Walked the golds this afternoon 12/22/25 at 12:10pm with my buddy Mark, his buddy Kyle and a nice single Ed out from the Midwest. Very little wind today under partly cloudy skies and cooler temps for Goleta around 60 degrees. Met by nice proshop and cartbarn staff. Used there putting green which mirrors speed on the course well. Our pop was 4 hrs 35 minutes finishing with about 15 minutes to spare. Greens were in great shape rolling very smoothly and were very firm above the hole. Greens held iron approaches so just a beautiful combination. So these are what pga tour speed greens are like 12 stimp and pure glass Rated 8.5/10 Fairways were in good to great shape with only minor portions wet/muddy. About 95 percent of every Fairway was perfect. Rated 8.5/10 Tees very lush, some divot damage on par 3s and mostly all level. Rated 7/10 Rough just lining the Fairways in great shape. 9/10 Was only in one bunker right greenside on #14 that was nicely raked, contained just enough sand and had that wet brown look and texture that all the bunkers have here. One of my favorite courses in socal. Highly recommended!!
