Sloooooooooooow play

Felt like 10 minutes between each shot. It’s a demanding course and some people should not be playing it. Like you should be this tall to ride this ride. Some aren’t tall enough!! Then they have to play from the back tees which I couldn’t understand at all. Every hole one of them would lose a ball and had to look for their ball that went out of bounds like it was the last ball on earth! Sand traps need some work and tees are used a lot and tough to find a good spot on some of the tees. Staff are great and it’s worth golfing there if you can get an early time to get ahead of the slow play.

Unacceptably long wait between holes

Course conditions and the deal I got are the positives from this trip. That said having to wait 20 minutes at each tee box is unacceptable. Either the stagger needs to be longer in between with less tee times or a Marshall is needed. The two groups in front of us had 4 people each and never let my twosome play through. On top of that they played together as 8 on the last four holes. We quit after #16 because we were five hours in at that point. Unacceptable

Disappointed

I’ve played the Palmer course multiple times and this was by far the worst. First the young man who checked us in was rude and charge one of my party full rate instead of the discount. The course was in rough shape. No The bunkers looked like they hadn’t been raked in over a week and the greens were chewed up. Finally there was no refreshment stand nor cart girl working at 3pm so if you didn’t get drinks before you started you now had limited options. I expect more out of a “premium” course.
