Played today, Saturday. Course is in good overall condition. Walked on as a single, Chris in the pro shop was very helpful. Pace of Play (POP) was pretty foul at 5 hrs. 3 groups on 6 tee-box was awful. Oh well, what do you expect for a municipal on a beautiful Saturday. Other than the wait on 6 and 10, it wasn’t too bad. We literally waited on 6 for 30mins, waited on 10 for 15mins and waited on 17 for 15mins. So other than that, it was smooth.
Teeboxes were just fine. Some divot damage, but always level and able to find a good place to tee it up. Fairways were in pretty good shape. The landing areas were in better shape than the short/long/inbetween areas. I never had any problem in the fairway. Rough was pretty brutal, long and lush. stay out of the rough. I was in one bunker and it was just fine. Greens were great, held shots well and putted very true and quick.
Go ahead and get on out there. I think this track is awesome. Great layout and pretty darn challenging. so many killer holes, 10, 14,16 are just killer
