No starter or Ranger

Pace of play has slowed considerably the last two times playing the course. Tee times spaced 10 minutes apart are too frequent for a public course with a wide level of skill levels on the course. Lack of starter results in twosomes not being paired up, which slows play further. No ranger on course to monitor and help speed up the pace of play leaves faster groups no options other than to wait for slow groups ahead, which results in rounds 5-6 hours long, or skipping holes to avoid rounds longer than five hours.

Played Player Course. Took four hours to play 13 holes. Called it a day after that because there was not going to be any improvement in slow play and it would likely have taken another two hours to finish the round. Contributing factors to slow play were "cart path only" restrictions and long rough. Not the fault of the course, just saying to be prepared for a long day under similar conditions if you are not an advanced golfer. Also a warning for other than advanced golfers, there are many forced carries and blind shots on the Player Course, which can result in a frustrating day.

Thank you for playing and thank you for your review. We apologize that it was a slow round. Hopefully the course dries out so that we can cut the rough and get the carts out on the fairways this week!
