Slowest Greens EVER!

A Tournament/Outing was in the morning, so afternoon was booked solid! Perfectly acceptable but a Five-Some was let out walking and didn't let people play through! Not a ranger in site!

Five-hour round through 13 when we quit playing!

Slow

Pace was way to slow. Almost 3 hours to play the front. Walked off after hole.14, had enough. Other than that the course and price were good.

I was greeted by the starter saying that I’d have to cart up with someone I did not know. There were plenty of carts available; this was a scam to squeeze an extra $10 for my own cart. The pro shop employees were pleasant., but the starter left a bad taste in my mouth. Started as a twosome, but the pace was so bad we teamed up with a twosome ahead of us. After four holes we were 25 minutes behind, and it never got any better. We waited on every hole! 5-1/2 hours later we finished. One of the most inept performances of the Marshalls, starter and course management. Absolutely sucked!!
