Overbooked

We booked to play at 9 o'clock and when we arrived we were told that tee time will be moved 9:15 as they had to squeeze some other players in due to an error at the pro shop. There was no apology for this change in start time

This did not present us with a problem but the speed of play was slow and we had to wait on numerous occasions for the groups in front.

On the 11th hole we were greeted by the starter Phil who told us that we were playing too slowly and that unless we speeded up he might have to get us to miss a hole. We informed him that we have been waiting for the group in front who were playing slowly but he was not polite at all and quite offensive in his tone.

He then came back afterwards to say that he found the problem with the group in front and told them to move faster. This took two holes and left us with a very unpleasant feeling about our visit to this golf course.

We have played the course over 20 times before and have never experienced this sort of officialdom.

It definitely spoilt our golf round.

Palmetto bushes

Too much distance between holes, palmetto brush close to playing areas, lost balls 4 yards off fairway leaves you frustrated. Good condition, friendly staff, get rid of the brush and let people make recovery shots

University park play

Golf course immaculate as usual . 3rd or 4th time signed up to play as a foursome but went out as a two some on a course that was fairly full . Makes for a long day and the starter I found made no effort to find us a better situation. Special thx to Marshall Daryll who helped navigate us around the course in a timely fashion . He definitely saved the day and should be commended .
