we had a mid-morning tee time and still the round was 5 hours for our group of 3. No fault except course management. They let a group of 6 go off about 9:30, who proceeded to drink heavily, play really slow, and back everyone up behind them. No rangers either to keep play moving. When we finally got to hole 14, we were told holes 16, 17 and 18 were all empty in front of the group of 6 who were just approaching the tee at 16 . To add insult to injury, prior to teeing off, you could tell these "'two threesomes" were friends with people behind the front desk!

We have played several rounds on this course every summer for the past 5 years. The course today is in the worst condition we have ever seen it. Perhaps it's the new minimum wage and sick time accrual laws that took effect this year in Arizona.....but clearly the grounds staff have been cut to a bare minimum AND the greens truly suck (there's no other way to describe them). Clipped grasses from mowing covered the roughs, the fairways were okay, but the greens were in horrible condition.....several were browned out and recently painted, they had lots of roughed up areas on them. In the past the greens had always been the best part. We won't be back again this year and perhaps not next.
