Type Public
Par 71
Length 5608 yards
Slope 122
Rating 68.9

DeBell Golf Club in Burbank offers an 18-hole Regulation Course and a nine-hole disc golf course. The Regulation Course has a tight layout with narrow fairways and a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Accuracy is the key to doing well on this golf course but it's not overly punishing. Its risk-reward holes will appeal to low and high handicappers alike. The front nine is fairly challenging but the back nine is where the golf course gets tough. Although DeBell Golf Club is short, only 5,608 yards from the back tees, the blind shots and winding doglegs make it seem much longer than it is. There isn't any water on the golf course but you'll hardly miss its presence with all the other hazards that lurk throughout.

The Bell

The course was in good shape, holes are challenging and fun especially hole 12.

The staff were friendly and nice. You are able to drive your cart to your car. The greens have 3 weeks that they have just been punched so they were on slow side but still role pretty good.

Pace and Closing

Had a Great time fir my first time. However I took advantage of the twilight rate which started out grey! However there was a group in front of us who began to slow down and hit extra balls and one guy in particular putting more than one ball in their threesome. There was no Marshall so this greatly slowed our pace. Eventually it became dark ans we had to stop at the 14th hole.

Additionally there is no lighted signs or headlamps on the carts so I had difficulty finding my way back to the clubhouse. Thankfully I ran into another golfer who knew how to get me back on track

I will definitely be back but will play at an earlier time next time

Course Mgmt Time!

I had a Sunday bag using a 5W as a driver, amd a 4i on long par 3's. The tee boxes weren't terrible, but needed some work. Lined with trees and traps, while it's not super narrow, it's not slice friendly, and you need to plan shots you know you won't miss too much. Kikuyu grass...so it will not roll out very much in the fairway vs other blends. On 100yd pitches, you will get lots of spin....so pay attention to pin placement on the green.

This was my first time here, traveling from Washington. Shot +9 on the front, and +3 on the back. GET A CART!
