Greens are none excitant. Very bad. More dirt than grass on the greens. Fairways are in fair condition.

Horrible greens!

Unplayable greens because they are burnt out so that two-thirds of the green is dirt! This course should be closed. There is also a plague of billions of mosquitoes! What a waste! I will never go there again!

Bad experience

Played 7/31/2020 I like the course and play it often. However I will not play Torres for a while until I hear that the course is in better shape. Some of the greens are in terrible shape.

Terrible

While the fairways were in good shape, the rest of the course is TERRIBLE..

Greens are unplayable, the sand traps have been abandoned and the tee boxes haven't been mowed in a week.

Pace of play was great because we were the only ones playing.

Mosquitoes at this course are the worst we've ever encountered and we have played in Alaska for the past 30 years!

TB is in a downward spiral...no players, no cash , no maintenance.

Played it a couple of days ago.

They need to either sh-t or get off the pot on this course. The

greenkeeper should be fired.

you might as well play the abandoned course at Rio Rico.

The owner, or owners need to throw seven figures in the course to get playable. They must not have the coins. They can't even put up a screen in the driving range so you can hit your woods.

Dirt Greens

We play this course many times throughout the year and I have to say we have NEVER seen the greens in as bad of shape as they are now. Major dead areas with no grass only dirt. What little grass available is bumpy and definitely affects the roll of your putts. We had to institute a 2-putt limit to even make it half fair. Fairways were in good shape but the green conditions pretty much ruined the round. AND .... make sure to take plenty of bug repellent!

Poor Course Conditions

While fairways were in good shape, It is ashamed how poor the greens are. Used to be in good shape. They are the worst I have seen, and I have played this course for 20 years. Sad. Not worth $30, not even worth $15.

Needs work

Although warned about mosquitos at check in, we sprayed and played. Greens were bare and sanded. Fairways good. Bunlkers weeds and water. Hole eight had clouds of mosquitos that were immune to repellent. We headed for the parking lot and called it a day.

Skeetos

Bring a bucket of mosquito repellant for when you try to put on these burnt out greens that are half dirt and half grass. Fairways are ok. Bunkers were a hodgepodge of normal soft and wet and hard. Back to mosquitos.

10 mosquito bites (with blood) before I walked away from the car. Morning tee times will be inundated with thirsty beasts. Dissipated a bit after 10.

Mosquitoes, Mosquitoes and more Mosquitoes

It was so badly infested that I only lasted 4 holes. Repellent was only attracting them. The pecan Grove next to the course was the culprit. Greens were in bad shape.

Course has potential but its not maintained well.

The course was loaded with mosquitos that seemed to be immune to mosquito repellent. The greens were sandy and in poor condition. The sand traps had grass and weeds growing in them. There is no beverage cart on the course and there isn't a snack bar so your only choice of beverage is beer in the golf shop. I beleve the course should discount their rates if they are going to run it on a budget.

Fairways would good and easy to hit off of

Greens were less than fair and there was no mention on tee off that they had recently been aerated

Bunkers were horrendous maintenance of the rough poor. Attention to the details that make a course desirable and a positive experience were lacking

Overall I believe I paid more than the experience was worth

First Time Playing

Could be better, but times are tough

Overall this place was great. A couple holes here and there needed some work on the green, but they fairways are nice. What do you expect trying to golf in 100 degree weather with no cart person to get you drinks. Let alone not have water stations on such a hot day. I understand COVID has changed some things but water is essential. I couldn’t bring enough water to make it through 9 holes because of their no cooler policy so the water I did bring was warm by hole 6. Not their fault though. That’s why they still get a good score from me.

Played Here Before. What happened while I was gone?

Played this course in back in 2016 and it was in really good shape. Decided to come back and boy was I disappointed. The bunkers were horrific and had more weeds than sand. Sand was super heavy and tough to play from and was more like wet clay mixed with really old coarse sand. Greens were also in rough shape on some holes. The played quite fast and didn't hold shots into the green even with an 8 iron. Fairways were in good shape though and tee boxes were ok. There is a huge mosquito problem as well so if you go bring bug spray. I was happy with the service of the staff though. I was unaware of the mosquito problem and a kind lady who worked for the course asked if I had any bug spray. I told her no and she told me to go into the club house and borrow theirs which made me really happy because boy did I need it.

Needs some TLC

I hadn’t played Torres’s Blancas in a couple of years. I was a bit disappointed. No sand in the bunkers, no water in the lakes/ ponds. No beer cart on the course.

The fairways were in better condition than the greens. Mosquitoes were the biggest issue, not sure what other courses are doing to control them but Torres Blancas needs to inquire. Like I said, probably won’t be playing there anytime soon. Our foursome was a bit disappointed.
