feel at Camarillo Springs, River Ridge or Knollwood for much less money. The back 9 is much more interesting. There are a couple of interesting par 3's and 4's. The greens could stand some marshalling, as there are many unfixed ball marks around. Overall, the greens just looked a little neegelected. On the upside, the fairways and rough were really nice, they are generous with yardage markers on sprinklers. Luckily I had a half off coupon which made it $40. I can't say that it would be worh $80.
