Short course

Great short course to play. Pace of play can get slow, but the fairways and greens are worth it. Bunkers were nice as well.

This course is horrendous now

The pace of play is absolutely terrible due to the fact they over pack the tee sheet. The last 3 time we have played here we have finished in 5 hours waiting 20 min per shot to hit. Avoid at all costs unless you are the first tee time

Herndon Centennial GC

Herndon was in GREAT condition. Greens were fair and rolling true. Rough was higher than normal, but not unfair. Pace of play was extremely slow. Marshall should recommend the correct set of tees when watching players use the blue tees and could barely hit the ball straight. Out of bounds, and long approach shots for unskilled players makes for long waits on the tee box and the fairways.

Pace

So slow, and we even called the martial. Still the same. I started at 2:06, and ended up leaving after 16 holes which was at 6:30

Rough too thick

Several great drives just off the fairway and lost the balls in the extremely long rough - unless you were right on top of your ball it was gone. And when i was lucky enough to find it, the thickness of the grass drastically altered the power of the shot. Definitely needs to be shorter.
