Great day, course in really good shape

Perfect weather, some fairways are perfect, a few bare places due to low rain season. Greens a a little slow but very consistent. Whats not to love when you shoot one over your age with three long birdies.

Awful conditions.

OK, so the greens were nice, that is the only part of the course that is in any kind of shape. The rest of the course is in desperate need of care. There are huge areas that are dry, without grass, and a lot of places where there is mud, huge areas that are uncut and longer grass than should be expected, they have the front nine as cart path only, even on a few holes that should not be and there are huge areas that you cannot find a place to put your ball without moving it five yards to find a decent lie, ON THE FAIRWAYS, just not a spot with acceptable grass. This is by far the worst I have ever witnessed the conditions of any course within 50 miles of San Jose. I am in the fairways 90 percent of the time and had to move my ball to find grass 80 percent of the time. It just plain SUCKS

Good course with several quirky holes

I have played this course many times and still have the same opinion, it plays tough because of so many deep bunkers and a few quirky holes. hitting a good drive from the Senior tees and still forced to lay up leaving nearly 200 to the hole is at best a poor design, challenging course, never score well there.

Course in very good shape, enjoyed the afternoon.

Course in very good shape, plays long for an old man against the wind for 80% of the holes, or at least it seemed that way......ha

Greens recovered nicely from recent aeration, grounds crew doing a great job.

Aerated greens still fast, hard to get a putt to roll true, will be a couple more weeks before they do.

I play this course when I can get a very discounted price, because it is frankly a short course, they charge to much money and the conditions are not always ideal. This round the greens were NOT good, Aeration took place recently and they are NOT healed well. Also, there are many fairways that have huge bare spots right in the landing areas. It's a shame that it cannot be kept in better shape.

Greems in the best condition ever, however...

I would give this rating 5 stars except there are lots of bare spots on the course. It seems that the groundskeeper just cannot keep the grass growing in many many areas. The Greens however were the best I have ever played them, and I have played there at least 50 times over the last 10 years.

Will play here again

Its been several years since I played San Ramon, the greens were in great shape, the fairways pretty good, but because of drought conditions there are some places that are lacking care. Played at 10 AM, expected the pace to be a little better but some slower players were ahead of our group, we actually got waved thru two threesomes, and we were a foursome.

The greens on this course are suffering

I have played this course numerous times, but not for the last year due to the pandemic.

The greens are full of weeds and slow
They still have the stupid inserts in the cups that allow the ball to come out. They are not following current rules as all other courses have removed this junk.

Until major improvements are made to the greens I personally will NOT play there and will not recommend the course to my friends.

Pasatiempo is undoubtedly a Great Golf Course. If you are not a member, or a guest of a member its cost is outrageous. Yes, fantastic course, but the price is so restrictive It may be my last round there.

Another Great day @ Maui Nui

I have played this course for years and have to say its in the best condition ever. Like most courses they were shut down for a couple of months due to the so called Pandemic. That gave the course a chance to heal, especially the greens. I would give the conditions a straight 5 but the local pigs have been uprooting the wetter areas of the course looking for grubs. Fortunately those wet areas are generally not in play, it just looks bad, but does not play bad. The only real problem is that the restaurant/bar went under due to the pandemic. Hopefully that will be solved soon.

Not what it used to be

I love this golf course, however it is in failing condition and that is just to bad. At the rate of play that has fallen off drastically I am afraid it will go the way of "The Ranch" that was located in San Jose.

The layout is hard and the course is difficult to say the least. There are spots on several greens where zero grass is growing. There has been Nothing done to get the numerous sand bunkers back into shape. They are all declared "out of play" with "ground under repair" signs. I hope my fears are Not justified and that after the fake pandemic goes away they can put some money into the course and get it back to its magnificent self.

x-Country Club is in trouble.

I would venture a guess that 30 years ago this course was very nice. The actual layout is nothing to write home about, but it would have been interesting if not for the lack of grass, instead of weeds in most of the fairways. Its just plain worn down, I expect that within a year it will be maintained properly or its going to be a page out of golf History. The greens are OK, but slow, but everything else is an issue making it difficult to play.

Great course, but bunkers are full of weeds and unplayable.

I have played Eagle Ridge at least 200 times and sad to say the conditions seem to be getting worse every time I visit this once fabulous golf course. The course is NOT getting enough water, the fairways have huge spots where the grass is brown, damaged, worn to the ground and of course not a bunker is in play with the weeds growing in almost every one of them. Those that do not have weeds have NOT been raked by patrons or by the maintenance staff for a couple of months. Kind of pitiful, I hope the course can survive as they do NOT get enough play with the existing conditions. At least the greens are in great shape, that is important for a golf course to survive.

Poor conditions, disappointing compared to previous experience.

The Blackhorse Golf course is a very difficult layout. It was rebuilt about 5 years ago and the designer made many of the greens impossible. Way to many greens are designed so that only a third of the green should ever have a pin placement. In addition the greens were so dry that there was hardly any grass on them, that means when you hit a ball to the middle of a green it can roll backwards off the green and 30 yards down the hill, especially since the fairways are so incredibly dry its difficult to keep the ball on the fairway, and more difficult to hit a perfect shot off the equivalent of hard-pan in the middle of the fairway. This course is in dire need of water. How do you enjoy a course that is so difficult in the first place and conditions make it impossible to score when you hit great shots.

Great course, but bunkers out of play

This is by far one of the toughest courses in the Bay Area, and it is a great challenge. The greens have many levels, making putting very difficult. I would rate it much higher but the sand traps are essentially out of play, weeds growing in them, sometimes a couple of feet high as they cannot afford the $350,000 to get them redone. Its a real shame as this once was the best course in the area, now its NOT.

Pretty boring flat course, only one long hole.

The course is in very good shape, but there is not much there. It is flat, a few of the holes have challenging greens, but it is so short and pretty boring. Not much of a challenge for advanced players.

Great course, but aeriation was a problem

I have not played Bayonet since it was taken over from the Army, this is my first time. The course was in great shape, except the greens had been aerated within the last two weeks and nobody warned us. i probably would have played anyway.. The new rebuild makes the course a little easier since some tree removal and trimming took place.

Good course, Good day!
