BAD GREENS - BAD PRO SHOP MANAGEMENT

We were recommended to golf Bali Hai golf club by a friend who lives in Las Vegas and has taking me to some beautiful courses. There were four of us going to Vegas for business and staying fairly close by at the Trump Tower. We were only golfing 1 round of golf this trip - so we also rented 4 sets of clubs. We had an 8:50AM tee time for four of us on Thursday March 30th, 2017 and showed up a bit early so we could possibly get out early to make sure we played a good speed. We teed up around 8:30AM. We were greeted very friendly at the first tee and told about the course and rules. We teed up - got to first green and it appeared to be freshly aerated (without being rolled). No Putting game today - we said. We were hoping that it may just be the first Green....WELL - that WAS NOT the CASE! It was 16 out of 18 greens. Half way through the round, the Marshall approached us about being 1/2 hold behind, I said to him - we are taking extra 1 - 2 putts per green do to the divots all over the greens...after the first hole the divots were about every 4 inches 3-4 feet apart. When we got done with round, I went into Pro shop to ask them about this and request why they did not tell us of green conditions. the manager in Pro shop said he want to greens in AM and "they looked fine to him". I requested that he walk out to the 18th green right now and tell me if that looks fine to him. He walked out of Pro Shop.

When I got back to my hotel, i called back to Bali Hai Club Pro shop again to ask them what they were going to do? They told me that they were willing to discount my next trip because they did see that the greens were divot ed and stated that whoever rolled them must have missed a line (on every turn?) and they forgot to roll number 1.... I told them that that was not adequate and that they could go to management to let me know what they were going to do for our foursome.

I called the Bali Hai Golf Pro shop today (#BaliHaigolfclub), and the response I received was, that they admitted error but would only discount a FUTURE VISIT? REALLY? I suggested they at least credit the $72.00 rental club cost per guest.... They said "NO" and did not seem to care that i was going to post this review...FUNNY THING is that I have spoken with both my golf buddies who live in Vegas - they are done referring people to this course...

Sincerely,
