Course in good shape

The course is in good shape. But at this time of the year, that’s what you would expect. Only complaint is the bunkers. Somehad nice white fluffy sand. Others were nothing but dirt.

Pinsetters first day

Played here dozens of times. It was clear that the pinsetter was having a rough day. Half the cups were only 1/4” below the surface, tilted, and numerous non-conforming locations on the sides of ridges or too close to the green edge. Particularly hole 7 was set in a spot where it was impossible to have the ball stop within 5’ of the hole.
