Foxtail Golf Club - South Course
About
There are two championship courses at Foxtail Golf Club, the North and the South. Situated in the heart of wine country, both courses enjoy a lush, scenic landscape and pleasant views of the surrounding countryside. The longer and more difficult North Course was completely redesigned to make it more challenging but the player-friendly South Course has remained a favorite destination of both Sonoma and Marin Counties for its playability. It provides a more beginner-friendly option than the North, but there are still plenty of challenges in store. No water hazards come into play but there are several strategically placed bunkers as well as trees lining the fairways. In addition to the two golf courses, Foxtail also boasts one of the best practice facilities in the North Bay. There is a full driving range available as well as chipping and putting greens.

Very nice course, better than the Southside.
Course is in good shape. I don’t recall any brown dried up areas that seem to be popping up on a lot of courses. Pace of play could have been alittle better.
one new thing
I don't see this covered in a lot of reviews because its not a problem for most golfers, however, I played with my son who tends to hit approach shots long. A lot of these greens have steep drop offs. He would hit balls that hit the green but kept on going and would frequently be 50 yards away with the addition of the hard steep terrain behind and beside the greens add in a few tree branches and he got killed. I had it happen on one shot that I thought landed pin high but kept on going down a hill on the back. Cost me two - maybe three extra shot!
Only good thing about this course is that the green are ok, but everything else is terrible. Way over priced!!!
Slow Play
The oace of plat was so slow I had to quit. 3.5 hours fir 9 holesnis way too long. On topnof that, the cart was filthy. Needless to say, I wont be coming back
Exceptional Course
Beautiful course, staff working hard during COVID, all very helpful and courteous.
Nice Little Suburban Parkland Track
Trekked out here after Tilden was shut down due to fire danger. We were able to book a twilight two-some last minute for a 3:00pm Tee time.
Course was pretty fun, and forgiving for us high handicappers. The only two moderately interesting holes were 3 (short par 3 over water), and 9 (had a water ob, across from a fairway bunker). However the rest of the course was straight step and repeat straight Par 4s. Greens were on the inconsistent and soggy side, and the fairways were patchy, and muddy. Not to mention there were divots galore.
Back 9 we were stuck behind a family of 4 who refused to let us play through, even though they would each take about 8 - 12 shots each to get through a par 4, and we had to stop at 17. It was frustrating, but hey this is totally a family oriented 18, and it was a weekend twilight round. The back 9 was also much more forgettable than the front, 10 is one of the only dog leg lefts on the course, which was a nice change.
Would I could here again? Yes, but I'll probably try my hand at the newer North Course, and perhaps get an earlier start.
Would I recommend this course to a friend? Yes, but probably if they have children, or beginner golfers who wanna try their hand at a full 18.
