Oakmont West Summer Round

Overall a very challenging golf course. I played from the white tees. It was plenty challenging. If I putted better I would’ve broke 90. The fairway ways could definitely use some better grass - lots of bare spots and had to hit off of hard pan occasionally. All in all though a pleasant round of golf for the money.

Hope they get the course back to what it was

This is the first time I played the course and was sad to see it in the shape it was in. I love Oakmont, it’s a decent layout and the greens were always in good shape, until today. The greens are rough to say the least. They are shaggy, slow and will not hold a line. Putts change direction when they please and it costs you strokes. The fairways are not much better. They are uncut and there is a lot of dry bare patches mixed in with swampy lush areas. The only thing I will say is, the price is right. It’s the best deal when it comes to prices on the weekend but don’t expect great course conditions right now. I hope the course can be sold to a management group that brings it back to what it used to be, we can’t afford to lose another course in our area!!!

This used to be a high-quality course

The greens used to be the pride of the course, they'd boast about them on the website and post the Stimp rating for the greens. Now they greens have gotten mossy, patchy and uneven. They still roll mostly true but this is a far cry from the quality of the course just a few short years ago.

A return

I haven’t played the West course for quite a few years. At one time I was a member, and played quite frequently. It was very interesting coming back to this course after so many years; it has definitely deteriorated to a degree. I thought the greens, were not what they once were. I know Oakmont has gone through a difficult time trying to decide on what they want to do with this beautiful golf track. I am hopeful that the Oakmont group takes on once more the maintenance and the restoration of this beautiful golf course. I still enjoyed myself very much today; and hopeful that once again the sails of golf can be filled with hope.

Very nice course

It was ok, Staff is always friendly. We got stuck behind a slow foursome for about 5 holes until we jumped ahead of them, because they were not going to let us play through. But everything else was very nice and it was clear the rest of the way.

Challenging without being hard

Oakmont WEST has a couple pretty difficult holes, several more that require accuracy off the tee with some local knowledge where to put it, and in all honesty, several that are just plain ol nothing special holes.

Most of the Par 5s call for less than Driver off the tee, as they have water hazards crossing the fairway and/or a dogleg. That isn't everyone's cup of tea, but the 2nd shots are demanding.

The greens are no picnic here, you have to stay below the hole. I like the challenge to accuracy off the tee at Oakmont WEST (I stress West because there's an East course that's an executive track I booked accidentally- Golf Now fixed it for me. Thanks Golf Now!)

This course does wind through a neighborhood, so don't expect much in the way of scenery here, although the Mayacamas are just a bit to the east so there's SOMETHING to look at besides people's homes!

This was my first time to play the course and had some problems as to where to place the ball in the fairways.. The greens was not so good in condition as the ball dribbled in some of the greens during putting.
