Horrid pace of play

With Tee times 7 minutes apart the first tee gets jammed pack with as many as 4 groups waiting to tee off. They allow 5 homes which id fine but shouldn't have 4 of them walking with one cart. Waited on every hole and a over 5 hour round on a Monday is ridicules.

Pace of Play and Tee Time Coordination

Came here on a Saturday, noon tee time. Checked in 30 minutes before my tee time to only to hear that it was delayed 15 minutes but in reality it was delayed 30 minutes. Random singles and people off the waiting list were called to tee off when clearly the people that has reserved tee times were waiting. This lead to 5 groups stuck on all the par3s. Played til sunset at 7 only to finished 16 holes in 6 hours. No marshalls, no ambassador, no starters. Please control your tee times and walk ins santa anita, it was much better than this.

7hr round.

Tee time was for 12:40, teed off at 1:30. Completed 12 holes in 4.5 hrs. Such a shame because the course itself is in good shape. But man this is poorly managed.

Delay

You need a plenty of time to finish this course.
Always need more than 5 hours to finish this course. They don't have a marshall and always have to wait every hole.

Good tee time, weak body!

Went home after 12 holes. I think I caught the flu. Couldn't play anymore. I felt so bad, I started thinking about quitting golf if it was going to feel like this, because my first thought was about all my age-related problems.
After joining up with a nice pair, we headed out for what was a nice front 9.
We started the turn ok with enough daylight to finish the back nine, but then I felt something begin to change. and by 12 I felt I better quit and go home.
p.s. I'm still sick but getting better and have another t-time for next Wednesday. I hope I can make it!

Good tee time, weak body!

Had a tee time good for 18, but , even though I was riding, my legs and back started hurting so much, I had to quit after 13.
better luck next time.
ps: had to keep waiting our turn for tee boxes for 3-4 groups queued up. Oh well, Sometimes other golfers want to play too.

with daylight hours winter-short I called pro shot and spoke to Joshua about finding me a earlier time from my reservation. He was able to move my teetime back 1 hr. which allowed me to get in 18. Thanks, Santa Anita.
