The greens were in wonderful shape their speed was splendid and the ball rolled true just one green was a little diseased just a part of it but really enjoyed my round.

I just love the greens on this golf course they're always fast and roll true. The fairways are always cut nice and even the rough is tended to. Yesterday's staff was great and really nice they had put me together with a group that one individual was a begginer and it took him 8 shots just to reach my one and I even suggested to him to tee it forward to the red tees which he refused so I quit after nine holes. I went back to the pro shop to turn in the handicapped flag and on my way I seen the individual that checked me in and told him what had happened and he said he was sorry and that he didn't know I told of not how could so he told to go inside and ask for Ben and he would give me a rain check on the other nine just great an awesome and decent person. This golf course is less than 10 mins from my home but I don't play it as much as I would like and I really want to join the men's club but they tend to be not minority friendly especially the older gentleman the younger men are cool. My group always get followed on every hole by the Marshall every time we come here. We are all Black men but we're all educated and have great jobs one works for the State Tax Franchise Board another U.S. Supervisor of Nursing in the mental ward at a major hospital another was just giving the State award of best Supervisor in the State he works for the State with a big staff responsible for hiring people for all the major jobs in Sacramento and myself I served in the U.S. Navy for 25 yrs as a SAR DIVER(search and rescue) also I'm a battle worn and battle injured with a Purple Heart among other ribbons and medals. We all shoot from the mid 80's to the high 70's so you could just imagine our feelings for being followed like we done something wrong. It is shame to say but we all drive either a Benz, a Volvo, a BMW and cars like that a year to two old but when the people see us putting our clubs away then the have the nerve o speak. But yesterday those young men restored faith and promise to me that the next generation want hold such prejudices.
