Pace of play

A contribution to the pace of play would be matching one's handicap to the Teebox location i.e. white, blue, etc.

Thank you for recommending the course! Players should play the corresponding tees matching their ability at all times. Meanwhile, our staff works hard to accommodate all golfers on the course, despite the level of play.

Not a course for the occasional weekend player!

What you earn on the front 9, is taken away on the back 9 with its elevation changes, tight fairways, trees and lots of bunkers.

A Links course

Metro offers a challenge because there's typically a very light and comfortable breeze off the San Francisco/Oakland Bay where the courses is located .
The back 9 is rough with long par 5s and water hazards.

An enjoyable play for golfers of all skill levels.

A comfortable challenge

A comfortable challenge:

If you've ever played Hiddenbrooke which is located in the same area then you have a very good understanding of what this course offers in terms of challenges vistas and views.

Lincoln park. SF Calif

Great Ocean and Golden Gate Bridge views.
Real bad and unkept greens.
Great for date golf but not for the serious golfer.

Horrible greens

The poor condition of the greens rob a serious golfers
of their top performance. The poor greens will had
5-8+ strokes to your score.
