Played On 06/21/2018Weapons Of Grass Destruction
I have played this course for 18 years, I played on 21/06 for the first time there since the year before and wow just wow what a change. The grass is just dead on nearly every front 9 fairway and it’s bone hard underneath borderline unplayable from the fairways with an iron due to how hard it is, now I know it’s been dry and warm but I’ve played a lot of local courses and all are managing this well without issue so it’s not a weather thing affecting all places. The starter man is just the most miserable person I’ve encountered and I’m pretty bad but he puts me too shame. It really is a shame what’s happened at the course as it used to be lovely however my 4 ball all said the same that we would never return again, it’s quickly become a course all about taking money, getting as many on as possible and not caring beyond that point, no etiquette from people for playing through, no Marshall’s, no common sense, if it’s so busy alternate starts between the front and back 9 it’s not hard but the starter bloke is a big no to that UNLESS you’re a friend of his. Whole place has become a shambles and it’s a real shame, I would recommend not playing here and going to an alternative
