only 9 holes open

Front nine closed for aerating the greens so we had to play the back 9 twice. Greens were heavily sanded and very slow because of all the sand. It appeared that the sand was not swept off the green after it was applied.

Good course with lots of different hole types

there are lots of different hole lengths and shapes so you get to do many things during a round. There is always some wind in this area so a few holes tend to be more challenging if you are going into the wind.

Good local executive course

A lot of executive courses are so short that you only need a few clubs but this one has some longer holes that demand some larger clubs unless you are a long hitter. The rough is mowed a little longer on this course than on the Valley of the Moon course that makes landing you ball in the fairway more impostant.

great local course

This course has length and elevation changes that makes it a challenge especially on the uphill par 5. Maintenance is good and the layout of the course is good.

Nice course and a real challenge if the wind is blowing

Course is associated with Travis Air Force Base and is well laid out. Several challenging holes, and is basically a flat course so very good for people who have some limitations on their ability to climb hills.

Course in great shape one day after rain

this course is mostly flat but makes up for that by the layout that makes you think about your shots.

Best of the two foxtail courses

The north course has more maintenance and is more challenging than the south course. The bunkers in the middle of the fairways are not maintained but the traps around the greens are maintained and useable.

Tough executive course

Course is a tough executive course and made tougher because the fairways grass is kept longer than normal fairway length so you have to look hard to find your ball and work harder to get the regular distance on your second shot.

Good local course

Generally the course was in good shape, rough needed to be mowed as it was hard to find a ball in the rough unless you were right over it. Traps not ready for play yet as they have had no maintenance for months. New company running the courses are working hard to make things right.
