So very SLOW

Nice course, in good enough condition, great price on Golf Now, but no,one enjoys a round that took r hours and 15 minutes to complete. Where was the Marshall? Such slow play pretty much ruins a round of golf.

Two golf groups in front of us were late by 10-12 minutes which slowed everyone else behind our group. Starter should have cancelled them out completely.

Inconsistent pace of play assessment

My friend on I were paired with another two some and were on target to finish all 18 holes in 4 hours 45 minutes. One of the rangers notified us to pick up the pace of play because there were two open holes ahead. The request was unnecessary and caused for a bad experience the last 4 holes.

Just because there are two holes open ahead doesn’t mean we are slowing down pace of play. All groups have varying playing experience and needs to be properly assessed before being asked to speed up. Our group was really trying and not spending any time, if any for lost balls just so we can pick up the pace of play.

In the past, we experienced back ups and nothing was done by the rangers. We’ll think twice before coming back to this course and will relay our expience to others.

Golf is 4 hours for a foursome, cart or walking not matter which tee box your playing from. Not 4 hours and 45 minutes. I agree with the rangers. Pick up your ball and move on.

Staff

All the employees at this course are helpful and friendly. A young man accidentally drove his cart through the guardrail of a small bridge going over a creek. The man was not hurt and the car wound up not in the water, but needed several people to get it out. The staff took care of it in less than 20 minutes and the young man was able to finish his round. Some places would have charged to get the cart out. No here; just concern to make sure he was ok. This is just one example of the great attitude here. Kenny, Larry, and Kris at the bar deserve special mention.

Needs attention in a few areas

While I love to play Redtail, it has gone downhill since I last played the course. Cart paths are in major disrepair and the bunkers seem to have rocks everywhere. Course staff is always great.
