Normally I do not look forward to the overseeding process, which is performed every year near this time, but I am anxious now because the fairways on the South course are in such terrible condition, they really need something to be done. So, I am hopeful that when the course reopens in three weeks or so, it will more closely resemble the course I've been accustomed to play.

While the majority of the greens are fine, there are a couple which need attention - now! The aeration should also resolve that issue. Overwise the course is in decent condition.

I will echo Weber's review. Fairways are really bad. They were punched with small diameter holes but no sand was used for some reason as they are trying to let the old bermuda re-establish itself. I'd... Continue »

I will echo Weber's review. Fairways are really bad. They were punched with small diameter holes but no sand was used for some reason as they are trying to let the old bermuda re-establish itself. I'd estimate 60% of the grass in the hitting area (180-280 off the tee) has failed to grow back. Meanwhile the rough is starting to get thick which I'm sure most members won't like but it's needed for course to defend itself. Greens are healthy although a few are starting to see brown spots. Tees are just ok, sand is very good. Will likely experience these conditions for another month unless 50 truckloads of sod are brought in. (note: it took the North course 5 weeks longer than expected to return to very good conditions after aeration).

Not being allowed to tee off until 7am when the forecasted temperatures will be in the mid 90's , so needless to say it was hot! The greens on the course are very good, although a little slower than I... Continue »

Not being allowed to tee off until 7am when the forecasted temperatures will be in the mid 90's , so needless to say it was hot! The greens on the course are very good, although a little slower than I would prefer. Rough, tee boxes, and bunkers are also in fine shape. However, the fairways are as bad as I seen in my 32 years as a member here. They are just awful. Don't tell me this is what we should expect after being closed for over two weeks recently for aerification of the fairways. Of course, now we'll be told that the overseeding which begins later this month will resolve the problem. I'm sure that work for a while, but it always seems to be some excuse for the poor conditions.

I could rant more, but the bottom line is they need to find somebody who can return the course conditions to what I enjoyed for the first 29 years I played here.

First out as usual to beat the heat forecast for today. Not too busy for a Friday. Since they will be shutting down the South for two weeks for aeration, it was my last opportunity to play here for a while. Fairways have been awful, so I won't really miss playing here as much as normal, plus the homeowners on holes #2 & #3 have complained about noise, so maintenance can not begin mowing until after 7am. Because of this, I catch the mowers not only on these two holes, but all the way through the course now because their delayed. If you buy a house on the course, you should expect some degree of noise, otherwise don't buy on the course! Greens are very good and super receptive. Most of the fairway is acceptable, but too many bare areas. Bunkers, tee boxes, rough are all in good shape. I am seeing some signs of improvement in the fairways, but at this moment in time, still not what you would expect or what I have known to experience in my 32 years here. Overseeding in September will close the course again for three weeks, but perhaps that might resolve the issue.

With only one course open, needless to say it was very crowded this morning. With the restriction that play cannot begin until 7:00am, makes for a very competitive situation to get out early. Lucky to... Continue »

With only one course open, needless to say it was very crowded this morning. With the restriction that play cannot begin until 7:00am, makes for a very competitive situation to get out early. Lucky to be first out so no pace of play issues for for me today.

Greens rolled well and had decent speed. Fairways are really showing the stress of the weather and all the addition traffic. Bunkers and tee boxes are excellent. Conditions are less than optimal, but perhaps after the aeration next month, things will improve ?

Played 36 holes on 7/6/22 from the Golds. Scored 86 and 83. Putting surface wasn't too bad. Fast enough yet very fair. Played the course at 4:30 hrs. Bunkers had awesome sand yet it wasn't too fl... Continue »

Out early as usual on a mild overcast morning. Fairly busy, so pleased to get off before the bulk of the players. Typical dealings with maintenance mowing greens, raking bunkers, changing pins, etc. but that's the price of going off first. (Well worth it most days)

Course is in nice condition, greens do not have the speed they normally had, but rolled well and are receptive. Bunkers and tee boxes are excellent. Fairways continue to be good. As we approach the time of the year when one course is closed for extended periods at a time, it will be interesting to see how well the course conditions hold up with all the play focused on just one course?

First out on a warm morning. Course was super busy today. (Maybe to beat the heat?) Greens still have not completely healed from the aeration. Still a bit bumpy, and slower than usual. Fairways are ex... Continue »

First out on a warm morning. Course was super busy today. (Maybe to beat the heat?) Greens still have not completely healed from the aeration. Still a bit bumpy, and slower than usual. Fairways are excellent, Tee boxes and bunkers also in great condition. Rough is just OK.

With the upcoming Windmill Classic Tourament, I suspect they will get the greens in shape and bring back the speed. We'll see

Out early on a cool morning. Course remains in very nice condition. Greens have recovered well from the recent aeration, just not as quick as usual. Fairways have good coverage - nice & green and lush. Tee boxes equally nice. Bunkers as always excellent.

If they can get the speed up on greens, the course would be playing perfectly for me right now.
