Lack of Ranger on the course

The pace of play for 14 holes was VERY VERY slow. We had a group with 6 people in front of us and two threesomes in front of them. We had to wait at every hole with the group of 6 waiting on the t-box.

The pace was close to 6 hours until a man from the club house came and the flow accelerated, we ended playing in slightly above 5 hours.

The man from the club house indicated that this course did not have a course ranger. That is the problem. The temperature was 115oF and inforcing course management under these kind of heat should be unforced.

Greens were slow but in great condition, fairways at times were over watered and t-boxes often where not flat with the ball either below or above your feet. We payed $55/person with a cart. No ice was provided but could get it at the turn.

If the pace of play is improved it is a course playing for the money with holes a bit long but overall it is a forgiving course and thus you can have fun and take a few chances.

Grumpy Old Men

Won’t say much, it’s all already been said in previous comments. Check in was with the grumpiest and most flustered older guy - complaining about having to get beer for people (because the bar is closed). Course condition was fine all things considered. Round times are fine as long as you get out early in front of the foursomes playing 5+ hour rounds. Don’t worry there’s no Marshall in sight so if that’s your style, this is the place for you.

I play this course because of the mens club. Good range maintained well. The restaurant has a very limited selection. This course maintenance is making some progress to repair itself due to the lack of attention given. With the rising prices in the green fees this course is way over priced for your golf dollar.

Whom ever is managing needs to take a very hard look at what it means to run a quality facility.

Lots of dirt between tees to greens

We showed up 20 minutes early before our tee time and checked in at the desk and the grumpy guy said we need to hurry up and get to the tee box because he had paired us up with a couple. We teed off and the couple playing with us were not good players at all- beginners. They were constantly in the desert looking for their balls and slowed us down to the point of stacking up groups behind us. No Marshall on the course also no beer cart. I am not going back there again as they can’t pay for enough help to make the course worthwhile. Also the grill is closed and only sell hot dogs.

Friendly rough

In most cases, tee shots that miss the fairway can still be found and played easily.

Sunday ay Crooked Tree

First of all I have played this coarse many times maybe 5-10 years ago frequently for about 2 years and it’s not the same. We got to the coarse about 10 minutes early and the club house check in directed us that we need to get to # 1 tee box immediately We used to come early for a delicious breakfast and now the grill is closed indefinitely, The fairways are run down and have a lot of dirt that you have to play on, but the greens were very nice to put on.The golf course doesn’t have any more sand traps as it was probably a maintenance issue along with when you went into a trap they were hard as a rock and most times filled with water from the greens, and you could not use a wedge to get out without sculling it way over the green, this was a modification that I liked but, there is not a beverage cart running any longer and I decided it’s definitely time to scratch this coarse off of my preferred golfing adventures and go play where you feel comfortable. There are many more golf courses that will gladly take way better care of you than this run down property.

Still the best value in the Old Pueblo

Just solid. Green’s on great shape. Fairways nice as well. Decent pricing in the restaurant. Everything for a solid relaxed round. Plus, I left my rangefinder in the cart and they had it the next day! Great service.

Super slow Saturday

Windy and soooo slow..3 groups on every hole. 4 hours to play 13 holes before we called it quits. No sign of a course ranger either. Really wish they kept the sand in the bunkers instead of letting them go. Fun course normally though.

Bring a pillow

Course is in great shape and good bang for your buck but plan on an almost 5 hour round with the geriatric pace of play of 250+ tee times a day
