Singles have no priority on a golf course. Seems that when I play here in the summers, in the afternoon there are gentleman that tee off on number 10, or are singles that cause a pace and flow issue by flying around passing you up and/or cluttering and eventually Messing up the rhythm of the round. . I think the club has some sort of yearly or monthly membership program where they pay upfront and it allows unlimited play or cart fee only to jam as much golf in that a local can muster to play? A few times I have played here and teed off mid day, and play the front 9 in 1:30 minutes. Then all of a sudden the back nine is jammed up and with singles who are riding up your %%% or moving around trying to find a gap. The back 9 took 2.5 hours yesterday and it was all singles and twosomes from what I could see in front of us and behind us. We were passed by a twosome in two carts playing polo on 15, and another single on 17. I don’t mind playing in 4 hours but the problem is the disruption of the rhythm, and players trying to sneak in front, and trying to find a space moving around the course like they own the place disrupting play and/or filing gaps.
I suggest that nobody tees off the back 9 until after 4, or before 7:30am. Aside from this distraction the facility is overall consistently super throughout the year in all regards. My suggestion is a simple solution and fair to all the full paying golfers. This is why the game is best playing walking. Bottom line any good golfer knows what I am saying.

The course is a good test of golf. I like how the holes shoot in different directions. The foliage has matured quite a bit in the last 10 years making it even a better layout. When the wind blows it is a very good design, as it is thought out with the predominant wind in mind blowing west to east.

It was a sad day. I have been playing golf for 35 years now and this was the worst fairways I have ever played in my life. The tee boxes were shaggy it is a good thing I had extra long tees. The greens look like they have not been tended to properly in years, as there was dirt or mud under the grass surface as opposed to layers of sand. The greens rolled at about a 4-5 on the stimp I would say. Slowest greens I have played in maybe 30 years. I will say they were not chewed up at least and held just fine.
Let's put it this way, my friend and I almost quit after the first hole, and had I not been in a very good mood and holed out from 130 yards we probably would have. It is a shame it looks like they are letting it die. Like their going BK. It was a nicer course in the valley 20 years ago.
The staff was very kind for the few they needed.
