Response from Wilmette Golf Club on 08/01/2018:
Thank you for playing Wilmette Golf Club for the last 20 years, Ron. We’re sorry to hear you feel the way you do about your most recent round with us. We’re not quite sure what you’re referring to regarding the course conditions. Our maintenance crew has put in a lot of hard work to make our course conditions the best they’ve been in several years and we’re very proud of the results. Many other golfers who have played Wilmette Golf Club this year agree, as seen in the recent reviews below. We hope you give us the chance to exceed your expectations in the near future.
"We’re not quite sure what you’re referring to regarding the course conditions." Wilmette management has responded several times to negative comments about fairway grass conditions. They must be in denial. I believe every fairway on the course has some section that is either roped off or sections of "grass" (dirt with hope of grass) that are not very playable. Holes 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, and 15 are significant sections in bad shape. I appreciate that the grounds crew may be working hard, but that is akin to a "participation award"---fairway grass conditions are not good.
