Sunnyvale Municipal Golf Course

Like many courses in N CA water problems affecting the quaity of the fairways, leaving many uneven and bare spots. The off FW areas are mostly bare ground and more squirrel holes than I have ever seen. The tee areas are not in great shape uneven, some crowned and often either very loose soil or hard packed. greens are OK but slower than I ever seen, not been rolled for a long time but they were in good grass shape.

the greens were fine, but the fairways had a lot of issues, lot of dirt, lot of divot marks.

Over 5 hours run, marshal need to control pace of play.

Sunnyvale is a must play local course .Easy Walking should be expected. Bring those beverages and rash ins. Keep that energy going through the round. Challenging par 3s. 3 risk/ rewards opps. Easy par 5s. Come watch the jets fly over as you shoot par underneath.

I miss the water features and who knows when they’ll be back. Mother Nature will determine that I suppose.

Good fairways and greens even in the dry weather
Fairways were lush and soft, roughs were cut, so finding stray shot balls was easier
Can improve water fountains and toilets along the way as on a hot day need water
COurse was short of trolleys and buggies, so had to buy a trolley
