Snails Would Love This Course

I remain steadfast in my thinking that a golf course ranger's job should be to help golfers finish their round in a time appropriate for the course and not to roll up on people on the second hole of their round to ask them to slow down because " . . . it is going to be real slow out there." This course's greens are in good shape, but the rest of the place needs a lot of care ---- fairways and rough are barren of grass, and bunkers are full of rocks and have an uneven spread of sand. But my big complaint is the pace of play. It seems that Sonoma ranch thinks it is okay with a 5.30 hour round. If that's your cup of tea and you don't mind hitting off dirt and sand, well this is your track. As for me, I left after 8 because things were so slow and the only time I saw the ranger was on the second hole when he asked me to play slower.

The front 9 we were running into each group—frustrating. However, when I went to play the back (my preference)no one was there! Very strange.

Sad

Nice layout, but overall conditions are very poor. Greens, tees fairways and greens all in poor to fair shape.

More time

Golf course needs more time and work to get back to being nice. Can see that grass has been panted and drains put in. It is going to take time for course to come back after letting it go for so long. Glad new owners are trying and working to accomplish this. Thanks

The Real Sonoma Ranch golf course

Sonoma Ranch golf course is a good golf course but the past years have been rough there. Literally, the course plays like playing the rough in many holes. The fairways are without grass in many areas. The rough and other areas need trimming.

Not worth the green fee

This course is not worth the current green fee. With as many maintenance workers at the course, this course should be in awesome condition. Not sure if the Course Superintendent trains the maintenance crew, they could use some help.

Sunday Starter

For the last three sundays the starter has made a bad example of Red Hawk trying to be a golf course above the rest. He is confused and slows people down to t-times later than they signed up for. Even with number 1 fair way and green open he makes people wait. This causes more people to be late for there start time. Needs to be moved to a day not as busy or monitored with someone who knows how to be a starter. Example the group was in club house checking in late so made others on time wait. Sorry to bring this to your attention but Red Hawk needs to address this situation as first impression is very important.

Tee boxes are in bad shape. Greens are tough and hilly. Requires precision and shot placement
