Played On 08/20/2020worst golf experience this year.
Had the worst experience today golfing. I've golfed this year over 50 times and this course was the worst. We booked a tee time for 3 guys, one of the marshals came upto us while playing on the 8th hole and told us to speed it up after only 1.5 hours into the front 9. The regulars behind us were driving golf balls before we were even on the putting green. My friend got hit rite in the leg, We told the marshal and he laughed at us and told us we should play faster so that doesn't happen. After that we were harassed by the Marshall watching us play the whole back 9 and would follow us in his cart. Put pressure on us to play fast. were not coming back here to play. Very rude people who only cater to the golf members. We were treated like trash.
Okay George, let's talk. First of all you booked for 4 players, showed up with only 3. Your buddy came into the pro shop wearing CUT-OFF jogging shorts! I politely asked him to choose a more suitable option in the future. He responded with "it's never been an issue at the other golf courses."
By the 7th green you had fallen 2 holes behind the group that started directly in front of you! I know this because it was 2 hours and 5 minutes into your round when I approached you on the 7th green (a far cry from 1.5 hours on hole 8 like you would have everyone believe).
During our discussion you mentioned that the group behind you had hit into you (nothing about actually being hit, not sure what to believe at this point).
Seeing that you guys were struggling I offered to give you a full rain check at this time so that you could give us a try on another day but your friend (jogging shorts guy) swore at me and continued on towards the 8th tee.
The group behind you made their way to the 7th green. I asked them to give you a little distance as you had mentioned they may have hit into you at some point - they seemed shocked at the accusation but obliged.
The marshal will only follow the groups that need to be watched. If you follow the rules and play according to our time par, you will never see him/her. If you need to be watched, they will make it very evident that they are there. That is their job!
I'm not sure where you've played your 50 rounds this year but a place that tolerates 5+ hour rounds and allows jogging shorts as part of their dress code is not a place I'd want to be playing. Stay Safe!
