Golf Disappointed Day

Golf course was over sold and very crowded and play was very slow. Had to wait at each tee for 10mins. Only got in 12 hole in 4 hrs. Disappointed!

Nice track, worth the visit.

Check in was seamless and painless.
Nice range amenities, range balls were included with a nice chipping and putting green for a full warm up session.
Indulged at the pub/bar prior to our tee time and it was a nice experience.
Course was in good shape. Greens were receptive but really didn't leave deep pitch marks..They rolled nice but were firm.
Only issue would be the spacing of groups. To have a "slow" foursome followed by 2 twosomes and a threesome and not being abke to "play through" is an issue..Especially with a few ambassadors cruising the course and not enforcing the "slow play faye"group to pick it up or move over...
Oh well, its worth the adventure and I would return its a nice set up...

This course is in perfect condition

Booked a late afternoon tee-time and was fortunate to finish the round in three hours. The starter was kind enough to switch me to start back nine to avoid a four some in front of me. Enjoyed this course layout and perfect conditions. Staffs were super friendly and helpful.

punched greens

The greens were much more even and smoother, faster for this round

HOWEVER, i played a few days prior to this day, and there was a 'notice' on your golfnow site that warned, 'recent greens aeration'
I called pga west, asked when the Greg Norman greens had been punched,
The bloke said 'i don't see that they'll be worked on until JULY'
so i made my reservation and i got chumped
THAT first day i played, was like rolling putts through a battlefield. Slow, sandy and totally anti low scoring condition.
But this is 1 of my favorite courses in coachella valley
Its in immaculate condition NOW 🌝

Thumbs up

Never played here before and would come back. Had a nice breakfast on patio prior warming up. Facilities were solid; nothing spectacular, but had everything we needed very close by. Breakfast was delicious btw. Course was in great shape; I struggled to read greens which isn't typical.

Great value for twilight tee time

Played as 4some at 2:06 on a Saturday. Finished in 4:20 or so, so hard to complain about pace of play. Greens were punched a few weeks ago and sanded recently so putting was a little more difficult but it is that time of year in PS. All in all, would definitely recommend playing if you can find a decent green fee here.
