Course is Rapidly Drying Iut

I recently played BC. It is one of my favorite regular playing courses. I found the course conditions to be very hard and dry turf conditions in what is clearly a drought situation. The greens are fine but the rest of the golf course is very dry due to the lack of rain. Under such dry conditions I found it difficult to chip and pitch around the often hilly and mounded greens that were often bare of any grass due to the drought conditions. The ponds on the course were very low with water and some had dried out completely or nearly so. The course this winter was in good condition with nicely seeded fairways and other areas. But right now the over seed is gone and course conditions are less than ideal. Hopefully, it will rain soon because it is a fun layout with nice staff and normally a great value for the money.

Looking good

The fairways in greens are looking good. Except for number 10 wish they can't seem to get straightened out but understandably so after the damage it got previously. Fairways are cut nice and pretty lush despite the lack of rain. They keep improving the course, I'll keep coming back. Kind of glad to see the snowbirds gone making it more affordable and less crowded. Keep up the good work

Good value

Buffalo Creek has a good layout and has some challenging holes. The issue is pace of play as they over book the course and don't care that they do it. 5 hour rounds are not enjoyable. A ranger goes around, but does nothing to move the pace of play.

Carts being driven up to the greens and on par 3's. Safe to say it's your avg week end beer drinking crowd.
