Lots of Promise

Been playing Persimmon for years and have seen a lot of changes since American Golf sold it. It now has new owners as it was sold again. The previous owners who just sold have down a lot of great things and cleared a bunch of trees to help it dry faster. Greens have been rolling great also. Members are hopeful the new owners will finish a number of projects that were half completed and update the club. It is a great track that is not easy and has so much promise.

Roaming hills will push your game to the limit

I love this course. Although it is extremely challenging. You have to be able to place your shot, or you may bounce out of bounds. The challenges on each hole, never gets old. If you want to improve your game, work on difficult shots, try this course. I have to say, every time I play here I improve my game. The fairways have lots of good challenges, bunkers, water, dog legs, hills. The views are awesome. This course is excellent, but it will humble you as well. Every green plays different, slow or fast. I personally enjoy this, as it keeps me on my toes and keeps me thinking. After all golf is a thinkers game.

Nice Track outside of Portland

I played Persimmon first, many years ago when it was public. Last weekend I played it in peak conditions and the course was fun and challenging.

The greens here are lightning quick. Almost unfairly fast as putts and chips can roll completely off the green a lot.

The course overall is in good shape, the clubhouse and staff are great, wonderful views of Mt. Hood as well.

Make sure you get a cart, the course is not walkable. Bring plenty of balls too, it's tight and difficult at times.
