The Meadows

There were four of us. Two are seasoned players, one not so much and the fourth player is new to golf this season. The foursome behind us kept driving into us. We finally picked up our balls on the green, didn’t finish putting and moved on the the next hole. We saw the Ranger when we started and never again through nine holes!! 🤯

Some high school team was in front of us. Coach had them practice different shots. kinda slowed us down at times. The coach should know better.

OK it is her kind of a rainy Thursday, October 19, 2023 and I have not played the Meadows in a couple years so now that I have joined golfpass I had a big discount so the net cost of me playing here was only 13 bucks can you believe it so anyway I’m out here by myself kind of rainy conditions I must say the fairways and greens are the best shape. I’ve played all year of any course they have not been aerated yet, so they rolled through. I love the flag sticks very much, the same as Pilgrims Run solid, flag sticks because of the wind that they get here. I’m surprised they don’t have a cover over the back of the golf clubs for the rain. That’s surprising on these Japanese built probably Yamaha golf carts but other than that there’s not a whole lot to complain about lots of young college students. Here what you would figure yeah it’s busy even on a Thursday so in the rain .

This college is unbelievable how fast it’s grown in the 30 years I’ve been here but I’ve heard rumors that the scores might go bye-bye but I don’t know about that don’t hold me to that. Yeah it’s definitely a top 25 college course and I got about a conditioning is great. If you know the layout you can score well here go off the right tees I’m playing the whites which is just under 6000 which is perfect and I’m glad I did not bring the wife here because it’s a it’s a toughy Him my buddies don’t like it they’re not big links people but it doesn’t bother me so much on my plate. Those links a Bowen Lake a lot this year, but this is my first time here in two years and when you can score a deal like that on Golf now you better take it .

This was by far the nicest starter I’ve ever had David kudos to David whoever sees this friendliest starter I have ever had at the metal Meadows

Wife and I took advantage of bad weather and empty course to putz around The Meadows on a Friday in the fall. No leaves which is always a plus in the fall. 1st time wife played this course and she thought it was beautiful and fun from the red tees. She is more used to short courses but appreciated the length and had fun on the greens. This place is always great and love the layout so much for someone who sprays the driver it's not as tight as it looks. Always will remain a must play every year.

After the 4 days of rain, I thought the course might have puddles here and there. Nope. Great drainage. Didn't land in a bunker, but they looked a little moist. Greens ran true as always. I had my normal 6 lipouts from 20+ feet. Proshop is efficient, not overpriced much and friendly. Janey in the bar was nice and didnt seem tired even though she slept on the couch. 😳

This course is always in great condition and a real pleasure to play. The layout is challenging but very fair.
