Solid fun 18

I think what I like best is that for a beginner golfer it gives me a chance and still reminds me I have a way to go. Nice set up and will play again

Golf is for the Birds

Not exactly… but there was a bird at hole five that was protecting the ball wash and would dive bomb anyone who got close. Not much happening until hole 10, where a hawk snatched a snapped bird out of the sky and about 20 other small birds chased, attacked and ran off the hawk. The last par five had seen some stuff: large feather were strewn across the entire length of the fairway. Goose size feathers. Couldn’t imagine what transpired there. All in all, still recovering from Alfred Hitchcock type day; will play again.

SCS

Everything was fine, and pace of play was actually good for SCS. The issue was they stopped serving beer before our round ended. The cart girl said last call on hole 1 but no one ever said that meant we couldn't go into the bar at the term. Next time this needs to be clarified.

City owned

They are in the process of making the course seam nicer but the place has dry and needs to be watered and they put the cheapest sand in the traps and nobody is happy about the quality. I know white sand would cost more but the city owns this course and it’s constantly filled with people, so they will get it back! and it would bring the aesthetics of this small average course up 100% and I talked it no less than 75 people who agree with my assessment . I’m going to other courses now and for same money they have nicer courses

Good day for golf

The course was in good shape for the amount of rain we've had. Was disappointed cause the reservation said cart included, then we I got here cart were not allowed on the course. Should have been informed of that.

OVERBOOKED TIMES

Overbooked for time slot. Starter asked people to give up their cart today and share with others (strangers). If you are giving up your cart to ride with others then a credit should be given. Starter was irritated that so many people were coming at same time but that is something that needs to be taken up with pro shop, not taken out on the players.

I play this course quite often but it seems like they are overbooking their time slots more often which is making play very slow.
