Teed off early this morning. Course was in great shape. Only two complaints: The place was soaked and there is a ton of ball mark damage on the greens. Found myself fixing two or three a hole. Next time I’ll tee off later to avoid the wet conditions.

Played Sandpiper for the first time. Great layout. Lots of ocean views on the back nine. Number 11 is an awesome par 3 straight down a hill with an ocean backdrop. The greens were really sticky and rolled pretty good. My only complaint was the customer service. The guy in the shop told me I couldn’t handle the back tees without even asking me what kind of player I was. I played from the tips and fired a 75. They also sent me off as a single and then told me I was not allowed to play through the foursome in front of me. Weird. Really enjoyed the course despite the staff. Will be back.

Knollwood is in great shape! Glad I was able to play it before they punch the greens. Staff was very polite.
