Pace of Play

Love Rooster Run but the pace of play is pretty much always slow and I believe it's because the Marshall's are told to send players off every 8 minutes in lieu of the 12 minute requirement. I feel if they changed that, back to 12 minutes between players ~ it would be a delight for everyone.

Golf at Rooster Run

The groundskeepers kept the course in excellent condition and will recommend the course. I wished they had a restaurant that served breakfast or lunch so we could hang out before of after the game!

Boring and slow

I played this course for the first time this morning. It was boring and slow. Despite being pressured to tee it off from an extra 400 yards further back than I usually do by the group we were paired with, I ended up shooting well.

But I didn't have fun. And it was not a fast round. The people I played with treated every putt like it was to win the US open, and squabbled with each other constantly. The marshall came out to hang out with these guys (regulars, I guess) but never said a word about pace even when there were 3 clear holes in front of us on 16 tee on .a Saturday morning.

The course is your classic, built in the 90s "stretches to 7000 yards" wasteland of 60 bunkers and 10 ponds that don't affect good players but give crappy ones fits.

Won't go back.

Three and a half hours

The greens were recently sanded, after nine holes I switched from my sand wedge to my gap wedge for chipping. Should have done it earlier.
40 on the front, 35 on the back.
The tee boxes and fairways are nearly perfect, in a couple of weeks the should be awesome.
5 STARS...

Good course conditions

We were right on time to tee off at 10:52. They do have a starter on the first hole and a course Marshall to help keep the pace of play moving along. The grass driving range is great and the practice green is big and in good condition. Tee boxes, fairways, and bunkers all were in good shape. This is not a big long monster course but it is a challenge. With creeks that cross the fairways on a few holes and tricky greens this is a good test of golf.

Great Local course

Course is one of the best local courses in Sonoma County and is well maintained. It is set up very nice and most of the second shots on the par 4's are around 150 yards.

Nice local course

Good for a comfortable outing and there are a few challenging holes. Not really a ”resort course”, but it makes for a nice round

Greens were Shaggy

So, this isn't the most challenging venue you will ever play, but is a decent track that is exposed to wind. I would say that at this present time the greens are the weakest link. If they mow them down this place would be quite a challenge from above the hole.

NO TROUBLE! !

Such an easy layout, water doesn't come into play, bunkers easy to get out of, fairways roll well, slick greens. Good rates. Sounds too good, to be true? Not if you're looking for a fun, hacker friendly course.

However, if you hook the ball a lot, you might want to stock up on extra balls, beer, and several frustration tablets.
