The General Old Golf Course was an 18-hole,
par 71 course that measured 6,801 yards from the back tees, and had a rating of
72.1 and a slope rating of 120. It first
opened in 1958 and was located in March AFB.
After the public was allowed access the air base was closed. The designed is not known.
The fairways
played semi-narrow, but the beginner golfer could still play the course and
enjoy it. This was a desert course, with
many trees; local area vegetation, and scenic mountain views, but still a
sneaky tough course. Each green was
guarded by numerous sand bunkers left and right. For a desert course, the greens were always
in great condition and fast.
The golf
course was open to the public.
