North Golf Course at Sun City

Course was much greener and the greens in great shape. Last year rough was dry and hardpan but this year you can play off grass. Greens were smooth and very receptive. Played in 3:45 walking. This is a nice layout and decent test of golf. Staff are always friendly.

The course is in good condition from tees to greens. (If more golfers could fix their ball marks, that would be great)

The problems began when the course ran out of carts so tee times got all messed up. Groups were waiting well past their tee times waiting for a cart. We were walking so it did not affect our tee time. The Pro shop had us start off on 10 while another group for the same time started on 1 with carts. Some groups, for some unknown reason thought that they were playing the same 9 twice and did not cross over to the other 9. This happened with the group on our back 9 (which was the front 9 normally) They played the same front 9 along with the group ahead of them instead of crossing over to the back 9. This backed up the front 9 (our back 9) Not sure why if your playing 18 that you would want to play the same 9 twice when the course was fully open. I guess they thought since there was two duplicate tee time that they were supposed to play the same half the course while the other tee time played the other 9 twice.

I've noticed that other Sun City courses are doing the two groups per tee time and having one group start on 1 and the other on 10. This just causes more confusion at the turn. If you don't enforce golfers to keep pace, then this practice will just clog things up later. I'm sure that groups that started earlier that day don't like have a group suddenly appear in front of them on 10 either. Or start a new group on 1 when you started on 10 and now have to wait on them. Confused yet? You are not alone.

Good course for a reasonable price. Will play here again.

My gripe is not with the course but with the assioation the runs the place. We had to pay an extra $25.76. for a cart fee. We will find elsewhere to play the rest of the winter.

The course was in good shape. The one problem is still the same as has been in the past, and that is 5 somes, they seem want to place 5 people in a group expressly if you have a time thru golf now. The course is also ready to be off of cart path only.

Pace of play was awful. 5 hours is not acceptable. This is an easy course. We waited on every shot on every hole. Groups behind us started leaving because of pace. No Ranger to keep pace. Pro shop said the ranger was out there, but we never saw him and the pace was at a crawl. The fairways and greens were in decent shape. Greens a bit fuzzy, but they just went through over seed so not bad really. It could have been very enjoyable, but the slow pace killed it. After the 10-11th hole I just wanted it to be over.

Love the course however tee time was 11:37 2 cross over groups of 5 players were put in front of our tee time so we didn’t tee off until 12 :00. The pace of play by these groups was super slow. The gentleman in the pro shop was rude so I don’t think I will play there again.

No golf carts. No push carts. Had to trek the clubs 18 holes. Not sure if they always keep only 12 carts available at a time or if this was an isolated incident due to seeding schedule. Otherwise it’s a great course!

Really enjoyed ourselves, fairly simple course in great condition considering only second day open post-overseed. Looking forward to coming back again soon!

Played 3 hour round at 7 am on Saturday. Fairways and greens are in perfect condition (the greens are slow but true). Layout is not the most interesting, but the rough is thick enough to create challenges if you land there, and the greens have enough undulations to make them challenging. Would definitely recommend for the price.

Several weeks in a row playing North and other Sun City courses and it appears the maintenance staff, specifically mowers, are on strike or have been fired. The rough is extremely penalizing, losing balls a few feet off fairways. To their credit, the fairways are very nice but a good round is impossible to shoot unless you hit them all. Overseed is around the corner so how about giving us good playing conditions before you shut down for several weeks.
