I always enjoy playing at Callahan. Course is in good shape and getting better every year.

The course is in pretty decent shape, and it continues to improve year over year. The pace of play is horrible every time I play there. On this particular day I had a 9:40 tee time. My playing partner and I arrived early and I asked the starter if it was possible to go out early. He said no and did not provide a reason. The tee box was empty, and remained empty for 20 minutes, but he wouldn’t let us tee off. Then he put us behind a group of 4 ladies. 9 holes took 3 hours and I didn’t get to complete my round. I have worked for golf courses in the past, and typically if there’s an opening, and you can put people in, it’s a good move. I honestly don’t understand why the starter made us wait because I couldn’t see how it would have negatively impacted anything. Pretty sure it had nothing to do with tee times, and more about a “grumpy old man” issue. Regardless, I won’t be playing there anymore.
