Palmer course definitely plays tough
Initially was greeted by Denza pulling up to the bag drop then easily checked in with Will inthe Pro shop. A truly Wonderful day, a chamber of commerce postcard example of a day, then met up the others I would play with.
I've been to WildFire B4 and looked 4ward to this, 2day did not dissapoint with the starter also giving a good heads up on the speed ofthe greens and they did roll very nice. Conditions were Excellent N lush throughout, even the bunkering sand played well the 4 or 5 times I got there.
Green undulation is tricky to read but felt they rolled true. Winding this up after just under 4 &1/2 hours I met up with Justin who promptly cleaned up My equipment & is certainly cordial as are all the Folks I encounter at WildFire,
Whenever I mention to My associates from the Phillipines or Canada of a destination that is a must go to place to play, WildFire is certainly an easy place to recommend, THANKS -B Well.
Great round!
Played Wildfire Faldo for the first time. Loved it! Everything was outstanding, the course, the weather, the amenities....all top notch. Staff was friendly and efficient.
The course is amazing....bring your sand wedge! :-)
Kicked my butt
I felt like I needed to invest in some Sahara real estate as there are sooooo many sand bunkers and I visited most of them. Course was pretty good except for the over the top amount of sand bunkers. Probably will never play this course again.
Overseed?
Solid course. Greens were excellent. I don’t think the fairways were over seeded and instead painted green. While this didn’t really harm anything besides turning your ball green, a higher end course should be expected to overseed their fairways!
Great day
We played a 3 some in just over 3 hours. Course was challenging, with fast firm greens, but a dream to putt. Will be back
Spectacular as always
Bring your sand game, hit em straight and set puts on a line. All around great experience.
Brilliant
Great course. Great set up. Makes you think about what club you should use tee to green. Can’t just get a driver out and. Smash it. Great fun
Great course
Had a wonderful time, course was in great shape. The staff was outstanding.
