The rains have greatly improved this track…
Hopefully the greens will improve once they punch next week. Looking forward to it.

Unexpected condition.
In town visiting my son I booked a round at the Wilson course. I read the reviews after making my tee time and almost canceled the reservation. Was glad I chose to go ahead and play the course. The fairways were green and the greens were in great shape. Enjoyed visiting the staff who were as friendly as many other courses I have played before. I will play the course again when I’m in LA. Next time I hope to play the Hardin course.

Not worth it. Worst course conditions
I know this is going to sound controversial, but the course was one of the worst I've ever played at condition wise. It was a terrible course. Patches of missing grass on the fairways, the course was very lumpy. It felt like I was playing on ski moguls. It's just not worth the time and investment to play here. Had a terrible time. There are many other courses in better condition in the area.

This course needs better Management
The majority of the players do not repair their
divots, consequently, the putting greens are often in very bad shape.
I have also seen players with their pet dogs on their golf carts, which should not be allowed in any case.
Especially because Griffith Park has coyotes roaming around and small pet dogs are an inviting target on Wilson Golf Course.
