Wildhawk Golf Club
About
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

Still wet
Unfortunately, this course is very slow to drain. It is still wet even though it has not rained for over a week. It was still wet to where half the holes were still cart path only. Hopefully one more week and it will be back to normal. Otherwise, I like the course. It is mainly wide open with some difficult holes and water on several on them. Overall, usually really good value and easy for me to get to.
Bad conditions
The course is in very bad shape due to recent weather conditions. I would wait until end of spring or summer to play here. Lost three balls in the middle of the fairway due to mud.
Wildhawk
The worst conditions ever on a golf course .it was so muddy every tee shot or green not hit you would lose your ball .To charge Fifty dollars is ridiculous. Would never go back
Bad timing
I played following a rainstorm and the course was sloppy, bordering on unplayable. Greens were in great shape, the rest of the course had serious drainage issues...every fairway shot plugged deep..balls in the rough were mostly impossible to find given the wet conditions and deep grass. The course should not have been open for play under these conditions.
Wet and Muddy
Like most courses this time of year, it was extremely muddy and wet on most holes. Be patient and make sure you keep an eye on your ball at all times. Holes 11 and 18 are extremely wet. Bring extra towels and your old shoes.
Friendly, respectable staff
I showed up @ 25min. early. Was advised 2 groups in front of me and I was grouped with a deuce. I saw a wide open 1st T and was ready to rock. They let me roll as a single for a 3.5 hr. cart path only round. What a great experience! I know the course well so strategy counts when it's cart path only and was happy to avoid a 5 hr. round! There was a lot of clean up work going on after the 8 inches of rain in 3 weeks but the groundskeepers were cool and respectful. The fairways have thick top dressing so they don't drain well but the greens were primo. This course rates top tier April to October. It's usually very busy and 4.5 hrs. but I was very happy today! All staff members made good decisions to enhance my experience.
Course in good shape for all thr rain
Course in good shape, lush fairways, decent bunkers
Greens were a 9
Love this course. Challenging but fair. The greens were in great shape.
Rainey wet day
Course was in pretty good condition for as much rain the previous days had brought. We have played there many times, and will continue.
Need to control pace of play
Had played here two weeks ago and quit after the fifth hole because we were three groups deep on the next tee box. With a small tournament finishing a little before us, we were assured by management that pace of play would be good. We teed off 20 min after our tee time. It took 45 min to play the first two holes. Then we thought it would get better as it started to spread out. But, then it didn't. No marshals around to encourage groups in front of us to speed up play. One the singles in our foursome left after two holes. The other asked about a refund or rain check...they declined both as he, like us, had booked through golf now. We played 9 holes in 3 hours and then quit as were three deep on the tenth tee box again. Will never play here again on the weekend.
Wildhawk
The course was wet from the rain of a couple days prior. Pace of play was slow, over 5 hours for 18 on this day. Recommend going after 12:30 on a Wednesday due to club play. My biggest complaint of this course is the bunkers. Most of them are dirt or hard sand. But it is a fun course to play and some challenging holes.
Pace
2 fivesomes ahead of us had to wait and 9 holes took 2.5 hours
Great condition
True greens, no cart service on course
perfect weather
Good course,,had to wait due to HOT Deal tee time tho,,with the first hole open for 45 minutes
If you ask and there's no grouping issue, they will let you roll. Otherwise, it's just tough luck.
Great layout
Always enjoy this course. Great condition
Good Course for All Skill Levels
This course is friendly to women and juniors, but still can be interesting to advanced golfers. I can play a round with my husband and 17 year old, and we can all have fun.
The staff is very nice and respectful to me. What happened?
