Foxtail Golf Club - South Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Bunkers?
I was disappointed to see the lack of care for the bunkers on this course. There was no mention of the bunkers being under repair.
Bunkers and greens
Course is fine. Bunkers suck. Just play bunkers as GUR. Greens have been better. Too much inconsistency. Need better care. More rolling. Their greens are better when their faster.
Good Course
I enjoy the course and it is in very good condition for a north bay public course. The bunkers are absolutely unplayable, but the greens, fairways, primary rough are all in good shape. Tee boxes are just OK, but you can always find a decent spot to tee off from (level, decent grass). Populated by the usual pigs who don't repair their ball marks or sand their fairway divots. I guess the one benefit of dirt bunkers is I don't have to complain about the folks that don't rake them.
Best maintained public course in the area
I've played all the local 18 hole courses from Santa Rosa to Petaluma and while I am a fan of most, in my opinion Foxtail North is in the best shape. Lush fairways with extremely few dry or wet spots, and greens are very green and run smooth. Not many straight and or flat hole designs. Seven holes have water to consider or creeks to negotiate. Bunkers are placed quite strategically, and there can be some challenging pin placements as almost all greens have slope - just try to stay below the hole. To sum it up there are no trick or gimmicky holes - Foxtail North rewards good shots.
Greens rolling at 10.5 to 11
This was a great course to play. Just two of us played and pace was fine til we ran into a fivesome on the back nine. The last 5 holes was slow but we hung in there as the course was in great shape and the greens were rolling fast and true. The slow play allowed us to hit extra shots as there was no one behind us. Definitely play this course again.
Perfect round
We had no one in front of us until the 11th hole. The greens we were very nice and smooth. The fairways were very well maintained. I have only one complaint that the bunkers had next to no sand. But we were warned at the pro shop that they are repairing them in the next few days. Marshals came by a few times and were very pleasant. I brought water with me and it wasn't a hot day but I didn't notice any water refill stations. Overall a great course and a very accommodating staff.
verngolf
Abusive fivesome in front of us which we reported to marshall who kicked them off. Previous week another misbehaving foursome. Greens are filled with unrepaired ball marks. It is very cheap to play here, we use it as a kind of practice course, but a real dogtrack.
poor conditon for summer
Played in June temperature in 80's constant mud balls in fairways. Green stimp about 5 or 6 most of the bunkers are rock hard adobe. Good layout just clueless greens keeping.
Course is in great condition, except for the bunkers
Overall great conditions. Bunkers are hit and miss. Most are hard adobe, a few are soft. Pace was backed up, but is normally good. Condition wise top 3 in Sonoma county
Good course
I play here all the time. It's a flat course and drains very well in the winter. Greens are usually in good shape. Pace of play is usually ok to a little slow. Just know the bunkers suck bad here. Every time I come here I try to avoid the bunkers. If you go in them it can ruin your round. Almost like hitting off concrete with clay. Not really sure why they haven't done anything with them since it's the only bad thing about this course. Just know they suck bad. Other than that I like the course and always come back.
Good for price
Not bad greens in good shape, bunkers little rough.times gets little slow. Paid 21.50 with cart 115 on weekend.
