Muggy and challenging

Due to the heat and muggy weather course played tougher than normal, only complaint and this is probably due to all the rain the area is receiving is the broad leaf weeds in the rough and fringe areas. Only other observation was the amount of beer sold to the two individuals behind us, I would not have wanted to be on the road when they left the course.

Going downhill fast

A,ways enjoyed this course in the past, today was another story; checked in as a single using GolfNow and all he did was complain first about singles showing up to play, next the Ed for the course to stop using GolfNow and finally what was he going to do with me. I offered to join another group but he mumbled something and he left the register.

When I came back I after nine,the starter was no where to be found and since this course has 3 nines I needed to know which nine I was to play next.

Traps were atrocious, yes there was a significant amount of rain the night before, but, there was minimal sand and pipes were exposed on at least one trap.

Finally, the woman behind the counter totally ignored me when I wanted a food order, 6 yes 6 people came up to the counter and she took there order. I guess sitting there quietly was my problem.

Lack of organization

Booked as a single on golf now to play with a threesome. There was no starter so I was on my own. Never did see a threesome to play with, actually for about 25 minutes no one went off the first tee. Finally 2 guys went off about 10 minutes before me. They only had one bag; fortunately for me it appeared they ran out of golf balls on the 7th hole and they went to their car; allowing me to play the rest of the round unimpeded.

Course had just been aerated and greens were impossible to read and put.

Staff Top Notch

Scheduled a Memorial tournament on Sunday 9/10; needed to cancel some tee times due to travel difficulties associated with Hurricane Irma. Staff was extremely accommodating considering the tee times lost. Course was in excellent condition except with a few traps associated with all the rain this summer. The individuals who played most from NJ and as far away as NC enjoyed the challenge the course presented.

Fivesomes???? Seriously on a Saturday

I am either getting old or the course etiquette has deteriorated, I have seen groups who join together on a course as five some, but yesterday was the first time I have ever seen it on the first tee. I saw at least 4 five somes and 1 group of 6 playing together. In addition, waiting for a twosome in front of us who were hitting a minimal of two shots each almost had me leave the course. If it would not have been for the gorgeous weather I would have.

Friendly staff, great course with interesting variations

2nd time that I played Reading CC, staff was very accommodating since I was a single. For me, the course is challenging and it requires shot placement; looking forward to a tournament I am organizing later this year at Reading.

Slow Play

Course was in excellent shape considering the lack of rain in the area, pace of play was extremely slow since the course did not enforce fivesomes playing together.
