Not complaining

I don’t want to complain because the starter said that’s all people do. So when my tee time came up I asked him if I was supposed to go with the twosome on the tee. I did, at short notice. First hole doglegs left. Second to the right, third to the right, and the fourth to the left. I was ill prepared and out of sorts.

Greens were great. Lots of subtle and not so subtle breaks. Course was short from the whites. But still a lot of fun. Enjoyed the secluded holes on the back nine. Not so much the exposed holes on the rest of the course. Did not feel “at home.” Was worth playing….

Great group of guys

I was paired up with three other guys, who all just met up on the first tee. We had no idea we were in for a for a great day. Paul, John & Matt (no not Ringo) and myself teed from the whites.

The first hole is a blind shot with a little draw. Next time I am going to aim left of the tree and land the green, risk reward first hole! who doesn't like that?

Greens were running a little slower than expected. I left a few short ones out there, and I was not alone...

I asked the starter for a pointer or two, he said...Keep your head down! Take heed to this! as holes are close together.

I would definitely recommend this track and will be back for sure!!!

Shoulder Shrug

I showed up for my tee time that I booked through GolfNow and paid. Pro shop worker told me to go see starter. Starter said hes gonna try to get me off but its busy. My 1130am tee time i guess was full. I watched 1138 tee off with no word from starter. Tournament was starting at noon so starter just shrugged his shoulders and said sorry. Why have tee time available if you arent going to honor it. They treated me like i just walked up and wanted to play. Asked me if i called ahead at least 3 times. Why would i call if i booked a tee time that you had available. Very disappointed in the treatment. Went to get refund and pro shop worker didnt flinch and just said its tough cuz its busy. Then dont offer the tee time.
