Christmas Golf

Decent course, greens were very good. Some holes too tight together and dangerous chances of being hit by stray balls. Bunkers need more sand and course was very dry and hard, do not miss a fairway or solid hardpan. Great warm up range with launch monitors, overall 3.5 of 5.

First time at The Ranch

Very happy with this course. Nice amenities for the range and practice green. Overall very nice conditions of fairways and greens. A bit of residual divots on the greens. Pace wasn’t too bad but we were waiting at every tee box.

Go Play

DRGC was in good condition; a little damp which required clean-and-place, but not unreasonable. Tee boxes were fair; greens rolled smooth and true; sand traps appeared to be in good shape (fortunately I did not land in any); rough was dormant Bermuda grass, which was playable. Pace of play could have been better (problems appeared on the back 9), but still finished before dark. Value was good. Overall, course consistently delivers. On this day I played well, shooting a 78. Look forward to returning soon.

Great Course

We had a great time. Needs to be a large fence on holes 9 and 10. Golf balls almost hit us from the driving range plus it was hard to find our balls due to the number of driving range balls on the fairway. Other than that, the course was great.

Too crowded and slownplay

Wife and I booked a tee time and got paired with two people way better than us. Pace of play was so slow, seemed like the goal was to jam as many people through the course as possible. Waiting at each tee box for 10 mins because of 2 groups in front of us. Would not play again.

Great shape

In awesome shape, bunkers need sand loosened up is the only complaint on course. The only other thing is that the carts are disgustingly dirty, gives you a bad vibe right out of the gate, simple fix would go along way
