Very sub standard

I've been playing Willow for over 30 yrs and this is the worst condition I've ever seen ,the greens are in poor shape but not nearly as bad as the tee boxes. The pace of play goes unchecked Im quite sure they have no one that knows how to run a course,if rhey say they do they're lying. If this course is in this bad of shape this early I hate to see it in a month. It is a metro park so they should have the funds to run it right

Hard pan

Probably the poorest of all the Metro Park courses. Lots of hard pan areas off the fairways . Could be better with the same attention as some of the other courses.
