Carts are WAY too expensive

I love RedTail, learned how to golf there 14 years ago. But it’s insane how expensive they are price gouging customers. I get inflation goes up, but they took advantage of it since covid. It’s $40 for a cart to play 18, it was as much to play as it is to ride. 4 years ago it was $20 for 18 driving.

The Go-To Course in Beaverton

RedTail is easily the go to course in the Beaverton and West Portland area for the everyday golfer.

The Practice range and facilities are the best you are going to find without going to a private club or Country Club, and the ProShip is the best in the area. The Pro Shop has lots of deals and sales going on all the time for Golf apparel. clubs, golf balls and more.

Since this is so popular, the course is usually filled with the everyday golfers and typically a younger demographic.

The course isn't too difficult by any means, but the conditions are usually a little wet and due to being pretty packed during the peak season, because of this, the course can be a little rough sometimes.

The last time i played (March 16th) the fairways were not even fairways, but they were mud filled with long grass, you were almost better hitting in the rough areas rather than the fairways because your ball would get plugged into mud and lost in the fairways. But this is mainly due to the heavy wet season we have had.

During the late spring and Summer the course is pretty well maintained, apart from the greens which are usually a little rough due to the volume of golfers.

All in all i would absolutely golf here again, preferably later in the season when the course has some time to grow and get to it's potential.

Swamp

For 64 dollars I could play quail valley and it's in better shape. I get we live in oregon and I get that it rains. I just want red tail to charge a better price it they can't even use the mower in the fair way for over half the course. Most course will offer a discount when they sand the greens, red tail should offer a discount if the ball plugs in the far way on 80% of the course. The other thing that bugged me was the Marshall was on use for pase of play when we had play for 2hrs 30min on 12 hole. If the course is the reason the pase of play is slow they should not try to shoe horn as many people in to the course. I will not be coming back to this course.
