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

Great course

The course was awesome. The only issue was that there was a water main break on the 3rd hole that kind of through a wrench in on that part of the course. But other than that it was an all around great experience. The staff was great the food was great and the course was well maintained and beautiful

Worth the Drive

I had heard a lot about the course, but never played it. It's a difficult 30+ mile drive across the Sacramento area, but having the green fee covered by GolfNow Rewards made it worthwhile.
The course is in excellent condition compared to most courses in the area that have struggled due to water restrictions caused by the 4 year drought.
I started out as a single, but due to the slow pace, was joined by a twosome on the 3rd tee. Luckily, they play the course regularly and guided me around what turned out to be some very tricky holes, especially from the tees. However, they also were surprised by the 4+ hour round on a weekday afternoon.

Slow and soggy

Despite installing clocks to encourage a decent pace of play, it took over five hours to complete 18 holes. We are in a drought but the course was grossly overwatered and very soggy. The rough hadn't been cut an people in our group couldn't find balls that barely missed the fairways. The greens were very fast but still bumpy from aerification more than a month ago. Love the course layout but overwatering and snail's pace of play are huge problem.

Easy course terrible pace of play

Where have all the Marshalls gone?! Came on a Monday morning expecting to get s quick game in and was some of the slowest golf I've ever played. People hacking at every hole with no one driving around telling them to keep it moving.

Good value but my goodness the pace is slow. Please do something about it!

Fun course to play, wide open

Had a great time there, course was in good shape. Fairways and bunkers were in excellent shape and the greens were ok but a lil bumpy, however consistent. Fun course with good challenge and fun for all levels as long as you play the right tee boxes.

Awesome greens with decent speed

Have been playing exceptional as of late, and today was no different. Course was in tip top shape and with the drought I'm surprised it is in such good shape. Greens were rolling very true, the lines were for the most part what you saw just had to get the pace right. Pace of play was pretty slow about 5 hrs easily! The only two complaints I have are the pace and price, if you don't get a good deal expect to pay around 42 to 47 on the week day. All in all a great course with great greens.

i haven't been here in a long time. I wish the holes were marked better. The water provided had no ice and the maintenance man was an old grouch! Good place to build your golf score and ego.

Good round

Really nice day at Wildhawk. First time playing the course and it was a pretty good drive for us. We got to the course about an hour early and warmed up. Still had some time to wait till our tee time. The marshall had told us to check back after we warmed up and we would possibly be able to tee off early. This was perfect.
The course was in great condition. Fairways were green but you could tell the drought conditions were taking its toll on the course. The greens were in great shape. They were saturating the greens about half way through the round, which really helped.
Pace of play could have picked up. Course was challenging. Will be back!!!!
