too, too slow

Too bad the pace of play didn’t match the speed of the greens. I love this course but it’s difficult to wait on every shot.

good beginner and practice

Just because it is a muni course, doesn't mean you can respect it a little.

To the group in front of me

FIX your divots, don't throw the flag and pick up after you reach triple bogey

Love this Course. I can get through in about 2 and half hours as a single when it's not busy and a great place to have some fun and relax.

Almost like my home Course (if I played a lot).

HAZARDOUS SAND TRAP RAKES

At first I just thought it was all the golfers who are used to playing golf on the simulators that never raked the sand traps after they hit out of them, until I realized that was not the issue the issue is the old Sun rotted fiberglass rakes as soon as you grab one with your hand you get a handful of fiberglass splinters I will never rake the sand traps again either until they get safe equipment
