We had a 12:40pm tee time and did not get to tee off until almost 1pm. There were 2 foursomes and 2 twosomes on the tee ahead of us. Needless to say play was slow. We could normally play this 9 holes in 1.5 hours, but instead took it over 2hours from the time we teed off.
The course itself was in poor condition. Geese and goose poop everywhere including the greens. The greens had been punched and sanded some time probably this week so were uneven with some greens having large patches of sand. Several sand traps had water in them and sand was compacted.
Not worth the cost and frustration.

I played Foxtail North for the first time yesterday and enjoyed the course layout. It is in generally good condition. Pace of play on the front 9 was painfully slow. On some holes there were 4 groups at one time. I did not see any marshals on the course to keep it moving. Also, there was a family of 4 - two of them children who the father was teaching how to play which seems inappropriate on this type of course.

Course conditions have markedly improved since I last played there. Grass coverage is better and less crabgrass, but still has a ways to go to get full coverage. Greens are very fast.
Pace of play was very slow, with no Marshall on the course to keep players moving along appropriately.
Staff are very friendly though.

We had a really enjoyable round even though it was a very windy day. The course was in excellent condition, with flagsticks in some challenging positions. We have played this course many times, but always find it an interesting layout with ocean views on most holes, and pathways through the trees which are beautiful.
