A snails pace

We have played this course many times. Most times it moves at an OK pace however, this past weekend was so unbearable that we had to stop playing after 15 holes the pace of play was extremely slow. They had way too many golfers on the course.

Favorite course

The course was in great shape from tee to green. Staff is always friendly. Due to earlier rain we had clear sailing ahead of us with no waiting during our entire round. We will be back again and again.

Seriously Flawed Great Course

Pierce has a serious problem with Pace of Play.

Throughout this Summer I've had super long rounds because Rangers on this course could care less about a consistent Pace of Play so the entirety of Players can enjoy... A 6 person Group was slowing course up and 2-3 groups were stacking up... Called clubhouse & Ranger didn't break up group just asked them to pickup pace.

Such a shame for a Gem of a course
