a little rough around the edges

course is in the worst shape I've ever seen it. lots of construction going on, fairways are dry, and the putting greens a little bumpy. In talking with someone who works there, September in to October should be about the time that the course takes shape once again. Still a fun track to play, just don't expect much at this time.

Course was in great condition. Lots of sand traps, so practice up on your bunker shots.....or just don’t hit it in there. F Y I. Plays a little longer than you think. Had a great time.

must play

of all the PGA West courses this year, the Norman course is probably in the best shape of all. With summer winding down, I would definitely recommend heading out to play this course. There were only 2 of us, and we were done in around 3 hours, and that was taking our time.

nice course

although they only had the front 9 open, it's still worth the trip over there. Everyone over there is friendly and eager to help with whatever you need. The only reason I rated it 3 for course conditions is that the greens had been aerated a couple of weeks before and were still pretty bumpy. Other than that, course is beautiful as always.

if you have the chance to play this course, you should do it. fairways, although a little moist from all the rain lately, were great. However, if you are a little off, the rough is DEEP. Keep a good eye on the ball because the rough will eat it up. a very enjoyable round. the greens were faster than what I've been used to lately, but rolled very true. i look forward to coming back and playing the course in the very near future

Although one of the higher green fees around, you should play this course at least once. You will see why. It has a mix of everything. dog legs, wide fairways, and not-so-wide fairways, make for a fun experience. The greens roll true, and some of the hole locations (at least on this day) make for interesting approach shots. It's just a really, really nice course, one that I think you will enjoy, regardless of your ability.

Can't go wrong

this course is always in really good shape. A couple of holes to make you think, a couple where you can let it rip, a couple you need to lay up. The greens are fine and usually roll true. When in doubt on where to play, you can never go wrong playing Desert Springs Marriott.....either course

We actually played the Mountain Course

Once we got to the courses, they gave us the option of playing the Mountain course instead, which we gladly took them up on. If you are deciding between courses to play and the Mountain Course is one of the choices, play it. This is one of the gems of the desert. Beautiful layout, challenging holes, and thinking man's holes. It had been awhile since we played it and we are extremely happy we had a chance to do so.

summer golf

although very, very, hot, you have to expect that in the summer months here. with saying that, course was in great shape tee box to green, however, some of the greens are having a hard time in the heat. Not enough to skip them, but they are being worked on. They did roll true though, and didn't really bother our game at all.

Nice Course

A very enjoyable round. Greens rolled true, fairways were nice, and the rough was just fine. I read reviews that the rough was too high, and I could see some places were like that, but it looked like they mowed it down to where it was playable. All in all, a very nice course for the money. I have nothing negative to say about the course, and look forward to playing it again.

Fun Course

had a really enjoyable round. the greens were outstanding, ball rolled true. I was a single that got put with a twosome and another single, all three nice guys. The only negative was that the round took over 5 hours to play. I'm going to give the course a mulligan, as they had an outing of around 80 golfers go off a half hour before we did. However, my golfing partners said that the scuttlebutt was that the rangers haven't been doing a good enough job of moving players along when there is a backup. However...the course was fun, and in really good shape. I think I used most of my clubs, if not all of them. If you are wondering if you should play this course, go ahead and try it. I don't think you will be disappointed.

A fun track

First time playing this course, and had a lot of fun in doing so. It's not particularly hard, but it's not easy either. The par 4's were not that long, but long enough to give you trouble if you weren't careful. One thing I like to do is hit all my clubs in a round, I can't say I did on this course, but I hit enough of them to be enjoyable. My only criticism is that there wasn't a Marshall out on the course speeding things along. The group in front of us must have been 2 holes behind, which was a little frustrating. I will say though, that it was extremely crowded for a Thursday afternoon, and maybe they just didn't have the personnel to provide one. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. Greens were pristine, and rolled true...but most had varying degrees of difficulty because of pin placement, however, still fun.

a little worn out

paid for 18 holes, only played 11. Pace of play slowed down tremendously. However, the front nine layout is not very good. Holes 6,7,8,9 are up the hill, down the hill, up the hill, down the hill. You don't know if the group ahead of you is clear because they are blind shots and there isn't a bell for the to ring to tell you if they are clear. Balls were flying from every direction, and although I did not see anyone get hit, I'm sure it happens quite a bit. Carts are old, some have broken keys in them. Course could use an upgrade. I'd like to play the back to see if it is any better than the front. I would never play full price for this course and layout.

not bad

Not sure if this course is not being cared for or not. Only one guy in the pro shop, no marshall on the course, no cart guys. Seems as though this course might be where the local hackers come to play. Extremely slow round of golf. However, the course itself was fine. The condition of the course was good, but I'd like to come back in the summer to see if it is better. greens take a little getting used to (kinda slow), but the ball rolls true.

Callaway Gardens-Mountain View

If you like sand, this is the course for you. A majority of the holes have a couple of bunkers in front of the green. However, if you can hit the ball in the air, you should have no problems. If you are looking for a nice relaxing round of golf, head to this place. Takes a few holes to get use to the greens (just a little slow), but when you do, they roll nice and true. A couple of par 3's are pretty long, but they are a nice change to the 140 to 150 yard common holes. Water comes in to play on a few holes, which makes things interesting. Staff is extremely friendly.

RTJ trail in Dothan

this place is just flat out great. My third time back, and it seems to get better each time. The greens are better than ever, and the fairways are cut perfectly. Unfortunately, I was in the sand more than I wanted to be, but it was really nice and soft, easy to get out of. I can't say enough about each of these 9's. Each one different than the other, and very enjoyable to play. Pro shop staff very friendly and helpful. Turning in to one of my favorite places to play. It is definitely worth the drive.

great deal for the money

this course was in great shape. the greens were slower than other courses I've played recently, but they rolled true. Fairways were beautiful and the rough was...well, rough. lots of short par 4's if playing from the whites, and what I liked about it was having to think about using your other clubs to set up your second shots. I played on a Friday afternoon, very few people were out (chance of rain), so I actually played (two of us) in about three and a half hours. Beautiful course, can't wait to go back.

very fun to play

Pretty flat course for the most part. Greens roll extremely well and true. Could be lots of water on the course, but most are dried out because of drought conditions lately. Don't expect to grab a drink or food after 9 holes, because the 9th and 10th holes might be the furthest from the clubhouse than any of the holes. The more holes you play, the farther away you get. Starts coming back around 13th hole, which is pretty neat. Really enjoyed the round

this course has great specials, staff is very friendly

front nine is a little tight, you better be hitting it straight. back nine is a little more open. I like to use most of my clubs in a round, and this course will allow you to do that. decisions must be made a few times whether to go for it, or to lay up. greens were a little roughed up (splotches here and there), but were rolling true, and the splotches very rarely came in to play. I 'have' noticed that quite a few golfers hit from the blues, and a lot of them can't make it to the reds, which slows down the round. However, I"ve played this course a half dozen times now, and really enjoy it.
