Good Bye Golfnow

A few months ago, we purchased a t-time in Florida. I found out later it was cheaper to just reserve a time directly with the course. Upon canceling the time with Golf Now, they gave me a credit. I belong to a Country Club in SoCal, so I don't use Golf Now, but figured sooner or later I would. A couple of months passed and I received a email from GN, stating I had 6 months from cancellation to use the credit, in which was in excess of $250.00. Not only that, it had to be used on "Hot Deals".
Needless to say, we did Morongo Championship course. The earliest time we could get was 12:04. As of right now, I don't believe I'll use Golf Now again!!

What happened

I brought a group of friends here to play the Champions course as I have played this course about 5 or 6 times around 10 years ago. It used to be in far better shape. The bunkers were the worst part, more like a gravel pits. No sand to speak of. In the bunkers. The driving range is in very poor condition. The course has possibly the best layout of any course in the inland empire. So sad it see it being neglected.

Great layout. Tee to green very good. Greens are tough.

We lucked out and had very little wind. This course is a bear in the wind.
This is our go to course for playing a penalizing course. Desert shrub everywhere just a few steps from the fairway. It's not an unfair setup... You just pay for any shot a bit wide. Tough green complexes and impossible sand saves.
Only big complaint are the concrete like and rock filled bunkers. Practice bunker shots off your driveway or concrete patio flooring. Was in 3 bunkers. Easily cost me 2-3 strokes with no chance of up and down (got lucky once where ball in bunker was on top of a rock and I could get a wedge under it).

Pace of play

I've played golf hundreds of times, if not over a thousand and I've never played so slow in my life. We teed off at 1:30 and quit at 5 hours (6:30) on the 16th tee. Wasn't worth it!

Great mountain views, tough course for me

I'm a hacker who shoots about 100. There are dozens of bunkers on this course, and I am a poor sand player. I went in 2 or 3 because of terrible shots, and another 2 or 3 times was a bit unlucky. There are a few blind tee shots that are tricky the first time around the course. Multiple greens have traps on 3 sides, which is tough for a hacker. Most of my tee shots were decent but I picked the wrong day to struggle with the irons and approach shots. Next time I play it, I'll take one LESS club on my approach shots, play short of the green, and try to get up and down from the fairway in front of the green instead of risking the green side traps. Greens were in very good condition but I had a hard time with the speed, and several holes were cut right on a ridge that made it hard to lag close.
One last thing--we drove over from Palm Springs and it was 15 degrees cooler in Beaumont! That surprised me, so be prepared for wind and the temps on the course.

Everything, but the bunkers

The bunkers are horrible, no sand whatsoever. The rest of the course was in very good shape. Greens were super-fast and held for the most part. I had five shots outta the bunkers that cost me 9.

Champs a bit soggy

Courses in nice shape but legends has bridge out on #8 that limits play. Lots of golfers expect slow play

No course management

Man, this was my absolute worst golfing experience to date. It’s a shame because it’s a great course, and I understand legends is getting work done, but they out absolutely no effort into maintaining the pace of play on Champions. My group was a few groups behind a 6 some and even after calling the pro shop, they did nothing to break them up of move them along.

3 HOURS FOR THE FRONT NINE!!!! Ended up skipping several holes just to find a little space to play. Started at 12:30 and didn’t even really finish before dark.

No only that but they had basically had everything closed down at 3pm when we finally made the turn. This really should be a great course but I can’t imagine going back any time soon when they don’t have anyone managing the course. Major shame.

Good Layout. Greens could be better fairways were OK

The Starter, Jeff, was a highlight. Great personality gets you in a good space to start you round. Overall not bad the greens could be better but the cold wind and rain showers did not help. I would play again in nicer weather.

Cheap and worth it

The course layout is pretty nice, but the conditions could be better. There is no one meeting you at the start, no starter nobody other than someone to assign a cart to you. Pace of play was very slow bunkers are without sand. However, the rate is very good for a practice type of round.
