HDCC short but sweet
Used to be a memeber there for 12 years, not in as good a shape as the private days, but definetly better than is was the last couple of years. Slow play continues to be a problem. Easy course to walk.

Course with potential but requires some work and simple improvement
Interesting course with lot of potential . Very short course but it took close to 4.5 hours to play therefore I recommend a course supervisor to be more active on the course to increase the speed of play.
Overall the course condition were OK. I would recommend that they did some more work on the green to speed them up (roll and trim). They were very slow, bumpy and inconsistent. Also the fairway needs some trimming. Hardly no roll at all.
If you embrace the name of country club. Act and be like one or remove the country part out.
