LPGA International - Jones Course

Not much interaction from the staff but couse amenities were great and the course was in great condition

I assumed that since the course has the LPGA name attached to it, it would be an exceptional course. Rather, I found the course to be very average in conditions. I also question the use of hills and second cut grass. On even the simplest holes, if you didn't land directly on the fairway and instead went into the second cut, your ball would almost be impossible to find because of the type of grass they use, which althoug a few inches tall, swallows the ball so you can't see it unless you are directly on it. Several holes also have hills along the fairway that make getting around the course difficult should you find yourself near one of the hills.

This course is beautiful in every respect. From the T-Boxes to the Greens, everything is in fantastic Shape.

The greens are still bumpy from an aeration a few weeks ago. The traps are unplayable for the most part. It goes from under water to mud to hard dirt to packed sand to fluffy sand in the same trap. Fortunately today only 1 maintenance guy mowing the tee boxes followed us around on a half a dozen holes. I’m told they are told not stop just because golfers are there. Oh don’t let the construction going on bother you, just turn up the music so you can’t hear them. It such a shame. I love the layout and it used to be the best around.

The course is in playable condition except for the bunkers…they are not groomed and play more like waste bunker…yet they but the rakes out near the bunkers…not acceptable for the extremely dry weather conditions we are experiencing!

This was a great place to play. It was a challenging course for us to play. But it was a fun course. I will be back to play it again.
