Mill Valley Golf Course
Played On 01/20/2016Could be so much better
This could be a real gem, but since the draught, the fairways are unkempt and not taken care of, the greens suffer from a disease that makes putting a chore, and the joy this course usually brings has dissipated recently. I will keep giving it a try now and then, but as long as the course is not maintained, no point to go often.
Peacock Gap Golf Club
Played On 01/02/2015Ridiculously crowded
I've been playing this course a few times this winter and have to say that it is overly crowded. I gave up after 9 holes as it took 2 hours 45 minutes as there were too many players...at one hole three groups were waiting at the tee off! We were told that's because the conditions are not great...but they nevertheless send foursomes out every 9 minutes...that means everyone has to hit the ball every thirty seconds perfectly to finish in 9 minutes (4 players have 8 minutes per hole and need to play perfect pars (4x4 hits = 16 hits...each hit 30 seconds, so 8 minutes...and then one minute to move to the next hole...that's just not possible, sorry!).
Very disappointed about the lack of speed on this course and the overcrowding all day long.
Sorry to hear that you were unable to finish the round due to the pace of play. Coming out of the storms in December, it takes a while to be able to cut the rough. This likely slowed players down due to the added time looking for balls. Couple that with a full tee sheet and you have a recipe for slower than normal rounds. We strive to keep the pace at 4 hours and 20 minutes on weekends, giving players approximately 15 minutes per hole. I encourage you to visit us again as we consider our pace of play to be among the fastest in the county under normal circumstances. Happy New Year and Happy Golfing.
Sincerely,
