Mercer oaks west

Hole 1 green was unplayable, rest of the greens on the coarse were very hairy. I guess they are letting them grow back after aeration done on 8/12. No warning when booking and charged full price. Disappointing that the coarse looked that bad, typically a nice track. Understaffed at the turn, couldn’t get a drink. Cart girls were around enough to make up for it. Overpriced for the conditions

Greens were aerated, bumpy and slow.

Get the greens into better condition.

Clean them up, cut them and roll them.

Course is fun layout. Very enjoyable course several challenging holes.

Greens had just been aerated were sandy and very hard to put on.

A few tee boxes were chewed up.

Overall a positive experience

Love these courses, but...

I have played both of these courses for many years. Love them both.

However, yesterday was a surprise. Aerified tees, greens and fairways. No notice when i booked that these were the conditions. Mercer must be the first course in the area aerifying. no one else is for several weeks. Some of the tee boxes were burned out, couldn't even get a tee in the ground.

I'm not sure if the lack of aerification notification was the fault of Golf Now or the course. Either way, a waste of money. Lesson learned, call the course first.

Great Layout

Played a noon on a Saturday in 4 hours. Beautiful views of a reservoir. Greens were quick and in good shape. Fairways and most tees are also in good shape. A variety of tees for every level of golfer. Overall really good experience.

West Course Needs Some Work

Course needs some work. First hole green is in horrific shape, putting off of dirt in many areas. A handful of the tee boxes need work, some are bare and need grass. Agree fairways seemed burnt out, not sure why since we have had a good amount of rain. The course does get a lot of play and may be the reason why not in the best shape. I have played the course many times and usually in very good shape. Hoping it gets better in the next month or two, so I can play again

Course is not in good shape

I have played Mercer Oaks many times in the past. It was sad to see the condition the course is in. The greens are dried out and browned. The TEEs are so hard that you cannot stick a tee in.

Needs a lot of work.

Mercer Oak West

Late afternoon tee time. Staff always helpful and friendly. Course in great condition. Pace of play was good. The closing holes are very fun and the setting sun gave it an enjoyable perspective.

Good Value, Fair Conditions

First time playing after hearing many good things about MOW. Course layout was very good and visually excellent. Unfortunately, possibly due to the extreme summer heat and rain the greens were less than ideal. i would definitely play again hopefully to experience better greens. Biggest complaint is the rough has way too much overgrown Crabgrass and Clover.
