Mixed Up Start

Lacking carts so some groups waited others going in their place but no communication on order from the staff. We made our own foursome and went after the first hole was wide open. Pace was ok at 4:30 but group two in front fell a hole and then two behind. Like the course. Overall decent shape, greens and fairways pretty consistent.

Fivesomes Kill Pace of Play

Like the course. Check in always smooth and friendly. Course was in good shape.Lots of unrepaired ball marks on. The greens. They pack fivesomes and both sides and kills pace of play. Played front in 2:20 on 12 looked over and there were 5 groups backed up on 16, same when we got there!!! Waited over 30 minutes before we could tee off. Ended taking 5:15 to play the round. Finished in the dark.

Really, teeing off as a fivesome

Teeing off as a group of five was a surprise and makes it that much more challenging to finish when playing twilight. We kept up with the group in front of us but how many groups of five were in front of us that add to slowing the pace of play. A marshall would be a good thing as the group in front of us was driving on the green with too much to drink.

Deathly slow play

We have played many times and this was the worst ever. 3 hours for the front nine and not much quicker on the back due two two old couples who seemed they were making a day of it with over two empty holes in front of them. No starter so groups were going off as two twosomes even though they were booked together. There were 6 groups on hole 3 when we arrived at the hole

Course in ok shape except the bunkers where the bottoms were rock hard - need some work.

Frost delay

The pro shop was disorganized over the delay. Wasn't reassured if we were going to be able to play due to the delay. Had to wait around for a decision on if we were going to have a cart. Once everything was settled down and we got a cart and teed off, we were only able to get in 14 holes due to darkness.
