| Half Moon Bay Golf Links - Ocean Course -- Overrated and Expensive |
| Review by: Rick |
The natural setting of this course is hard to beat. On a clear day (it's foggy a lot)you just can't top the views. It's hard to justify $125 green fee when there are so many top rated courses within 35 miles. Course conditions were good, but the play was incredibly slow. 5.5 hours to play is way to long. The Marshall's didn't do anything we could see to move slow groups along. The Pro Shop Staff weren't the friendliest either. They need score cards with the hole layout or signs at the tee boxes. Several holes (i.e. #1 is a blind shot from the tee and you don't know where the green is). |

Greens look tricky, but are generally fair. They are never as fast as they look.
Beautiful scenery. We usually see deer.
It is one of the few courses in SoCal which you can "walk-on," even on a weekend morning.
Expect the ball to break away from the mountains when you read your putts.
It is not the easiest course to walk, but it is not near as tough to walk as Mountain Meadows in nearby Pomona.
Course is plenty long enough although big hitters will probably want to keep your driver in the bag on 3, 8, and 12 (unless you have an awesome draw and know the course).
7 is a very tough par 3 with about a 200 yard tee shot to a green you cannot see.
The course has some very interesting corners to it. I love the layout of 1-2-3 and 10-11-12. 1 and 10 are reach-able par 5s, 2 and 11 are scenic par 3s, while 3 and 12 are fair, dogleg lefts.
This is a county course so it is not very expensive. I like playing around 4pm when it costs $11 to walk. Students are $5 all day on weekdays.
Hit'em straight and keep it below the hole. |
