Fun Track!
Always a good round here. Friendly layout but also challenging on some holes. Conditions are really good right now and greens roll very true. All in all a good, fun, long track where it’s always a good time!
Plays long.
The forward tees are not much closer than white tees. If you are a short hitter, the course plays long.
Friend of Marshall, play as slow as you want
Pro shop was contacted by the golfer behind us for the slow play of the group, 2 groups ahead of us. They tee'd off as they should, but by the 3rd hole, they were behind a full hole! The Marshall came out advised us of slow play and when told about his group of friends, he was visibly flustered, but did nothing. He didn't go and talk to them, he did nothing. 3 hours for 9 holes at this course is too long, so we left.
Good Day of Golf
I enjoy playing here often. Pace of play can be slow. The starter doesnt seem to understand or appreciate the need for the tee time intervals. He will arbitrarily get people to tee off just after the fairway is clear. This leads to backups on the ensuing holes. Many Times I have shown up early to get some practice in only to be rushed onto the teebox ten to twenty minutes before our scheduled teetime. This results in having to wait on the next holes. JUST PLAIN STUPID!!!
Greens are almost fully recovered
Ball marks do more damage as the greens are still in recovery. Pace depends on more so on the people in front of you as opposed to the course layout.
You should know
Greens are punched and sanded as of 10/2, several temp greens on course. There is NO warning on GolfNow so I figured you should at least know this before you pay $70 for a partial experience, as the temp greens in particular are a joke
Vortex
When I arrived this course was in excellent condition, unfortunately there was something going on which caused the Earth to move while I was swinging my clubs, causing me to take big chunks out of the pristine course. This unexpected movement of the Earth really ruined my round causing for extra unnecessary strokes, and leaving a wake of damage in my path. On occasion, the greens themselves would actually move causing my perfectly placed shot to miss the green. With all the issues I just mentioned, once I was able to finally get my ball on the greens the greens seemed to be in good condition, however again there was unexpected ground movement, This time the movement was the hole itself. They would shift to the right or left, away from my ball and on several occasions it came closer to me, after I hit a perfect putt.
Overall these unexpected conditions added 17 shots to my score. Very disappointing. Unfortunately it does not seem these conditions are peculiar to this one course as it seems to happen on other courses I play week after week.
