Played On 06/19/2020Bad Experience at this golf course
After being stuck inside for 3 months due to Covid-19 my group and I were so happy to be playing golf, especially for fathers day. Three of us had carts. One walked. 2 of us were seniors playing as well. We finished this course in 3 hours and 14 minutes.
Right when we got there, we weren't greeted by friendly staff. After the fourth hole we were harassed and pushed by the marshals, and 3 course members who were playing behind us. Those so called members weren't social distancing, or following golf etiquette. We couldn't line up our putts or shots without these guys intimidating us by swinging away behind us, crossing their arms with a disgusting look, and pushing us and they never caught up to us. I've been playing golf for sixty years and have been a member at top notch golf courses and I truly believe in golf etiquette.
Again, we finished our round in 3 hours and 14 minutes which is excellent for 4 golfers and 18 holes. The marshals for some reason weren't happy as they told us to pick up the pace even though we were way ahead of schedule. They were pushy and demanding. We teed off at 7:52am and finished at 11:06am and they still weren't pleased with this.
The greens were okay, the fairways needed some work, and the tee boxes were terrible.
This didn't feel like a golf game. It felt like we were on a fast conveyer belt and just couldn't enjoy it at all.
Again, 3 hours and 14 minutes and it wasn't good enough.
Overall, it was a very disappointing experience for a father's day gift.
If you want harassment and intimidation by the marshals and the so called members this is the place to go to.
