Best municipal course in BR

This is my childhood home course that I have not played in over 10 years. I do practice here 4-5 days a week since it is on my way to work in the mornings and the staff here is awesome. I took a client out for a round since Pelican Point had a tournament that day and we both really enjoyed the round. Overall condition of the course was surprisingly very good considering how much play it gets. Open 7 days a week to the public puts a toll on a course like this. I will definitely start playing here more.

Santa Maria in great shape

Everything was great except pace of play. We were a threesome. There was a threesome in front of us and a five some in front of them that slowed everything down. Even the marshall admitted to not telling the fivesome to pick up the pace because the group was arguing about a lost ball when he went to talk to them. Greens are fast right now too, which I like.

Good Recovery

Course suffered major storm damage and flooding. It's back to about 95%. The layout is great and the staff second to none. Range, chipping green and putting greens are a major plus. Fairways could be groomed a bit better but overall a fun course.

Great conditions even after this IDA crap- glad to see the work they put in to get their course back up and running. Also awesome to see a cart girl out today. Greens were a little long/slow but still great shape.

Be back with the homies soon!
