Windy at Desert Hills

Typically windy day at this course…lol. Don’t mind that around Yuma but course conditions including first cut of rough is crappy.. Hard to get any type of clean contact. But, if you can keep it in the fairway, not so bad.

Very slow

Try to play early in the morning or late afternoon or you will be waiting to hit every shot. Took almost 5 hours to play 15 holes.

course crowded

The play was a bit slow because ot the number of groups over 4 were slow. Some groups had from 5 to 7 playing. That had a tendency to slow the play quite a bit.

Golf in Yuma

Desert Hills in Yuma provided a great day of golf for my friends and I. We enjoyed the course. It was busy so play was a bit slow but we didn’t mind. First time in Yuma area and was happy to find such a nice course.

5 and half hours to play 18 was crazy. Their loading the course so bad that it takes the price and fun out of it. Will try one more time to determine a one off or the norm.

Good course

It was a good course. However, the pace of play was very slow. There was a marshal out there and he really didn’t do anything.
