Palms at Marriott's Desert Springs Resort
Played On 12/19/2016Another Day In Paradise
I have played this course at least 15 to 20 times and for a resort course its rarely in bad shape. There were extremely strong winds downing many trees and branches a couple of days before, but the grounds crew were all over it. Great job Marriott. Except for the rude jerks that don't rake the sand traps or repair their ball marks on the greens its always a pleasure to golf here. Pace of play is generally good as well.
Carmel Mountain Ranch Country Club
Played On 10/07/2016Ok for the money
Great rate @ $25, but the greens were punched and heavely sanded. Good change on hole 17
PGA WEST Pete Dye Dunes Course
Played On 05/12/2015Dunes Course
The course was in good shape and I enjoyed my round very much. However ( of course there's a however) on the confirmation it said that there was a GPS on the cart. Well there was not. They have gone to having people use an app on their phone. This I figured out on #8 after talking to a marshal on the course. Then of course my battery was already low and the app sucked the rest of it down in 2 holes. Also the app is hard to read with the glare from the sun. I am older and need reading glasses, but I think that anyone would have a hard time with this app. So my message is BYOGPS or range finder. I got one of the HOT Deals on this round for $25 so that helped to ease the pain.
Bottom line another great day playing golf.
