Challenging

I do love this course and it was in great shape today. The greens were a little fast but not terrible. It’s just a challenging course and it’s a great way to start off the season.

Great course but a few things would have made it better

For being the first week of April the course was in great shape except for a few areas with a lot of water. The one downside if I had to be picky was the clubhouse snacks and drinks. During a round of 18 having more snack other than chips would have been nice. We were told the food was just not being served at the time which seemed odd for how busy the course was.

Walked

Greens were awesome ...

Walked in under four hours - was fairly windy but leaves weren't an issue as the ground crew has done a phenomenal job cleaning them up. Greens were fantastic - hard, fast and true.

Pace of play was very good as the course was busy with so many taking advantage of the warm weather.
