cart path??

the course was 90 degrees, But the most surprising thing was they actually paved cart path ..it was just a band-aid job that I think will be in need of repair in a cpl. years..BUT having it paved was a nice perk.. NOW if they can address Palm tree trimming, not just 1st and 18th hole.. still a nice course

My go to course

have played there pretty regularly .. And I am always impressed how clean it is.. well maintained it is.. the view is unbelievable superstation mountain nearby.. this past w/e we were at the 1st tee getting ready to follow a threesome and on the 1st tee and we could tell it was going to be a long day as they were taking multiple shots just to get started. The starter who have seen us play there for quite a while took pity on us and had us start on #10.. that made the day so enjoyable.. will continue to refer that place to all my friends ..Very friendly staff..

pin placement.. issue

i have played about 10 rounds at this course and I find it one of the best course for the price(extremely affordable).. I am pleasantly surprised at seeing on the course marshal, you normally see them at upper end courses.. greens are true.. but who ever place the pins needs to some training.. some pins were place on edge of slope making it impossible to make 2 - 3 putts. also think about ROLLING to smooth out area around the cups..

Fantastic course

I have played Long Bow a few times but his past w/e was incredible .. I played from the tips..(probably should have move up one as I had a number of 1 put pars) Course EXCELLANT condition ..GREENS nice and consistent.. Since we were still on cart path and most golfers do not fill their divot's on the fairway(I tried) ran out of mix by 2nd hole..they should put more RE-fill station on the course.. other than that will definitely look out for HOT DEALS for this course..

winter play

For public course very nice.. condition perfect as were the greens..
fairway good condition food at steakhouse great.. Enjoyed the Sunday buffet..
Only negative are the palm trees could have been trimmed slight breeze brought some big palm crashing down ..can be dangerous ..Also they should invest in cart path maintenance.. definitely go back again.. Note: they have GAS carts be nice for electric. they do not have facilities for electric carts

1st TIME

This course is "as advertised".. Layout was very forgiving as I could not keep the ball in the fairway, but it allows you to recover and get on in regulation.. Condition of course is ABOVE average and would recommend it highly. Only 1 real delay (17th) but pace of play was good.. Did have a marshal which you do not see on a public course..(NICE).. Note: NO DRESS CODE.. also recommend above average

Fantatsic

I live in Las Sendas and of ALL the courses that I have played(Calif. and AZ.) I can honestly state this is the most challenging course I've played.. If you play this course on a regular basis.. You will find all others much easier to play as Las Sendas make you think and plan on every shot..
PS: the food is second to no one.. a little high on price but quality is GREAT

worth the drive

Greens ran true on every hole.. nice layout.. Bermuda was dorment..may have to come out in the summer time to appreciate it.. Only draw back is gas powered carts (loud especially during back swing,,).. Pls. invest in CLUB CAR even the old ones have a better ride than a new EZGO..
