It's a beautiful and fun to play course. The fairways are relatively wide, but can play tough if the winds are blowing. There are risk/rewards on your drive if you want to set up for a better angle on the approach shot.

The course is a bit rough is parts. The fairway and greens can be patchy and bumpy. The condtions are typical of a muni course. However, if they ever decide to give it a little love and care, Sharp Park can rival any course in Northern California.

It's a hole in a wall facility, in the best way possible. Locals congregate here for the neighborhood driving range. And, the bar & restaurant is steps away from the 2 tier stalls. The "course" is a short chip and putt (40-80 yd). It's a good test for your short game because of the small greens and shruby hills. I hesitate to write this since it's such a great local hidden gem.

Roddy has always been a steady part of my rotation. You can't just bomb away at this course; you have to choose your shots wisely and learn the subtle breaks on the greens. The clubhouse got a much needed upgrade. Also it has a good practice area.

However, for some reason today, the pro shop staff was rude. Usually the service had been good. He acted, at best, as if he couldn't be bothered. Also, parts of the course was pretty beat up by the drought and wild hogs. The bunkers are rock hard. And, It would had been nice if the staff warned us the greens was recently punched and sanded.

good value. Good views. Interesting with the elevation changes.

1st tee and driving range under repairs right now.
