Rode the Blacks (6642/71.9/127) on a GN Hot Deal mid day as a single. 2.5H POP, only saw a couple of other 2somes. Sunny and calm around 95. Tees were lush, level and well maintained with few divots. Fairways were lush and nice to play from. Rough is a thinner mixture of grasses with decent coverage. Not tall but can be penal because the lies will vary so much. Sand traps were decently maintained, a few could use more sand. They have rakes again. Greens were smooth and putted medium fast. Firm, so even well struck irons would release. Few ball marks because of their firmness. Fairly wide open course with a good mixture of holes. Few forced carries other than several holes with lakes. This would be a challenging course to walk because numerous tees are a hike from the last green because the course is split up between multiple different residential complexes. All grass driving range is in the wash beside hole 9, where they also have a practice chipping green. Could use more water stations on the course, but they provide a stocked ice chest. The customer service is always excellent from everyone encountered. Upgraded carts equipped with Shark Experience GPS. Joe with the carts is always great, and the Pro Shop check in was friendly and efficient. I was running late, called ahead and was advised no problem. Rarely an on course drink cart here. Nice layout in good condition with 18 solid holes of golf. IMO, one of the better values in the greater Palm Springs area. Recommended.
