I've played there many times and have always enjoyed the course, this time was no exception.
However, on the 1st tee, the starter on the tee has no business being there.
I had a 1128 tee time, course was full , all foursomes going out. He sent 3 ladies off at 1120 and when it came to my 1128 tee time there was 5 people with that group, obviously no fivesomes allowed. I paid extra for a solo cart as well. It was obviously apparent that there was 4 men in my group and one of them belonged in the 1120 group with there wives.
The starter told one of the men to get in my cart and another on to take his cart and join the 1120 group.
I told him I paid for a solo cart and he told me "That's life" Of course I told the gentleman in my group I had a reason for paying gor a solo cart and not to put bag on it, teed off and went onto play. This made it extremely awkward for a bit with those guys, even though they more than likely knew what was going on. A starters job is to send people out ...IN ORDER of their tee time, either this man can't read, or he was hooked up ($) for letting these guys play together, either way it made for an uncomfortable round. Did I mention it was 1122 not 1128 when 1st guy for the 1128 tee time teed off, and no tee time announcment was made. Honestly, the players would have done a better job getting the groups off if he just wasn't there. This is unacceptable on a busy course during desert golf season !

My brother lives in Palm Desert, and I ve played many courses there.
PDCC is a nice course, its layout is nestled in a neighborhood, but the fairways are not too narrow. Some slightly elevated greens, but all in all a fairly flat and forgiving course.
Many of the courses I play out in the desert are a bit "tricked up" , and they are fun , but sometimes you just want to play a nice old track that wont beat you up, this is the place !
Keep your head down and follow through ;)
