Mather Golf Course

Outstanding staff, from pro shop to starter to Marshall’s. All excellent, helpful and friendly.

Just a horrible poorly maintained golf course. No way would I ever suggest this course to anyone and I don't want to sugar coat this review and have other interested golfers be mislead. The practice areas were average at best but not bad enough for a bad review. Then we (my wife and I ) teed off and once on the fairway saw how poorly kept the course was. There was more dirt than grass! No choice but to roll your ball to find some grass. Same with the rough. The golf cart had seen better days with stained seats torn and stressed. The greens weren't bad but few fixed their ball marks and don't miss the greens. Honestly, I would not return if this course was offered for free. I don't know who "Mather" was or is but I would be terribly embarrassed to have my name associated with this golf course.

Need to play on a facility with great greens Mather is right up there. Good speed, good roll, and slight angles to give a good practice place, to get it rolling right

This is a long straight course with no unique features. Water hazards are minimal fairways are wide bunkers are fairly placed so the course is very fair but not particularly interesting. The greens were in great shape for January and the course not too muddy for winter play. Nice staff and good value

Is a fun and rewarding course, low risk high reward and can’t really lose balls. Overall a great course to work on your game.

I like the course, it's perfect for my level (2 years playing golf). I'm sure I will come back and play it again, maybe next time would be on a weekend to check how busy it really gets. But for weekdays, it's a perfect place to play a round of golf.

course was fairly dried out. Lots of bald spots but this is late in the year. Greens had been punched About two weeks ago but no disclosure online or at the course. Greens were a little furry and slow. But all in all not a bad experience for the $31 we paid

Great to start out with friendly and helpful staff. Generally, the course has wide open fairway. Not many hazard around except for one hole. Paid lower rate due to aerification condition but the green was fast even though the conditions of greens was not perfect.

Mostly wide open fairways with occasional tree trouble, few traps, average size greens and one water hazard. Average quality overall and not my favorite kind of course as thin lies are the rule this time of year.

Course is in great shape and far more challenging than Wildhawk and in better condition.

The fairways are mostly wide open outlined with trees but challenging in length. There are a lot areas of thin grass and tough lies. The traps are decent with a fair amount of give. There's really only one hole where water comes into play. The greens are dry but roll true so you get a fair chance to score. There's wild turkey everywhere but that's all I ever see for wildlife. There's periodic water buckets and an outhouse on the back 9 only, no other restrooms on the course. On this day I got a great $12 Hot Deal so I was glad to come out but it's not one of my favorite courses. Nice people but It's tough conditions when there's hardpan soil.

2nd time on this course, I'm impressed with the staff that always make you feel welcome and were very helpful concerning course conditions and which T's would suit my play. Rode the course the first time and this time I walked the course. Moderate walk, pace was great.

Warm up range is grass which I like and always in good shape.

Mather is an established track with a variety of tees, amenities and scenery. Jets are everywhere and the staff is super friendly what else can you ask for?

Great day. Nice pace. A 3 hour round on a Saturday.

I will start with staff friendliness and cold water EVERYWHERE. All over course they have cold water double barreled on some holes front tees and back! Good food and drink too. Nice touch to a very nice, Donald Ross like design course with fewer sand traps in my opinion...he has only one course on the west coast, that being Peninsula CC in San Mateo built in the 20's. That said, this Mather course is fabulous. Love the aircraft golf carts which I took advantage of on my second round replay after a nice walk. Last three holes are awesome, as is the entire back nine. It has a long touch to it, straight mostly which lets you bomb away to wedges in if you want, and two dog leg lefts on back asking for more. Front plays straight all 9 holes, with short to low mid irons in. You will bomb away with 3 wood and 5 wood too on the par 5. Tees, fairways are good. Greens and pin positions are great. Approach shots are right in front of you and fun to hit at. Looking at pins from tees nearby was visibly what golf is all about. They put pins in right spots to make it interesting. Its rare to have a simple, walk-able layout be that good in Sacramento. Play Mather.
