late morning round here. check in and starter friendly as usual. small bucket of balls $6. course was in pretty good condition given the recent rains. no wet nor soggy spots. tee boxes even and in good condition. fairways had nice even coverage, only slight divot damage. rough was grown out, got lucky sometimes sitting up. greenside bunkers had a fair amount of nice white sand. greens were in very good shape. running an 11 per the starter but seemed to be much faster than that. i four putted twice eegh. have to be very careful with speed. some small unrepaired divots. POP was 4:40 or so, so that was somewhat disappointing, waiting on every tee box starting at 7 and with the usual long waits at the par 3's #8 and #16. nice day for golf, be nice if it moved just a bit faster.

not much to say here. played after the rains so everything was deeply muddy, essentially cart path only. check-in was friendly and easy. tee boxes were a bit ratty but mostly level. fairways were spotty and some were essentially trudging through mud. fringe areas were spotty, greens were soft receptive, and actually rolled pretty well. bunkers were mostly full of water. with the no driving on fairways and the group of geriatrics here hitting it 130 off the tee in front of us, the first 9 took 3 hours. i just left after that. i guess if you had the time to spend sure, but i don't. hadn't played in a month so just good to get out there and hit a few.

edit: i forgot it smells like cow manure here so just be prepared for that.

out with some buddies today in the morning. don't think i've been out here in 10+ years. driving range was pretty much dirt and can't hit drivers or really see how far your shots are going anyway. shop was pretty friendly. got off about 10 minutes after our tee time, already a few groups backed up on the first of north/south. really weird layout on this course, especially the south 9. a lot of elevation changes, narrow shots, and wondering 'where is this hole going?' especially the middle of the south 9, where they seem to have crammed 3 holes into a space where only one should really exist, so balls are flying from hackers everywhere landing on opposite fairways and all of it is pretty much dirt anyway. pluses, tee boxes were fairly level. greens were smooth. however several had large areas that needed repair with bare areas and fringes that seemed incomplete. fairways had mostly decent coverage, but also often had bare dirt areas. bunkers didn't have too much sand. round took five hours. pretty painful. really no need to come back here really.
