Encino at Sepulveda Golf Complex

Sure, after the rain you would expect some moisture and there definitely was. Lots of bunkers had puddles, and most of the course was soft and muddy. Greens were slow because of it, and were bumpy as they weren’t rolled. If only they would roll it once a week even, it would be so much better.

POP was 5 hours, not bad for a Saturday.

They had a marshal out!!! We were shocked!!! But it was nice to see that. May it continue.

Course still muddy in spots and a lot of bunkers still had puddles.

Greens had not been cut or rolled so they were really soft and slow. Some of them were really mush.

If only they would use the roller now and again….. make them smoother and roll better. I just don’t understand why they don’t, when they own one in their maintenance yard. Money well spent that is! Sheesh! Typical LA.

Encino still smelled like ash. Even after the rains we just had.

Boy did we need that rain everywhere in LA.

Course was ok. Obviously there are patches that need growing, let’s hope the rain helps, and that we get more rain.

Not sure if we should be out there when the ash smell is still around though.

Great course, definitely coming back to play here again

I love playing here. Great condition for a muni course. The price to play here is a little too much.

Great layout and nice big greens.

The course is good, challenging and fairly long, but the fairways are really bad, like terrible. The bunkers are also not good, mostly dirt and never raked. It’s a great value for the price but I have no idea why they don’t even bother to maintain it, it’s weird there is plenty of money in the budget.

First time playing encino this year

Played it several times in the past

Had one of my better rounds this year 81

so I drive home very happy !

Greens were moist, soft like sponges, and hairy shaggy. Just horrible. Too moist and soft that people’s foot prints just make them so jagged and adds a layer of extra bumps that it’s just impossible. And because some greens are more exposed to the sun than others throughout the day, they are all of different speeds and shabbiness, it’s a joke.

They have a roller machine in their maintenance yard, but they never use it. Way to be so typical of LA City to charge people for stuff to get equipment and then not use it so that their employees can milk it by doing the bare minimum and taking home their checks for half the work they should be doing. Absolutely disgraceful. Why are the greens like this at City courses when their County counterparts do a fine job on theirs????
