Great condition

Hunter Ranch is in excellent condition right now. Greens are absolutely superb. They are rolling super smooth at a nice fast pace. Fairways have filled in nicely from the winter conditions. Fairways are nice and lush and offer a good amount of roll out. Only a few brown spots throughout the course which given the water shortage right now Iit’s understandable. Bunkers have high quality sand Most tee boxes are level with ample coverage.

Staff is friendly and the restaurant is great as well.

The layout at Hunter Ranch is super fun. Well worth the drive and price of admission

Back 9 is tough.

Would recommend this course. White tees were very challenging. Blue, extremely difficult. Had a great time.

Great greens, pace of play disappointingly slow.

Course was in good condition, fast rolling contoured greens with an interesting undulating course layout. I played on a Saturday with a slow group ahead. Unfortunately there was no Marshal available to police it. Overall a great course to play when you want a break from wine tasting in the great Paso Robles area.

Tough track, well maintained

We hit this course once a year, on our way down to Carrizo Plain. It's a tough test with some difficult tee shots, fast contoured greens, and plenty of hazards to gobble up golf balls. Pace of play was a tad slow, but that's to be expected on a Sunday afternoon. Last year we played both Hunter Ranch and Paso Robles CC. This year we just played Hunter Ranch twice, since it outshines PRCC by a wide margin. Highly recommended!

Great course and staff

Beautiful course in great shape tee to green. Plays tough but a great experience.

My only negative is why close the bar and restaurant at 4:00 PM? Seems like they’re leaving a lot of money on the table?

HR

Rode the Blues (6751/72.1/136) in just under 4H with Spenser, Ralph and Javi mid day on a GN "Hot Deal". Sunny, calm and around 75. Challenging course in nice overall condition.

Tees were mostly level/lush and well maintained for divots.

Fairways mostly lush and good to play from.

Rough was fairly lush close to the fairway. Thick even though mostly mowed down. Thinner the farther you got from the fairway to hardpan under the huge oaks.

Sand traps had good quality sand and were very well maintained.

Large, undulating greens were smooth, quick and firm. They rolled very nicely, holding irons with minor run out.

Customer service very good. Quick efficient check in. Drink cart around a couple of times, and an open Restaurant @ the turn. Nice carts with GPS. All grass range is okay. Both the layout and the greens are well above average. Best course on the Central Coast IMO, definitely recommended

HUNTING BIRDS

Whenever you can score a tee time here for $50-$40 you are living the high life. Normal green fees are for the affluent. GolfNow makes the Hunter experience richly enjoyable (pricewise). Best overall tee boxes in SLO County & challenging greens make for a great journey into high end golf round. Staff has cooled their jets on condescension towards GN customers, and have lightened their need to make you play with other GN tee timers. Much improved from a couple years ago.

Love the layout and conditions. Staff is excellent, course is in great shape. Pace of play is extremely slow. If you’re not worried about that it is a challenging and fun course.
