Hard Labor
Good layout course needs to control cart traffic as what little grass there is is very thin so like playing bare lies greens need blown snd rolled to be more consistent it is dormant and damage can still be done
Would love to see the state put some bad needed money into the course because it really is a good and fun layout a lot of the real back tees are not being used and a lot of them are in very good shape

Read how great the greens were and fast . Found this to not be true. No speed and we’re inconsistent. Little bumpy as they needed blown off and rolled. Fun layout
and all should give it a play . Nice tree lined with elevation change . I am sure I just caught the course on a off day
