Jack's West Coast courses. Challenging

It was over 105 degrees when we played. The greens were actually a little slow, to save the grass. Being Jack's West Coast holes, it was challenging. Very enjoyable and challenging golf. Definitely will play again.

Bring your long game

The card says 6600 yards. Realize there are 5 par threes, so it plays more like 6800-6900. The distance is in the par 4s, so many long approach shots. Course condition was fantastic as is the layout. The staff was very helpful. I would recommend, if you get a good rate. Greens were a little slow due to the heat and them trying to save the grass.

Very disappoinited

I saw different reviews for this course, but decided to play. the weather was very good. the staff was excellent. Teed off at 11:20am. Saw beverage cart once, on 5th hole. the course conditions are very bad. Many types of grass growing, where it was growing. Many bare spots. The greens we okay. No rough and no fairway. had to roll the ball everywhere to find grass. Paid $71 through Golf now and not worth $30. Unless someone tells me the conditions have improved dramatically I would not return.

WINDY

This was a very nice course. The layout is challenging. The day we played it was 3-4 club wind, right off the mountains. Made for some interesting shots. The course condition was fantastic. The greens were quick and in very good shape. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I will definitely play here again. the group in front of us was slow. No marshal to monitor pace and no beverage cart. the only issue is only one restroom per side.

Rough dormant

First and not the last time I play here. the layout is inviting to all levels of player. the course condition was good for January. The only issue was they let the bermuda grass rough go dormant. This did cause some issues when the ball got to the rough, it would roll until it hit the trees or rocks. the staff was very friendly and helpful. It is about a 20 minute drive form Las Vegas, but worth the drive.

Beautiful and tight

This is a fantastic layout and very beautiful setting. You have some room in the fairways, but if you miss, reload. You can go through a few golf balls, but there is plenty of room. I had my phone out taking pictures all day. Challenging for all levels. A real joy to play. The staff was wonderful. The only issue was the beverage cart did not come by until almost 11am when we were on the 17th green. I will definitely play again when in the San Diego area. Not walkable, must ride.

Nice layout needs work

I played this course years ago when owned by John Cook. Had not played for a few years. John Cook sold course and now has bought it back. He needs to put some money in the fairways and greens. The greens were in decent shape. They rolled nicely. Only a few worn spots on a few greens. The fairways are in need of some work. I love the layout. Fair and challenging. As the conditions improve this will once again be a great course and worth the 20 minute drive from Columbus.

Bring your Putter

The course has had a fungus issue and the fairways are bad and being reseeded. the greens are typical Donald Ross, upside down bowl. The greens were not designed for the speed. Easy to three putt due to the speed and hard to see breaks. the staff did say they are closing October 18 and redoing the fairways, due to the fungus.

Aug. Sept is green punching time

I really enjoyed the layout of this course. Designed to replicate St. Andrews, with better weather. The greens had been punched a couple weeks ago, so tough to make putts, especially within 6 feet. The staff was wonderful. the rest of the course is in great shape for Central Florida in September. Will definitely play again, in different time of the year.

Nice Layout, Greens need work

I was pleased with the layout of this course. They are having grass issues throughout the entire course. Many types of grass growing in fairways and greens. A good challenge to all levels of players.

Target greens

The greens had recently been aerated, which was a real issue. The layout is very good. Bring your target irons. the greens are small and require very accurate iron play. Or you must be a very good chipper. The rough is thick. I am sure when the greens come back, it will be a good track to play. the staff was fantastic and the beverage cart was around often. Beware that the National course, you play all 18 holes before coming back to the clubhouse.

Hot Day

This course is always fun. Playing replica holes of British Open roda is enjoyable. In July you expect the temp to be over 100 degrees, which it was. The greens need some work. The course is in very good shape for the heat. The staff is absolutley fantastic. Was disappointed that the beverage cart quit around 4pm. I would definitely play here again

Disappointed in DIsney and Palmer Golf

I have always wanted to play here, since the PGA did until 2012. I was disappointed in the conditions of the course for the price paid. The fairways were okay. No rough at all and the greens had a lot of patch work done on them. For the money I would look at other courses in the area. I had played Osprey and Palms before and was very happy. Disappointed in this course, especially since it is run by Palmer Golf.

Well worth the drive

The course is about 1 hour from Disney World, but worth the drive. Be careful with your GPS, since it will send you on the turnpike and the exit is a SunPass only one (no cash and no attendant - you must have a Florida SunPass). There is a fine for using this exit without one. The course was in good shape. Challenging enough for a 10-25 handicap. Even saw a couple alligators. The staff is wonderful. Paired with locals and had a great time.

This is a good course. Played with a member, who explained they have had some water issues, which has caused a few rough spots in the fairways, but not a real issue. Greens were good and decent speed. Smooth. I would recommend and play again.
