Sumo Golf Village

We’ve played quite a few Gary Player designed courses (this is a Signature design) and always enjoy them. This track is another good design. Challenging holes and beautiful scenery. Having said that, we were disappointed with our visit. The course conditions were terrible with lots of bare patches in fairways and bad grass in most greens. We were told this was a tough winter, but it’s nearly July. The rough hadn’t Been mowed in a while. You could be 6 inches off the fairway and be in 3” rough or 1’ rough. Lost several balls that weren’t more than a foot off the fairway. Looks like the economy hasn’t been good for this course. Too bad. As the wife said, this would be a great course...somewhere else.

Sumo, once "Bear Paw" is one of those special golf courses: rolling links style on many holes, built on a hill so lots of wind, great views, and challenging but not impossible golf. I love it and stop there every chance I get. GREAT golf for the money.
