been a couple of years since playing Copper Canyon course was in excellent shape. Didn't remember that there were so many driver length fairway bunkers. Most of these bunkers had 8-10 foot high lips that left only a sand wedge to get out. 360-380 yard par fours uphill directly into a constant 15-20+ mile hour wind were almost impossible to reach. Reminded me of many Golf courses in Hawaii including the Bermuda greens. overly tough for no real reason.

course was in good shape. Pin placements were difficult, greens were slow, sand traps have no sand in them making them very hard to play. overall average course.

nice day very quiet in afternoon. lots of water on course around sprinklers, otherwise very dry. Not sure perhaps they are working on the water system? if so they have lots of work ahead. Course condition not near as nice as pervious years

I live nearby in a golf community and try to play this course several times per season. Always remember how pretty the course is and difficult it can be if you don't hit the ball straight. My only complaint would be the speed/condition of the greens. They said prior to playing that they were running 13 and they actually seemed faster than that! I managed to hit many GIR's but found myself with 40-50-60'+ putts. Many of these putts rolled 10-15' past the cup if you didn't hit the center of the cup. Carts have speed restrictions on them due to the hills on the course and are very slow. From the clubhouse to the first tee and after 18 seems to take forever. Plan a lot of time to play with slow carts, lots of distance to cover and slow play that doesn't take much to back up. Beautiful course lots of wildlife, rabbits, roadrunners, rattlers, birds, etc. you name it and you will most likely will see it! Got to play this course once. Quintero please make your greens more user friendly and the golf experience would be a 10. I give the course a 10 and the greens a 4-5.

Lots of bunkers with very little sand on top of mostly dirt. Greens are super fast and hard to hold, easy to miss a eight foot putt by 3-4 feet, made for interesting round and highest score of the year. Got easier as the day progressed. Will be back to try again!

course is in excellent shape as are all the SSW courses. Executive course with challenging greens and pin placements. Greens in very good shape but run slow.
