Pin placement

Firstly none of the greens were cut in the am. I think the pin placements were the same as the prior days. The hole cuts were grown over. Some pins were only 8-10’ from the back or front of the greens. Not very fair for this level of golfer.

Really enjoyed the course playing this week. Course is in good condition considering the drought we're in. Staff was nice and pace was quick. Will be back again soon.
