From 6/10/24 Had the treat of playing at Copper Rock Golf Course in a fun money game with my Oldest Daughter on the Bag! It was a Magical Day at one of the best golf courses I have ever played! CRGC is a Hybrid Desert / Mountain Championship Course that features countless elevation changes, strategic bunkering, fairway mounding and moguls, streams, waterfalls, lakes, arroyos, beautiful nature, copper rocks, lava rocks, canyons, along with numerous water hazards. In many ways this course reminded me of Nicklaus Design without being such (Designed by Dale Beddo), as architecture was immaculate for the amazing topography offered by Southern Utah. There was never a copy-paste or boring moment on this course, with views being simply breathtaking. I am still buzzing from playing this track! The course was challenging but always fair and played in a “what you see, is what you get” manner. The course played its yardage, fairways offered moderate roll out on drives and greens held approach shots well. The course was very well manicured and in Outstanding Condition for the time of year! The course layout is rated a 5 out of 5, conditions are rated a 4.8 out of 5 for this time of year. I note the following: Tee Boxes: Level and green, no damage. Condition excellent. Fairways: Green, lush, and defined from rough. Condition excellent. Greens: Green, medium-fast in speed, with medium firmness. Noted to be undulating and tricky to read at times. Speed about a 11. Condition excellent. Sand: very well maintained, and heavy. Condition excellent. Rough: very well maintained and defined, about 3 – 5 inches. Condition excellent. Water Hazards: Water features were very well placed but never unreasonable to the player. Such were noted to be very attractive which provided an additional beauty element to this very fine golf course. Condition excellent. Waste Areas: Waste areas were maintained with manicured nature that offered little to no recovery potential. Condition excellent. Driving Range and Practice Areas: The range was incredible with its glorious back drop of Zion National Park and Sand Hallow State Park. Furthermore, the range was off grass that is in as good of shape as quality fairways. Range included various markers from 75 - 300 yards with runout at about 350 yards. Range balls were quality Callaway range golf balls that were very well maintained. I also noted a very nice chipping area and practice bunker. Excellent practice facility here. Practice Putting Greens: Two were noted. Large and in excellent condition. Speed was consistent with course. POP: 3.5 hours – no wait was encountered on any hole. We paced ourselves accordingly. Pro Shop: High quality and beautifully stocked. Service received was excellent. Food: They had a small restaurant adjoining to the Pro Shop. It was limited, but certainly not bad or great. Customer Service: Perfect! Really enjoyed this course and I strongly endorse playing CRGC if given the opportunity. This course is a fair test of golf that comes with a great surrounding environment, and an overall beautiful scenery. I will play CRGC again if given the opportunity. I place this course as my favorite course in Utah! This was a 5 Star Experience! So blessed for the opportunity to have experienced this course!
