Florida Layout in Hawaii

Flat course, reminded me of a nice Florida layout with plenty of water (not all in play). Greens were in great condition. Played early as a 2 ball, got around quickly.

Lots of Carries

Fun course. lots of carries - not able to hit driver on some par 5s. Greens were true. Need to hit the ball fairly straight or bring extras! Course is on the wet side of the mountain, be prepared for damp conditions.

Garbage Greens

Shag carpets are better than some of the greens on this track. We played on a Monday morning and I counted two 5-balls ahead of my group. I had to skip 3 holes so I could finish on time. Marshal was seen but he didn't seem to care about the pace. Disappointing.

Winter Rules

Bear's Best is often a "go to" course for me in Vegas. You know that it is managed well and the course will be maintained well. I played late winter and the course had dormant rough and the driving range was mats only. In general the course was in good shape for this time of the year, but the greens looked bad (awful too strong a word). However, the greens rolled fairly quickly with minimal bumps. I got a "hot" deal, so the value ($80) was great. I was scheduled to play at noon, but got paired up with two singles and went out early. I would go back if I got another good rate.

Resort course with ammenities

Played 1/9/13. Nice track, typical resort course with wide fairways that speeds up play. Great practice facility. Greens were firm with decent speed. For someone coming from NY escaping the cold, this was a great course to get my first round of the trip in - the golfnow price was a big discount. There are other courses that are better value. I believe the price tag keeps play down which means pace is faster. I was sent out as a single but decide to join a husband/wife twosome and we still played under 4 hours. The Father Son Challenge was played there in December.

Good Warm-up Track

Course is fairly wide open. No water on the North Course. Greens were slick and pins were placed in very tricky spots. Went off as a two ball (first off) - played in just about 3 hours. We paid a discounted rate which made it well worth the money esp. that time of year.
