Playing Conditions 9.16 IMMACULATE

I started my New Year’s Day here. I had a 8 A.M. tee time, but had a frost delay for about 30 min., after the delay was lifted, we where given the opportunity to go to the range and practice area. They have one of the best short game and practice area, that I’ve used.

Now to the game. The tee boxes have been one of the best I have played on in a long time. They are large firm and flat, with minimal, to not damage. The fairways are large and spacious, not too many trees to hit into. But there are so gorgeous and majestic views from some of the back 9 tee locations, so there are forced carry to reach the fairways. It is a must to play the proper tee locations, I played white, which was good for me. The fairways are firm flat and have some lushness to it. The rough was cut down, so it was easy to play through those lies.
The bunkers are placed on many of the holes, which adds to the beauty of this course. The sand was a bit firm, not fluffy, but playable. The greens rolled really fast, I mean really fast, but true. the greens also have some angulation, you need to read before striking your putt. If you are above the hole, be careful, because a miss 1st put may give you and additional 2 or 3 putts to finish. I saw more putts, barely tapped, run 8-10 feet passed, because of the angulation. A couple of hole had pin placements right on the edge of the slope.
Overall the course is in super condition, it has great views and character throughout the layout of the track. It should be a must play for your Bucket List for 2018.

Out this afternoon 12/4/2018 walking the orange tees joined by my buddy Mack and his buddy Brian and a nice single. We teed off at 11:50am 10 minutes early and finished at 4:20pm for a POP of 4 hrs 30 minutes–we played the front in 2 hrs and then had a 3 group back-up on #10 tee. Weather was beautiful maybe 1 club wind and around 70 degrees at tee off. Paid the walking twilight rate of $19.00 which considering how nice and lush the course is might be one of the best deals in Ventura County.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.29 GREAT

Soule Park should be commended on current conditions–very lush and green fairways with very little problem areas. Rated 8/10.

Greens looking and rolling beautiful. Very little to no ball marks, holding very softly on approaches and actually rolling medium to fast. In great shape. Rated 8/10.

Tees mostly level and lush–rated 7.5/10

Was not in any bunkers but they looked to be raked and in good shape.

Rough generally lush and green and in good shape. Rated 8/10.

I just love this course–especially for the rates they charge. New management is really keeping it up nicely for the start of December. Recommended.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.65 GREAT

Played here on 7/28/17 with a 3:35 tee time. The twilight rate was $180 and we teed off right on time. I don’t get a chance to play here very often due to the rates but when I do I love it.

The course is just visually beautiful and the layout is tons of fun. We finished in four hours with very little waiting. There are many holes that require carry off the tee but the fairways are wide enough that it is not as intimidating as you might think. If you can get off the tee consistently then you can score well. The course conditions as you might expect were very good although I did fix quite a few ball marks and the greens were slower than usual but still putted well.
Overall, the course was 7 out of 10 but I am not sure paying the rack rate of $330 is for everyone. I get it though, the property is in a multi-billion dollar area with views everywhere and the homes in the several million so it fits the needs of this affluent community. However my pocketbook just can’t handle this sort of luxury too often.
Treat yourself to a twilight round if you get a chance! Other than price, this place rates high on my favorites list. After our round we went to the bar for drinks and food. We found the food just average though which was surprising considering the clientele. The SCGA has outings here for $160 which I think is a pretty good deal and you are guaranteed to finish.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.50 GREAT

Played in a charity event on Monday morning 4/17, shotgun start scramble format. This is a top notch facility in customer service and the location of the course. Driving range was mats only and the putting green was on the small side with a putting contest going on, there are putting greens on the first tee but were under maintenance. Played the South from the blue markers and the course played tough.

Tee boxes were a little on the long side, Fairways were still dormant but had good coverage, rough is up a little and need to keep an eye on your ball because it settles down out of sight. Greens were very receptive and rolled true. Lots of subtle breaks and elevation changes on the green complexes. Club selection is tricky due to the change in wind direction and uphill and downhill shots.
Course would be a tough walk. Bring your camera because each hole has great views. Pace of Play (POP) was 5 1/2 hours due to the tournament.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.43 GREAT

Played this morning at 6:50 with three other friends. Goose is one of my favorite courses but was wondering how it would play after the last two days of rain. All considering, the course drains out pretty well.

There was some water in the bunkers, but moved my ball a club length.  In the two bunkers I was in shots had a little too much bounce with my wedge on the wet sand. I bogeyed both holes. Not their fault, mine. They let us us drive the carts on the fairways so, apparently they didn’t think it was that wet. Greens were great considering winter conditions right now.
We played in under four hours. The course is a ways from my stomping grounds, but always a joy to play.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.70 GREATPlayed here yesterday in perfect weather. I have played here a few times and always look forward to coming back. The course conditions are always good and the layout is great. The course. Conditions right now are nearing great but I have played it in better. The greens were the highlight with smooth and fast surfaces and they will only get better. The tees were level, the bunkers played great, and the fairways were good but can get better with more time. There was a number of areas marked as Ground Under Repair (GUR) and I noticed many downed trees throughout the course. Great time and can’t wait to return.

Sub four hour round on a clear cool beautiful fall day. The staff was welcoming especially the starter for our round – real nice guy, as well as the marshal out that morning! The facility has two 18 hole courses that mingle somewhat throughout the round. The tee boxes were all in great shape with a couple of the par 3’s a bit chewed up but playable. The fairways had fantastic coverage with mostly tight lies and a bit of divot damage from approach areas on the par 4’s and par 5’s. The rough was very thick and made finding shots not in the short stuff a challenge. The traps were great around the greens – I did notice a few fairway traps that were a bit shaggy around the edges. The greens were rolling pretty fast and were not holding all good approach shots real well. Most of the greens are very large and extremely sloped with a few different levels on some holes – made for a fun round of putt putt golf! I loved the views of the Bay from the course and the overall conditions! This is surely a course that a couple of rounds would make a good difference for scoring and shot selection. The rates are very reasonable for the course and worth the short drive from the south or the Bay Area. I recommend Black Horse to those that enjoy a well maintained course with great views at a fair rate!!

Golf Playing Conditions 10.00 IMMACULATE

Played here on 12/8/17 as a group of 7 and finished in about 5 1/2 hrs. Our group teed off on #10 at 9:15am as the #1 tee wasn’t available till after 10am for us. It was 3rd time for us here and the views and course conditions still continue to amaze us. Everything here was near perfect with the exception of rock-hard fairways under the grass coverage. For our group, divot repair wasn’t necessary as we couldn’t make a divot if we tried.

This is probably the only course we don’t mind playing in over 5 hrs as it allows us for more relaxed picture taking opportunities.
Although some may say the course is a bit tricked-up, for us, Wolf Creek remains as our #1 favorite course. Certainly recommended.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.51 GREAT

Played 5/26.  First out, a real treat; course in very good shape.  All the rains really helped. greens are tricky to read, especially anything coming in from the sides towards the hole.  It plays with more break than your eyes see.  If you miss, keep everything under the hole if possible.  Chipping and pitching from the sides is challenging, greens are bigger than they look, and being closer to the ocean, the ball does not carry like it does inland.  Consider taking a longer club on some approach shots, especially since many greens slope pretty good from front to back, with some false fronts.

Course is now open to the public, but, call ahead; lots of member groups, outings etc. just to be on the safe side.  Owned by the same gentlemen who bought La Purisima, a good choice to play, if in the area, stay healthy, drive safely,

Played 7-3-17 on a Teeoff deal for $90 playing as a foursome teeing off at 11:10 and finishing at 3:50.

Tee boxes were in really good shape, level and lush. Fairways were very nice and lush with descent roll out and the ball sitting up nicely. Rough was very healthy and thick, 2-3 inches in most areas with some areas being a little longer. Was in two green-side bunkers that had very nice white sand. Greens were in good shape rolling medium pace and fairly smooth.
Overall course was in really good shape. Rack rate is a little steep here but if you can find a deal it is worth playing.
