I’ve always liked the Ridge! It’s a great and challenging course. The greens were not in their usual pristine shape though, it is summer in the middle of a drought.

Bumpy POA greens

If you’re going to keep the greens 50-80% POA you have to actually water the POA to keep the greens from bouncing and chattering on putts inside 5 feet, get a superintendent who actually can play the game and understand how greens are supposed to roll, excessive dallisgrass in the collars and around the greens, it will be awhile before I return

Make sure you are 20 minutes early

I have played the ridge at least 25 times the last few years and never had a bad experience till today. My partner and I showed up at 1230 and decided to have lunch and get a drink in the bar since it seemed somewhat empty and we always get great service. Our tee time was at 1:20. Our gear was parked next to the pro shop and we didn't plan on warming up since it was already a hot day. We checked into proshop since our round was pre paid at 115 and were told we were late and could not go off until 1:40 though the tee box was empty. At 130 the next group finally came up as we sat there and waited 10 minutes were finally told we can jump ahead of these guys. I get they are trying to keep a schedule, and were "already behind" but checking in and ready to hit 5 minutes before our scheduled round seemed a bit much as your stance for the day. I will continue to go back, but hoping the older gentleman in the proshop lightens up a bit. I am more than happy to check in earlier next time and forgoe the $75 I spent in the bar and bring my own drinks on the course if that helps pace of play.
