Corica Park - South Course

Playing here as a practice round for an NCGA qualifier coming up in a few weeks.Me & my partner are both just under 8 index and we played the white tees as we think that's the tees the qualifier will be played from...

Only 5770 yards so very short, which made the par 5s reachable in 2 and raised our expectancy of birdie opportunitites!!

I really think Corica should adjust their tees, blue should be whites, black should be blues etc... If you're a 7.5 index and you're only getting 4 shots you know you may be off the wrong tees!!! I understand if the wind picks up which it will, the course can be tricky, but it's mostly wide open so 5770 is very short.Course is in very good condition, greens were a little slower as usual with a very light amoung of top sand, but not enough to make dowhill puts less nervey!! They roll beautifully! Fairways, bunkers, tee boxes all between good and very good.

We got lucky, a beautful Sunday in the high 70's, low 80's, very little wind, pace of play was good, course in great shape, the golf was pretty good too!!

I have played the North and South courses once a week for the past 4-5 weeks. I understand the Alameda Commuters Golf Tournament is coming, but why did the course add so much sand to the greens, even inconsistently? It was like putting in a sand trap in most green areas. For example, on the South Course 10th hole I had a 30ft putt from green front to back pin, and when I hit my ball, my ball created a "sand rooster tail" and finished 12ft short of the hole. I carry a 0.7 index and don't misread greens like that. Had I known the course was adding sand to the greens I would have played somewhere else, what a waste of $95 and my time. I love both courses and drive 40+ miles from home to play them, my biggest complaint is that a high % of your golf patrons have no idea how to replace their ball marks, or rake traps. The proshop needs to reminder each player, if you ball hits the green from more that 20 yrds away, you should be looking for your ball mark, THEN FIX IT.

Overall I really liked this course. It was in great shape and played fairly. Greens were pretty quick. Definitely was a little slow in terms of pace of play and some of the holes were a little tightly placed together which is why I gave it a 4 instead of 5.

The round would have been better but it took 5 hours and 10 minutes to play, people did not really seem to keep pace with the group in front of them. My group and myself walked the course, and we were waiting on every single shot. Other than that great course and I cannot wait to comeback to play the north course

Due to summer heat there were some poor conditions met. But that’s with most public courses lately. In fact I found this place better than Oakhurst country club (private) the rolling fairways and the extremely uneven greens make this course challenging.

First time playing the South Course after the redesign, and it was great. Fairways are nice and open while still being a challenge. Greens are fast but at least they are well maintained. Will definitely be back to play again and also try the North Course.

Well maintained greens, but the fairways and grass everywhere suffers from CA summer. Course is interesting enough; it’s not hard to get to and/or get near the greens, but every single green is sloped in multiple directions, and they are extremely fast. It’s effectively impossible to attack any six footer; every single putt is a risk mitigation effort. As someone who’s not a plus handicapper, I did not enjoy that.

Enjoyed playing at Corica South for my first time. Fantastic conditions with few obstacles for a beautiful outing.
