Royal St. Augustine Golf and Country Club

Greens were a little rough from spring growth. It was a windy day so course was a little difficult on long shots. Overall it was enjoyable.

You could hit the middle of the fairway and have your ball roll off to one side or the other. Too mogully.

The coarse layout was good but it is not kept well. The green are very slow and the driving range is the worst I’ve ever seen, just sand. People were friendly but this coarse needs some serious TLC.

I play here at minimum 1 morning a week, quick 18 to get some swings in. Typically as a single or group of 2. The starter has now 3 times made me go start on 10 instead of just letting me play my tee time. I’m not bothered by the average wait time on holes especially as a solo I get ill be faster. But when they make me start on 10 and then loop to 1 by the time I get back to 1 they are trying to squeeze me in between actual tee times and it ends up being a waste of time and backing up the entire front 9. I book through golf now so if I leave I basically paid for 18 for no reason cuz I can’t rain check it. 3 times now it’s happened.

Course was a nice layout. Due to a fire near 14th tee box had to skip that hole. Played the blue tees which required considerable carry on a couple holes. Due to the time of year had some bad roll outs with no rough. Was fun and challenging.

This course you must play very strategically.

Many holes should be played to a specific point to avoid hazards and score well.

I would gave 3 1/2 Star Overall Rating if able to.

Course is much better than it has been for the last couple of years. They have installed sod in some places that should be good when weather warms. Is all dormant at this time. Members have always been a bit rude in the [past but seems to be better now.

As a former golf course superintendent I am usually more critical. Having said that, knowing the course prior to the latest upgrade the course conditions are better but there is plenty of improvement that is needed. While the greens were in great shape for February the bare spots outside the collars need to be addressed. Green complexes with lush grass around them really strengthen the look and playability of a hole.

There are several while tee complexes that need upgrading. Overall, it looks like the course is heading in the right direction. Keep it up!

Played RSA a few years ago and it was not in good shape at all. Recently read positive reviews and decided to give it another shot.

It was like night and day. The course is in very good condition and well on its way to being great. They have done a fantastic job bringing it back to playable conditions. All aspects were enjoyable.

Fun beginner course. They always price it fair to value. Really trying to make some changes to help people play there more. Staff is friendly and layout is fun and challenging. I always enjoy playing here.
