Default Oakleigh Executive

Here is another executive golf course that is in very good condition. Played there yesterday.

Greens are in good shape with a grass collar around most of the greens giving you a fighting chance at having a decent chip ….

I guess that the “El Nino Hoax” just passed this one by !

I would rate the entire course an 8 out 10 ….

Most of the courses in the northern area are in good shape. Maybe they just have better understanding of how to treat the lawns up here. But, that is not the case of El Diablo. It's in very bad shape.

Quit telling everybody! You want all those Southies coming up here and messing up our courses?

Maybe it’s because Oakleigh was closed for 2 months during the El Niño weather patterns in Dec/Jan/Feb.

The courses up north get lots of play too. I think it all comes down to who is in charge of the care of these golf courses. It's obvious some people do not know what they are doing!

One was closed for retention pond drain tubing replacement for 2 months or so.
