Slow!!!!

We had a 12:50 tee time the group 2 times before us showed up 10 minutes late and were incredibly slow. Multiple requests to have them keep pace were not successful. Ruined an otherwise nice course experience.

Course Great…but…

The course is great but the greens had been plugged very recently. I know this has to happen this time of year but I think courses should reduce the green fees for a week or so after the plugging….it just seems fair since the putts bounce all over the place.
