Bunkers are concrete mud.

What happened to this place? The bunkers are dead. They are rock-hard, concrete caked-mud like you find at Montebello. And people who’ve played Montebello know what I’m saying. It’s the same bunkers!!! Today, the course was extra extra wet. Too wet. Over-watered and water-logged on some holes. Such as hole 10, down the right side fairway about 150 from the green, that whole stretch about 50 yards is coned-off because it’s totally a wet mud pile. And that’s not the only area like that. There were many others. Dunno what’s happened to this place. It’s the worst I’ve seen it. Half the tee boxes are thrashed and thin and uneven, not cared for. We finished close to 2 o’clock in the afternoon and the back 9 fairways were still soaked, and the bunkers were still totally wet and muddy and more than a few had mud puddles in them still!! Quite shocked to see them this way. The fairways were also too lush, as in, not cut, so they almost play like light rough, and with the moisture underneath it was hard to gauge what the ball would do as the club would dig right down into the soft mud under the ball. If you were just a hair fat the ball would either come well short or would take off low like a rocket knuckle ball flier, and you didn’t have to do anything different to the swing, it’s all because the mud wouldn’t engage the bounce of the iron. Terrible stuff.

The greens were also way too soft, too wet. They rolled mostly decent, but due to thr inconsistency of the moisture, the speed varied greatly. So many ballmarks all around, as you would expect. Giant ballmarks on landing.

The bunkers though….. LA City courses have nicer, playable bunkers than this! And cheaper. It’s not worth it right now to play here.

Great course terribly marked

Love the greens the lay out is great, but trying to get yardage out here is a joke. There are no markers for 200 150 or 100 trying to find a yardage marker on a sprinkler head is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.. how hard is it to out yardage markers ar 200 150 and 100 on the holes?

Nice day at El Do

The greens were the best.. Almost flawless. Great rolls. Some fairways a little thin. Most bunkers could use more sand.
