I live about a 30 minute drive from Fresno and have played Pheasant Run at least 50 times. The greens are almost always in great condition and the course in general is above average. Do your homework on pricing and you can get a low cost round. The 18th hole par 5 gives you a risk/reward shot depending on your drive. Good food as well... It is definitely worth playing!

Course layout is challenging but fair. Lots of water. The clubhouse/ restaurant/bar was employees were friendly and professional. I will not only recommend the course, but will be back to play soon.

Pleasant place to play. The golf shop staff is very friendly. The course is challenging because of the length of the par 4's. The fairways are very tight and it appears that the locals don't use the golf paths and drive around the greens which if you are off a little on a shot it makes you have to chip off dirt.

Greens showed no signs of the recent work and were rolling true and fast.

Most of the course is starting to show signs of green breaking out but is still in the patchy phase of spring emergence.

Great Track but conditions have slid south

Pheasant Run is one of my favorite courses in the valley. Unfortunately the conditions are below standard right now.

Pheasant run is a fun track full of water hazards. 13 of the holes have water in play(ish) with an island green on the par 5 18th. The greens had recently been sanded (maybe a couple weeks ago). No big deal. If you want excellent conditions then you have to be willing to deal with some maintenance from time to time. The greens are usually the strong point of the course. They are fairly large and most are two tiered but nothing too drastic. they are known to roll smooth and fast.

Pheasant Run is all about taking advantage of the Par 3's & 5's and surviving the par 4's which are all very long.

Sand traps are Much Much improved. I was in 4 bunkers today and all were excellent to play out of. Fairways were a dissapointment. A mix of thin; dormant, dead, and dirt. Worst I've ever seen here.

Tee boxes were below average but tolerable. Rough is non existent. After the fairway you get hard backed dirt with a few trees here and there. Usually pretty easy to play out of and it makes the driving distance look good when you get an extra 40+ yards of roll. Like my 298 yd drive. (Carry 230 & roll 68) Lol.

Hopefully they get the conditions under control soon to make this a solid go to track when in the valley or traveling up/down Hwy 99

Lots of Water

The course in in very good shape. Like many of the courses in the Valley, I think they turned off the sprinklers some time ago. The ground is hard and the ball travels a long distance.

Very much enjoyed the round and would highly recommend the course to anyone.,
