Sentry World, Jun 07, 2004

reviewer: Jim Westenberger from Stevens Point, WI USA

This course is top shelf. No two holes alike and you need every club in the bag. Plays longer than the actual yardage as the fairways are usually soft and little roll on tee shots. Trent Jones didn't call this course his "Mona Lisa" for nothing.

Madera Golf & Country Club
"Jan 11, 2004"
This is a great layout with some long par 3's. The fairways are wide but trees line many holes and you must be in position in the fairway to get a shot at the small greens. Speed of the greens is medium-fast. Greens and Tee boxes were in good shape but the bermuda fairways are dormant and not overseeded for the winter. Play is slower on Sunday's but everyone was friendly and helpful.

Cheraw State Park Golf Course
"Always a pleasure"
Having played this course each year for the past 10 years or so, it is always on my play list. Beautifully maintained, a challenge to play, overall relaxed round of golf. If you haven't played it, make sure you do!

"Wayne county gem!"
One of the nicest public tracks you will ever play! Nice layout, fast greens, and carpet-like fairways. Nice people running the show. What a great track!!

Vista Valencia Golf Course - Executive Course
"Short crowded course no joy to play"
Vista Valencia is a golf course that survives because it is one of the few places to play in the highly populated Santa Clarita Valley. This is a classic American Golf type of club. Short on amenities and long on wait, wait, wait. The goal here is to get as many people on the course that ensures the day's sales. Some very short tricked up par three's, par four's are somewhat better #1, #7, #10, and #18 are decent. It is hard to keep this course in great shape and the practice facilities are always crowded. Play somewhere else if you have a chance in So. Cal rather than here. Rounds can be up to five hours long on this executive course.
