WildHawk Golf Club is a challenging championship layout that is one of Sacramento's most popular public courses. The verdant landscape is dotted with scenic water features, including a cascading waterfall. Water is naturally a prominent presence but the unique shape and positioning of the bunkers also makes the course stand out from other public tracks. The golf course boasts some of the area's best greens as well. The layout has a diverse mix of challenging holes and player friendly elements such as the wide-open fairways on the longer par 4s and par 5s, which makes the golf course accommodating for a range of skill levels. It still requires a fair amount of accuracy though since it can get tight in some spots. WildHawk Golf Club can also be more difficult depending on the wind

First Time Playing

Short but challenging course

My first time playing this course and right after a decent amount of rain. Fairways and greens were in great shape and only a few soft spots in the rough areas. I played in the late afternoon and pace of play was fine but I could see it getting a little stacked up in the morning/ early afternoon. Tee boxes could use more tending to but a course worth while of playing.

Somebody should be fired

The T boxes were bad / uneven & beat up, what was wrong was that they put the tees where they were in the worse condition to hit from

Great Value

This course is always in great condition! I discovered Wild Hawk only a few months ago and now it’s my go to course. Really in great shape; however, the greens were recently aerated and sanded so ssslllooowww but that’s to be expected. Never a disappointment. Pro shop and restaurant/bar staff is always friendly and accommodating. We’ll done!

First Time Playing

Good Pace of Play

The starter did a great job of keeping track of the start times. Throughout the course, there are clocks posted to make sure everyone is keeping up with the pace of play. The scenery was beautiful and the course was in good condition. The greens were recently plugged, so they weren’t in perfect condition.

Wildhawk

Course was in good condition. Play was a bit slow but not too bad for a weekend. Their course marshal was a bit annoying. Asked his to basically hit into the group ahead of us, told us to hit when a group From another hole was in our fairway. All this and we were about a hole ahead of the group behind us. He could do a much better job. Otherwise a good day.

Used to be a nice course.

This place gets worse year by year, today I played the last round I’m going to play at this place this season maybe next year they will have their act together.

Pros: Fairly wide open and some decently laid out holes.

Cons: Tee boxes are terrible, zero sand in bunkers looks more like a baseball field, terrible drainage the ground is so inconsistent it goes from rock hard dirt to mud bogs especially in the 80 and in on most holes. Zero course beverage service, no menu at #9 tee box. Marshall is useless, we had a fivesome limping along in front all day. Tee times severely compressed think they are 7 min apart. WILDHAWK MANAGEMENT GET IT TOGETHER AND FIGURE YOUR IRRIGATION & DRAINAGE OUT ASAP YOU COURSE CONDITIONS ARE HORRIBLE.

Rain

After an early morning rain, course was in very good condition. Greens and fairways were in good shape. If tee boxes were maintained and LEVELED, this could be amazing place.

Course in very good condition

Always enjoy playing Wildhawk. Course is in very good condition other than tee boxes which are a bit uneven and have quite a few bare spots. Saw maintenance filling divot holes in the fairway. Staff is always friendly; you can find reasonable deals, and the pace is usually pretty good. The course is on the easier side If you’re looking for a place to play to work on your golf game without having to worry about tons of hazards.
