Answer the phone!

This is the time of year when they punch and sand the greens and I expect it. So I will call the course before booking to ensure the greens are playable. I called Hillcrest 4 times before I booked and no one answered the phone!
Had someone answered I would have found out the just punched! Then played elsewhere! The greens were unplayable. They might be better in November so I wouldn't advise playing there until then.

They punched the greens with no advance notice.

I like the layout and can usually get around without too many delays. Played the front in 40 minutes. Didn't catch anyone until 15. It appeared 2 twosomes had joined up.
I joined Alfonso on the previous hole but the foursome didn't waive us through. Maybe they didn't know they could! Has that ever happened to you?
I had cart 36 which I felt was a good number but it didn't have a GPS , so I thought they had done away with them as I know they cost a club a lot to employ. But it appeared it was just my cart. No biggie but don't take that cart if they assign it to you.
My biggest issue was thee greens were airefied with no website notice so you couldn't make a putt. I understand it's a necessary evil but notice would have been nice. Typical of desert golf the bunkers are dirt and should be played as ground under repair. I'll wait a month and let the greens heal before I go back.
