Local Rules
Cables on holes 1–3: swing relief only
Cables on holes 1, 2 and 3 are not out of bounds; the official local rule allows swing relief from cables only. All other cables and fences are out of bounds.
Ball-up only on your own fairway
The official local rule allows ball-up only on your own fairway; elsewhere play the ball as it lies or move it with one stroke penalty.
Cart path and out-of-bounds procedure
The official local rule provides a one-stroke procedure when a ball lies between a cart path and out of bounds: move within two club lengths of the opposite side of the cart path from out of bounds, no closer to the hole.
Course Intelligence
Course Character
The course rewards disciplined positioning and a precise approach to the published local rules more than aggressive power: keep the ball on your own fairway, plan around cables and use the center-green yardage markers. The official Comanche Creek Golf Course site matches the Mason course and describes a tidy nine-hole layout through Fort Mason Park. It has four tee sets, small elevated greens, minimal hazards, marked sprinkler-head yardages and a walking-friendly design; the site also publishes course-specific local rules and cart-path-only play. Community-built nine-hole course with small elevated greens and practical local rules
Major Risks
Cable and fence status matters Cables on holes 1–3 are not out of bounds and allow swing relief only; all other cables and fences are out of bounds under the official local rules. Cart paths only The official site states cart paths only and prohibits metal spikes; plan club selection and walking lines accordingly. Fairway-only preferred lie rule The official local rules allow ball-up only on your own fairway; elsewhere play the ball as it lies or take the stated one-stroke option.
Blue Tee Strategy
The official site publishes White/Purple 69.7/111, Seniors Green/Blue 64.2/93 and Yellow/Red 66.5/106 ratings/slope values. The blue marker is a 200-yard center-green reference, not proof of a named Blue tee; confirm the day’s tee set at the clubhouse. Use conservative targets and the marked center-green distances because greens are small and elevated. Four tee sets are available; the official ratings identify White/Purple and Seniors Green/Blue
Golfer Reviews / Consensus

Available comments are positive about the greens, friendliness and relaxed community setting, but independent review evidence is limited. LOW The official site includes comments describing good greens, a fun family-friendly course and an easygoing park setting.

Rules Use center-green sprinkler/marker yardages, play cart paths only and leave metal spikes at home. Setup Favor fairway position and center-green targets; small elevated greens make short-sided misses expensive.
