The Sun City South Golf Course is normally a private club but during the summer months, public play is allowed. The course has a traditional layout with four sets of teeboxes for a variety of different golfing options, which allow golfers to work on a range of different handicaps. The golf course has a fair share of challenges with several sand bunkers and plenty of trees scattered throughout. There are also out-of-bounds stakes providing more difficulty. Water hazards come into play on some holes as well. The Sun City South Golf Course facility has a putting green and chipping area for golfers to use in addition to the course.

inconsistant greens

The course is in OK condition. Some fairways are thinner than others. The greens were very inconsistant. Some were fast and others slower. Most of the greens had lots of ball marks. Several of the pins were placed on slopes. The greens did not putt true or hold their lines.

The weather was iffy....

but the course was in great shape. Pace of play was great until we caught up with a slow foursome in front of us. If they were aware of golf etiquette they would have let us, a twosome, play through. Instead we just bypassed the 10 th hole and were free and clear the remainder of the round...

Tricky greens from start to finish

Fun course in Sun City. Probably much harder from the black tees.

Sun City South

Course was in decent shape. Some thinner spots in the fairway. Greens seemed in good shape. Played in about 4 hours which was good, even though we waited on every shot on the back. Range was pretty beaten up but useable. Overall course layout was good. Very open fairways and rough so hard to lose a ball. Really good option at this price. Will go back again.

Enjoyable

First time playing this course so I didn't quite know what to expect especially given the time of year (mid-Dec.). The fairways and greens were in terrific shape, and even if you were off the fairway, you were hitting off dry grass, so not to penal. Pace of play was good- our foruseome finished in under 4 hours even being slowed occasionally by the group ahead. For a flat course it was nicely designed with doglegs.

Groups of 5

Course sends out multiple groups of 5. The group ahead of us had 5 golfers and our group of three was made into a group of 5. Don't know how many more ahead of us were 5 somes also. Pace was slow. Ranger came out to give us grief even though we were right behind the group in front of us because members behind us complained about pace. (a group of 3) Maybe if you didn't send out groups with 5 in them the pace would be quicker.

The course itself is flat and uninspired. A few holes were interesting, but nothing special. Considering their policy on group sizes and harassing the wrong people for pace I'd go elsewhere to play golf. I won't be back.
