Johnny Miller forgot
to design a course for the average player. If you can't break 80 on your home course, you are looking at shooting in the 90s here.. Its kind of a running joke - "How hard can I make this course? Let's see, I can bury an elephant on this green, two zebras under that one, take away all the safe outs where greens are next to water or barancas. Force people to layup on par fours. Require a 190 yard uphill tee shot to a steep, tiered, trap-bracketed par 3 green FROM THE WHITES.
Yeah. It's like that. I and I really like it. If you like to drive the ball, this is your course. If you can't drive the ball, stay away.
I wish they weren't hurting for money. The sand traps really need some attention. They used to have a machine that groomed the traps. No more...thats for sure. The greens were in nice shape, true, and slick, for the most part. Several have been infected with fungus. Fairways are very nice.
Good round trying better driving
The course was good first time had to wait for some fuddy duddys they finally let me play threw. Had some tremendous shots in fact my straightest longest drive ever. Had some magnificent 58 degree chip shots right next to the pin. My 3 wood was a laser with much length and accuracy. In fact it looked almost like a pro was shooting it. Had some real good reads on the green undulation shots. I am happy lost more balls than I like to trying a little more power on the drive. and trying different clubs than I usually would use just to test my length. I shot a 78 . 39 on the front 9 and 39 on the back at least I was consistant
Good course. Horrible bunkers
I love this course and play it frequently. The one draw back is the sand bunkers are in serious need of repair. The pro shop need to start telling people to treat them as grounds under repair. Pace of play is bad. Many 4-5 person groups and old people. If you are going to play bring a lot of beers because you will be waiting.
Open front,narrow back
Group in front of us played very slow and was more interested in finding balls.Sand traps in poor condition.Other then that experience was enjoyable.Staff was excellent
Good shot...
The course is in great shape with amazing greens.
I would play again.
Great course
This was a very challenging course and we really enjoyed ourselves. I look forward to coming out here and playing this course again.
Tournament held us up
We did not realise that a tournament was going on in the morning we booked. We started on time...but were soon backed up by an extremely slow tournament ahead of us... five and a half hours to play 18... there were often three groups waiting at the t-box.
I would play again, but think with the delays we encountered the price was way too high....
Sand traps under repair
Eagle Rudge Golf Course is located in the beautiful hills above Gilroy, Ca. Been on my bucket list for awhile. We were informed upon our arrival that the sand traps were under repair and that we could either hit from the bunkers or drop the ball on the side of the trap no closer to the hole. That was a gift for us since we were playing here for the first time. Fortunately, I only hit into one bunker. The greens were extremely fast with many undulations. Very difficult for a first time player here. Had many lip out, as the pace was extremely important. Very windy in the late afternoon made for some challenging shot selections. All in all was a great experience.
Bunkers unplayable
We should have been informed that the bunkers were unplayable prior to reserving our tee time. We would have selected another course had we known. Very disappointed in the lack of information shared.
Beautiful course but slow play may ruin it
A computer problem, sand traps in bad condition and slow play was not going to stop me from having a great day at this nice golf course. An easy front nine gives you plenty birdie opportunities but the back nine will likely make you give them all up. Greens and fairways are nice so keep your ball in those areas at all times. Rough is 3 feet of grass so forget finding your ball if you land there. Hole 11 is pretty but make sure you don't get lost getting there. Take an extra club for your approach shots to account for wind.
Great course but expected 5 hour plus rounds.
This was the third time my buddy and I played this course in the last 2 months. The course is in great shape with amazing greens, you can teplace the take pride in their fairways and greens. There were some issue with the course the bunker were inconsistent some were filled with super dry soft sand while others ranged from crusty with a lot of rock in them to a wet soggy mess. The it was hit and miss on if the ball washer would have water in them let alone soap. The rate of play was rediculous what should have been a sub 4 hour round was over 5 hours. We were stuck behind a group of 6 who were playing beyond slow and claimed to be held up by the group of 3 ahead of them. The Marshall finally showed up on the 13th hole and after talking to the 2 groups told my buddy and I to just take our time and practice chipping, putting, and maybe play two balls of the tee. Not what you want to hear. If you play here expect a loooong round. If you don't get a deal on the course it's not worth the price tag.
Too slow
We walked off the course after 3 hours and we had only finished 9 holes. They overbooking the tee-times and had zero marshaling to move groups along. Not an enjoyable afternoon.
Great Spot
This course is awesome. I have played this course many times over the past 10 years and it is always in great condition. The pace of play is usually great I have only had an issue a handful of times. My friends and I always check Eagle first before we book anywhere else.
