Tooth 9-hole Course at Orange County National

I’ve been playing on a tooth several times per year since 2015. Recently they have made a ton of great improvements like the tooth course check-in area and re-numbering the holes. They also VERY recently added a few shades areas and benches throughout the course which were much needed.

Honestly the only thing missing on the tooth from being 5*’s all the way around are the greens. If they could get the greens to match what Panther/Crooked typically are, it’d be the best executive course I’ve ever played. But the greens typically roll around a 6-8 and are quite bumpy. I will say they ARE improved from about 2-3 years ago when the greens were almost not putt-able, so I have a lot of faith that they are headed in the right direction as they now seem to have really attempted to take the Tooth to the next level.

For 29$ not bad. Greens are just terrible. Rest of course decent shape. Pace of play good.

Signage is terrible and staff help to find carts terrible. “Just drive over there past the covered front entrance and the pro shop is there”. Nope.

Putting greens are in terrible shape. Full of crab grass. Not a condition I remember about the course.

Nice little course if you want to practice your iron. Great service from the staff at the pro shop

Why a facility! The driving range is off the hook. Conditions for an end of February day were excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only problem is finding the pro shop for the 9 hole course. It’s easily a 1/2 from the parking lot with few if any helpful signage.

GPS get confused because the 9th is the former 1st, and the 2nd is the old 3rd … etc … took awhile to fix it so I had good yardages.

Conditions were excellent. Golfers seem to fix their ball marks, and the green rolled true and fast.

Nowhere else can you get a glimpse of such a prestigious course for so cheep. Amazing staff very helpful and friendly. A little secret... You can play it a second time for just $10!

My son and I were visiting from Nee York and booked a time here so first time playing this course and visiting the facility. In contrast to Long Island where we live this is an amazing Golf Facility overall. We hit a bucket at the range prior to playing. The practice facility is enormous and well appointed . The staff are all knowledgeable and friendly. We were greeted by an older woman who is a teaching pro and she provided a lot of tips about the course and got us a ride from the practice facility to the Tooth course. We decided to walk and carry our bags . They recommend a cart since the course is hilly but it was not necessary. The course condition is excellent and for an executive course it is a great layout that is not long but provides a challenge. The two par 4 are nice . There are three consecutive par threes with water in play . Some of the greens are surprisingly small and well protected by sand bunkers . The stand out holes would be 2 ( par 4 ) 3 ( par 3 ) and 8 ( par 4 ) . This is must try for the all levels of golfers

Cathy was a great starter.

Could use better signage to direct you to the short course pro shop.

Fun course that is wide open, although I find a way to hit the only tree on the course. Took my son and he loved it. A few rolling hills where it's nice and easy but just a tad challenging
