Tremendous day out at Los Robles for just my third visit this past weekend playing in an RPGC men's tournament. When I saw this one on the calendar a few months back I just knew that I had to be there as Los Robles is a super fun course to play, and it did not disappoint. My flight played from the blue tees and I rode for the day. The driving range is good but nothing too fancy and is a decent walk from the pro shop. Had a 10:30 tee time on a picture perfect summer day with little to no wind as well - ideal. Course conditions are really terrific. Greens were so good - running fast and smooth, holding shots and lines well and just overall being a real treat. Fairways, despite the summer heat, have held up incredibly well and I had good lies all day. The rough was also in good shape and voluminous but there's not a ton out there with all the native areas. Tee boxes were mostly all in very good shape - flat and level. Bunkers were slightly inconsistent but only between good and great - so no worries there. POP, which seemed like it was going to be a problem as we were the final group and at one point had a word from the marshal for being a hole behind (one of our players was VERY deliberate with his seven practice swings on each shot), ended up being just fine and we actually closed out exactly on four hours. Amazing. We certainly picked it up after the warning and the results showed. All in all just a super outing (despite my poor play yet again) but Los Robles continues to climb in my personal ranks of SoCal's most enjoyable 18s. Get out there soon.
