Played multiple times this summer

I have played this course multiple times this summer and it has not once disappointed me. Today was a bit windy which made it more interesting. I still had a great time. The greens still require a firm putt, but once you know that you can score well. The fairways and rough can be a little bit thick or fuzzy at times, so you might not get much roll out.. However, to me it seemed like the ball was teed up so I didn't mind it. I enjoy playing this course. It is in much better shape than some of the other courses in the area.

Need a firm putt.

The course is in overall good condition. The greens require a firm putt as they are a bit slow and do not break as much as you'd think. I did not have to fix many ball marks which told me the greens were compacted which would have made me think they should be fast. I guess they are a bit fuzzy which slows them down. I played from the blues which gives you a couple of 200+ yard par threes especially when they put the flag in the back. When the wind kicks up that makes these much more difficult. There is no beverage cart service so bring your own or buy it at the snack bar. There are water fountains every few holes which is a God send in this heat.

The course is in good condition as it just came out of over-seeding. Tees through greens have shaped up nicely. There were no burnt spots anywhere. For AZ in the summer that is saying a lot. The grass seemed a bit long and the ground a bit soft, but that might be due to them getting the grass to grow back so well. The only thing I found a little odd was the putting surface. They were slow and did not hold a line well. They looked like they should be fast, but they were not. Maybe that is what put me off. Still to get the putts to go in you had to hit them very firmly. If the putt slowed down it would wander randomly. The carts are newer and very comfortable.
