Not the best
The course was pretty stacked up and a group was holding the course up for most of the time. The greens were being worked on as we were playing so you had guys on loud equipment interfering with the game which was a bit annoying. First time playing the course and I don’t think I’ll be back.
Great Day
Started early to beat the heat. Was getting warm when we finished about 11:15. Nice course. Had some good challenges with traps, water, trees and curvy sloped greens. I’m ready to try it again.
Hidden Mesa Gem
Dobson Ranch has always been a course that has excellent playability if the course is maintained. The greens were in good shape and the pace of play was steady. For a municipal course , I don't know if you will find a better one in the country.
Great day!
A great institution especially applicable for the locals as we get fantastic rates to play! Thank you!
Great staff and environment
First time, range tracer was excellent. Staff was very friendly and course well maintained. Love the Bluetooth speakers on the carts.
Disappointing
Dobson used to be my regular spot, but it’s been very disappointing this year. Prices have significantly increased and the course is in worse shape than it was previous years. Not sure why that is. there are large sections of both overgrown weeds and mud with no grass at all throughout the fairways and rough. The greens were aerified weeks ago and still haven’t recovered. Not to mention how difficult it is to get a tee time here. To top it off, the Marshall was rude and pushed us several times even though we finished 9 in 2hrs and 18 in 4hrs 2 minutes, with no one pushing behind us.
Awesome
Staff is the friendliest and most welcoming in the entire valley. The golf course may be a "little" rough due to the summer heat, yet is still one of best layouts in the valley of " the sun". I am most fortunate to call this golf course my "Home" course!
It’s sizzling hot right now!
Considering the location, smeltering AZ, the course and facility is excellently good for golf with staff and management most welcoming…as a Mesa resident, the playing deal was exceptional, thank you…can’t wait for winter!
Summer conditions
The staff are always super friendly at Dobson Ranch. Unfortunately, this course hasn't done all with the summer heat wave we're experiencing. Fairways and tee boxes are very patchy and they have some foreign grasses taking over. The greens were not bad, but have been better. Maybe wait until the fall and the course can come back a little. Again, staff and range are always awesome!
Good Good Dobson
Finally got to play Dobson again, with living out West of Phienix it's a long drive to Mesa. But was looking forward to see the driving range and the new merchandise from GOOD GOOD at the Ranch. Course was average for July, with Arizona having our hardest Summer heat from June. I can't imagine how hard it's to take care of everything on the course. Still loving the challenge of Dobson Greens, still was rolling great. All and all great round, got pair up with some amazing Golfers. The a bitter pill to swallow at check in staff in the morning, an employee just bickering about customers and accused myself showing up late with their group. I wasn't part of their group nor I showed up late. It's okay to vent, just might want to wait till customers can't hear.
Glad we could get an early time
Slightly cooler day but still pretty much a death march on the last 5 holes. Course is in excellent shape...a real surprise given our awful July. Greens rolling very good, tee boxes fine, some bare patches out in the fairways. And as always, an outstanding Dobson Burger to finish things up. Still one of the best deals in the valley.
Poor conditions
I understand the summer heat but it looks like the money is being spent on the driving range and not on the course. Anytime you have an abundance of ants it tells me the course is not healthy. Weeds or scalped area all around the greens. Will not play again until Course is better maintained.
Greens were good. Service at the 19th hole was excellent.
Good times
The improvements that have been made at this course are making Dobson Ranch a "go to" destination for the local golfer AND their families. KUDOS!!
