Palm at McCormick Ranch Golf Club

Just had fun after not playing and practicing for 2-3 weeks. Bermuda is coming in even without consistent 100 degree weather. Got paired with 3 randoms and I had a blast. I shot two under par. Just had fun worked on my game and enjoyed the summer day! About 95 degrees and a little breeze. Course is not in bad shape to start the summer season. Greens are maybe a 10. Just a tad slow but they will be rolling faster soon with time.

We played three other courses on this trip for lesser amount that were by far in much better shape.

This course is in such poor condition I felt like an idiot for falling for their scam. You’re a complete sucker if you play their back nines and they do nothing about the complaints. The customer service is very poor. Mud balls, casual water and mud everywhere. Many of the greens are diseased. But hey, here’s two positives: the few greens that were not diseased were fun to putt. Cart girl was absolute smoke show!!! I felt bad for her having to work in such poor conditions. This course is a mid tier muni at best. I can’t reiterate how poor the customer service was addressing my dissatisfaction. Do Not play this course!!! It is also deliberately unclear when you reserve your tee time if you are reserving the front nines or back nines. I thought I was reserving the fronts…I think it’s deliberately vague.

Still water in bunkers and water puddles that swallow your golf ball all over the course. Plus it was advertised as the Palm course, but noooo, the starter told me that what I got thru golf now was the back nine on the Palms and the back nine on the Pine course. These are two completely separate coursed! This is almost criminal. Never ever will I step foot on those swampy grounds

The course is in awful condition. I have not played a course in worse condition and I have played some terrible courses. The fairways are crab grass, where it isn't dirt. The greens are diseased and unplayable. There was group of 5 in front of us, with multiple children taking 20+ swings per hole. I'm all for kids playing and having fun, but the rangers should have discussed pace of play with the adults in the group. We left after 9 holes, complete waste of time and money.

Greens were mostly in bad shape. Standing water in a lot of the traps and other places. Lots of areas under repair. Course for sure needs work but if you want to go out and play a fast round with little notice this course would be a good choice.

This course was in very bad conditions. The worst hard packed bunkers with no sand, dead spots on most greens, and dried out dead fairways hitting off dirt. Nice staff, nice layout. Its a shame this course has gotten worse over the years.

I played this corset twilight twice and I got 16 holes in one time and 13 or 14 holes in another time.

The course is decently maintained, but because it’s Bermuda grass there are rough spots/hard spots in the fairways and dirt patches. Most difficult thing about this course is, if you haven’t played the beginning of the holes are very poorly marked and you can find yourself driving the wrong way easily.

Golf staff wasn’t the friendliest, seemed a little pretentious for a course like this to be honest.

Overall, it’s a challenging course if you play from the blues, not sure about the whites. They don’t have black teeth.

Greens are unrelated and can be challenging.

Booked the pine course and they made us play both back nines instead. The palm back nice was pretty much unplayable. Greens were rotted away bunkers we filled with water. For the price of the round it was pretty sad. Then after the round I went into ask if they would do anything about it and why the moved us to both backs when they knew the course was in such rough shape. They responded “ the members refused to play so we had to move you guys to the back”. Take that as you wish.

The course layout and greens were good. The fairways & cart paths were terrible. The bunkers had no sand and were full of water and we played at 3pm so they didn’t just water.

Range and club house is in great shape, it was our first and last time playing the course. When I booked the tee time it was for the pine course then to realize that when we showed up we are being told to play both back nines because the members refuse to play them since they are in such rough shape. No discount or refund was given. Bunkers were all filled with water 80% of the fairways were died up. I’ve never played on rougher dried out greens. Way over priced for the experience. You can find a lot cheaper courses that are in better shape.

Simply not worth the money. Course is in really rough shape. Sad to see, used to be one of my favorite layouts in the valley but has just been mismanaged for too long. Love the practice area though
