Greens are slow
Course overall is in pretty good condition. Greens are quite slow though. Took a while to realize how slow they were. Still a good deal though.

Good pace until 16
Pace was great until we hit 16, then needed to wait a few groups to finish off. Was windy at the start but manageable until we hit 15 and it picked up. Last holes were difficult to play in.

Slow play
Pace was good until we hit 12. Apparently, there was a foursome of men that were more interested in partying than playing golf. They had about 8 groups backed up. On 16, there were 5 groups waiting to play. first nine was good though.

Need a marshal
First nine very slow. There was a very slow 4some holding up 4 groups. After 9, decided to do the front 9 twice instead of waiting forever for this group. Course is in pretty good shape, they've done a lot of work by the ponds, clearing away the long grass, etc. Greens are in good shape.
