Happy new year

Thought I'd give this one a shot. Played oaks. Check in was casual but confusing. Nice chipping and putting area while you wait. Starter didn't seem to care about your name or time. He just got it done efficiently. Time of year for dormant grass so you get tight lies. Bunkers were good and raked up. Greens were painted but smooth and a decent speed. Layout had some neat hole designs. Second or 3rd time playing you'd figure what to hit where on some holes on the back. Seemed more like a $30 value but supply and demand dictates.

Great place to play

Even though it was a bit breezy, had a great time at the Oaks. Greens are quicker since the cooler weather and the grass is in its dormant state. Fairways are still green and the rough is low, much easier to hit out of.

Yeah that's real helpful - NOT! Course played all right today - greens are pretty good for winter time and fairways are decent. I'd rate 3 1/2 out of 5. Pace of play could have been a little better. Shouldn't have let the 3 walkers around 12:10 this afternoon out in front of us because we know they have been told before to let people play through but they are morons to say the least and are tremendously rude.
