A fine old muni

Always enjoy playing Rose City. It's not a bad walk and has plenty of challenges. The greens were lightly sanded, which seemed odd in August but could be related to the, formerly, unusually hot weather.

Conditions very good

After playing many other public courses in Portland this one stands out. They have clearly invested in course management and it shows. Sand traps actually have sand in them fairways and greens are green. For early August the course was in excellent condition.

Know the rules for everyone’s benefit.

The course was pretty wet, I lost 3 balls in the fringe of the fairways. Maybe it was also a consequence of the long grass, but because of the wettest it couldn’t be mowed.
My biggest issue was a foursome that was glacial slow and didn’t care I was behind them. They were not young and should know they are to suppose to keep up with the group ahead of them. There was nobody within sight of these gentlemen. A marshal would have helped this situation.
