we played in Santee for four straight days. Out of all the area courses, this one had BY FAR the best greens. They were perfect. The only problem was, whoever set the pin locations has no idea what they are doing. There were three pin locations that were almost impossible. On 17, the pin was cut on the very edge of a slope that ran off the green (middle left). Any putt above the hole had no chance of staying on the green unless it hit the hole. Putts from below the hole would come right back off the green if they did not go in. If the pin were cut four feet further to the right, there would have been no issue. This was also the case on 8 (front right) and 9 (back left) Golf course staff, I hope you read this. If you are concerned about pace of play, especially when a large group visits, do yourselves a favor and place the pins in a more favorable location.

we played all week in the Santee area. Have played this course many times, always in mid-late April. The greens are always iffy. The greens at the other area courses were in much better shape. Lots of poa annua coming in especially on a few of the greens. #9 seemed to be the worst. Probably the best fairways we played and the practice area and other amenities are the best in the area.

Also, there were two pins that were cut in terrible locations. #'s 7 and 15 you could not keep a putt on the green if it did not hit the hole.
