Enjoyed a nice sunny day at Eagle Springs before my afternoon bike ride. This is a fun course set in the hills just outside of Fresno. Track has lot’s of elevation changes and a few water hazards to complement the fun and challenge. There are also a lot very strategically placed trees that make hitting the correct side of the fairway for proper approach angle key. Greens are medium sized with some having moderate slope and undulations and others with severe. Greens roll at a medium-slow pace but are soft and hold shots well.

Fairways have some brown areas but they are lush throughout regardless of color. The rough was brutal. Not very tall but definitely thick and penal. No issues with the tee boxes. Level and lush though they seemed to have more brown spots than the fairways.
Sand traps were ok to need improvement. One had numerous rocks and pebbles in it.

I’m started to think the POP is SLOW here. Course doesn’t see much play but those who are out there TAKE THEIR TIME. 4 1/2+ hour rounds when there is less than 20 total players out on the course is brutal. But it did cut my bike ride down to 3 hours… but that’s a story for a different day.

Cart gal was out and about all day and staff in the pro shop and restaurant were very friendly. As stated before, Eagle Springs is a solid choice when in the Fresno area. Just don’t expect it to be a quick round.
