Harding at Griffith Park Golf Courses

They have been putting out extra water overnight and in the morning o keep the grass growing in the heat.

But because of that, the grass was extra long everywhere including a lot of the fairways that were basically light rough on most holes. Marry those two together it’s like playing after the rains! So the mowers couldn’t really cut in many areas due to it being too muddy.

They hastily cut the greens but didn’t roll them, so the vertical cut marks were way too lively to be able to make a smooth roll of anything as the ball would skip around a bit too much.

Wet and long grass from the middle of the fairway and some were mud balls. Just a weird way to get a round done in the morning before the heat.

Just depends on what day you go to the course I guess. Today was just bad timing. I’m sure it was better in the afternoon once it dried out a bit, but it’s so darned hot.

Very friendly staffs, good condition to play. Pace of the play is very slow yesterday. Maybe is holiday?

But on the shorter side. Not very challenging for longer hits.

It was great to get back out to Griffith Park and play the Harding. It had been about 20 years. the course was in good condition and the pace of play was adequate. We started off at 6:00 a.m. and finished by 10:00. I really want to play the Wilson next time. As the day progressed the nats/bugs came out, and it became hotter. Other than that, it was great to be out...

Course layout requires some attention to detail when looking for the first and subsequent tee boxes. Greens were in excellent shape and fairways well kept. Fringe and areas around greens had a lot of bumps and otherwise unkept ground in places. Minimal facilities on course even at the turn, including refreshment stand or cart, which was a disappointment. However, ample water fountains abound.

First time playing harding and I like the course more than Wilson. Course was in good condition greens were very good.ace of play was good on the front 9 but slowed on the back 9. Will play again.
