Played in the GK/Vivid outing last Monday in a 10am shotgun start and finished in a little under 5 hours. Tee boxes were level with full coverage and cut tight. Fairways were in really good condition with great lies and decent roll out. Rough was in great shape, playing 1-2 inches longer than fairways and not to difficult to hit from. Was in one greenside bunker that had a very nice layer of well groomed white sand. Greens were in great shape, rolling medium/fast and pure, and playing semi-soft. Always a treat to play this course.
Highly Recommend.

The Saticoy Club is the closest course that resembles Augusta National here in Southern California. Golf greats in the past such as Fred Couples would use The Saticoy Club as a tune-up weeks prior to playing in the Masters. So its an honor to have our annual “Day After The Masters” event at this spectacular private course.

Monday featured, as always, an immaculate conditioned golf course, outstanding service and beautiful coastal weather with views of the ocean. The Saticoy Club is a special place for any golfer and a must play. It’s 1 on my list to join someday and it’s the #1 course in our Vivid Golf / Golf Moose/ Greenskeeper.org Private Course Events.

Thank you everyone that came to Monday’s event and others I’ve organized. Thank you to our Ventura County GK event staff of rgm2525, mark_6m and GDR23 that helps me make these event days so special.

Check out the photos I just posted and GDR23’s excellent review detailing the playing experience below mine :)

Great times out at the "Coy" today with buddies John, Ron and Mark riding the blues in 4 hrs 55 minutes as a part of the Vivid/Golfmoose event in group 1b. Weather started out calm and the breeze picked up to 2 clubs pretty much after hole 4. Beautiful day with clear skies and temps in the mid 60s.

The conditions here would continue to even impress tour pros.

Fast undulating green complexes where the stimp was maybe an 11. Most all shots held if struck with compression and spin. Hardly any ballmarks and a true fast pure roll was encountered. Rated 8.5/10

Fairways were in beautiful shape with great lies in addition to rollout if you stripe a lower trajectory drive. Rated 9/10.

I thought the rough was close to a 10/10 in that is was super lush even though just off the fairways it looked manageable. Very uniform in nature cut at the perfect challenging length

Parkland style layout with some elevation changes, doglegs, undulating green complexes, very nice strategic greenside and fairway bunkering, scoring holes in the par 5s and a couple strong par 3 holes in #4 and #10.

Never miss an opportunity to play the Saticoy Club if you have the chance to!

The Saticoy was again awesome!

Once again, the Saticoy was incredible. I don’t have enough positive things to say about this course, iThere are very few courses I can think of as far as layout, conditions, and environment that would be better in SoCal.

The course played its yardage, and fairways offered roll out on drives and approaches. The course is very well maintained and in overall excellent condition. The course layout is rated a 5 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.8 out of 5. I note the following: Tee Boxes: Level, and always green, no damage. Conditions excellent. Fairways: Green, lush, and defined from rough. Grabby with limited rollout. Conditions excellent. Greens: Green, fast in speed, on the medium to firm side, and very tricky to read at times. These Greens are a true test. Speed about an 11. Conditions excellent. Sand: Maintained with excellent consistency. Conditions excellent. Rough: Maintained and defined, about 3 – 4 inches. Conditions excellent. Waste Areas: Noted on a handful of holes, and such were maintained with overgrown nature that offered little to no recovery potential. Conditions excellent. Driving Range: The range was scenic, hitting off an artificial turf surface. The range places you on a mountain top hitting into a valley with various greens and markers that are situated in an area that is fully grassed, with markers from 100 - 225 yards. Range balls were quality Callaway golf balls. Range runout was about 275 yards. Practice Area: I noted a very nice chipping area on a lower tier away from the driving range. Conditions excellent. Practice Putting Greens: Two mid-size practice putting greens were noted, both in excellent condition. Speed of the practice putting greens were consistent with course. POP: 4.95 hours – no wait was encountered on any hole. We paced ourselves accordingly. Other: Noted a beautiful clubhouse, restaurant, and golf shop, all were top tier. Customer service was top level. And the food at the Snack Shop was lights out good! Thank you, Johnny and GreensKeeper.org for this GK / GM Outing!

Played 1-12-26 mid morning shotgun in the Vivid/GK outing with nice sunny skies on a semi windy day. Tee boxes were in great shape, good coverage, cut tight and level with minor divot damage on the par threes. Fairways were in really good condition, wall to wall green with good roll out and semi-tight lies. Rough was playing 1-3 inches, in great shape, very lush and thick. Was in a couple of greenside bunkers, both of which were nicely groomed with a good amount of semi-firm sand. Greens were in really nice condition, rolling smooth, medium/fast and playing semi-soft. Always great to get out at Saticoy with very friendly helpful staff on such a wonderful course.

1-12-2026: On a very windy day when I needed my golf bag to help hold down the Vivid Golf check-in tent, it was another fantastic experience having an event at The Saticoy Club.

The golf course was in, as expected, exceptional condition. Greens smooth, firm, medium fast. Fairways lush, firm, with very few blemishes. Rough, primarily fescue, lush, beautifully defining the fairways with the primary rough (3 to 5 in) and secondary rough (8 to 12 in). Bunkers were well maintained, a little firm (which I like), with quality sand. Tee Boxes, we played the blue tees, lush, cut tight, with very few divots.

I can go on and on about how fun, challenging, diverse and gorgeous The Saticoy Club layout is which recently hosted an LPGA event. The views, especially on our crystal-clear windy day, are jaw-dropping of the ocean and surrounding mountains. But I’d rather have you view the photos I just posted because seeing is believing :)

From a golf course organizer’s perspective, it’s my #1 course for Private Club events. It always sells out. It always delivers a fantastic experience on all levels with the highest repeat event rate of the 30+ courses I’ve been doing private club events at for the last 4 years. It’s the only course for 2026 I’ve booked THREE events at. I always let players know that come to my events, or are considering coming, The Saticoy Club is a can’t miss opportunity to play.

Thank you so much everyone that comes out to play. Big thanks to rgm2525, GDR23, mark_6m and barkydog1, my Ventura County event team, for doing a super job with this event. And a huge thanks to The Saticoy Club for allowing us to experience their spectacular golf club.

Great time out today 1/12/26 walking the blues with buddies John, Ron and Matt. We were met with fierce Santa Ana winds sustained 25mph with gusts up to 35mph+ and temps around 72 degrees. Pop a little over 5 hrs. Well run golfmoose event. I loved the experience of being able to walk this layout today. Saticoy CC staff should be commended after receiving a ton of rain and damaging winds these last couple of weeks. The course is in fantastic shape. The rough was about the thickest I have seen it just off the fairways. 3 to 4 inches thick with emerald green color. It was a club grabber and at least a half shot penalty. One of the highlights of the course. Rated 9.5/10 Fairways were very spongy, mostly all lush with great lies and hardly signs of any drainage damage from the rains last week. Rated 8.5/10 Blue tees were level and in good shape with good coverage. Rated 8/10 Greens were in great shape!! Rolling like true glass surfaces. Stimp 11, probably closer to a 12 on downhillers. Very few ballmarks present. Greens are a great challenge here at Saticoy. Had one of my better putting rounds and saw the lines great today. Rated 9/10 Was in greenside bunker right of 4 green that was firm and was in fairway bunker on 15 that had perfect firm sand to hit from. Rated 7/10 Layout is strong here and one of the better tests in VC/SB county. If you want to challenge yourself go play it now with the current rough length and quick greens. All staff were super cool today. Cart attendants very friendly. Nice driving range with two nice putting greens and members here are blessed to have such a great short game area just down the hill from hole 10. One of my favorite courses in socal. Go play. .

The Saticoy Club was a sensational experience Monday as a player and event organizer.

I know The Saticoy Club does a great job managing their water resources so they have plenty of supply for the dry SoCal Summers, but it never ceases to impress me how green they can maintain the course.

We’ve added extra fun to the events this year with the Vivid Golf Tent and Pre-Rounds Skill Challenges. The Saticoy Club staging area is perfect for accommodating and their outside services staff were always happy to lend a hand.

Right now, I can’t recommend The Saticoy Club enough. It’s my first choice for golf events and if I was looking into a club membership in LA or Ventura County, my first choice as well.

THANK YOU everyone that comes out our Vivid Golf / Golf Moose / Greenskeeper.org private club events. Its so great to see more GKers playing them.

THANK YOU GKers rgm2525, itslikeimsayin, GDR23, mark_6m and barkydog1 for you help. Was great to have a full Ventura County region GK Events staff on hand :)

The Saticoy was again a Dream Boat! Unfortunately, my golf game was E.L. Dog Vomito… Thank goodness I had most excellent playing partners Johnny and Mark!


As with past reviews, I don’t have enough positive things to say about this incredible course, it is such a great course and a true test of golf, especially on this day with the rough grown juicy and iron play being back to expansionism status.


There are very few courses in Southern California I can think of as far as layout, conditions, and environment that would be better. The course played its yardage, and fairways offered limited roll out on drives and approaches. The course is very well maintained and in excellent condition. The course layout is rated a 5 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.8 out of 5.


I note the following:

Tee Boxes: Level, and always green, no damage. Condition excellent.

Fairways: Green, lush, and defined from rough. Grabby with limited rollout. Condition excellent.

Greens: Green, fast in speed, on the medium to firm side, and very tricky to read at times. Speed about a 10.5 - 11. Condition excellent.

Sand: Maintained with excellent consistency. Condition excellent.

Rough: Maintained and defined, and juicy! About 3 – 6 inches. Condition excellent.

Waste Areas: Noted to be more overgrown than in the past with nature that offered little to no recovery potential. Balls were not found in these areas on this day. Conditions excellent.


Driving Range: The range was scenic, hitting off an artificial turf surface. The range places you on a mountain top hitting into a valley with various greens and markers that are situated in an area that is fully grassed, with markers from 100 - 225 yards. Range balls were quality Callaway golf balls. Range runout was about 275 yards.


Practice Area: I noted a very nice chipping area on a lower tier away from the driving range. Conditions excellent.


Practice Putting Greens: Two mid / large-size practice putting greens were noted, both in excellent condition. Speed of the practice putting greens were consistent with course.


POP: 4.8 hours – no wait was encountered on any hole.


Other: Noted a beautiful clubhouse, restaurant, and golf shop, all were top tier. Customer service was top level. And the food at the Snack Shop was lights out good again!


Thank you, Johnny, GreensKeeper.org for this Vivid / GM Outing! This Outing and The Saticoy are simply stated, First Class!
