Chambers Bay
June 27th, 2008
I haven’t played Chambers Bay yet but I heard the greens were really slow and the fairways are pretty skinny yet. Is this true? Should I wait a year or so before dropping my dough to play there?

While it is definitely true the greens are pretty slow (though not bad necessarily) and the dunes not entirely covered with fescue yet (and thus still a bit bare), Chambers Bay is still a fantastic experience. Even if it was in awful condition, its location and design would still make it worth playing. Why not satisfy your curiosity and go now? Then go back in a couple of years’ time when the ‘dunes’ have settled a bit and the greens are rolling a bit quicker?
i played chambers bay last week and i was not very impressed with the course, and why everybody is all hiped up about chambers bay this and chambers bay that. what is all the hipe about? Seriously, to say the least it was a very average golf course with extreamly SLOW!! greens. To me it was not worth the greens fee of $170. I have played probably a half/dozen golf courses in the area that are in better shape, more difficult and more worth the money. Gold Mountain, Trophey Lake, Druids Glen, The Home Course, Washington National. I do understand however that chambers bay is still very young and will be more formitable in the years to come. If it was not for the setting on the pudget sound with the great view’s it would nor will be considered a great course. and with that being said i rest my case, “SAVE YOUR MONEY” for now.
