08/10/09, AT&T Volunteer Play Day stupid shotgun start with double tees, retirees, and generally old, feeble players made for a really slow day. I have played this course in 3 hours, but today it was 5 1/2 hours of hit and wait. Also compounded by the fact that for the volunteers, it is cart path only. They wouldn't do that to the members or guests. Just goes to show you: you may be able to play here, but you don't belong. Nice treatment of people who donated 4 days of their time last March. LOL. This is an immaculate course. Today I saw several bunkers with wet sand, and a couple of tee boxes that got divotized. Not bad, considering it was retiree hacker day today. If you get a chance to play here, do it.

I have been fortunate to have played here a couple of times recently as a guest and this course is in its usual fantastic condition. Pace of play is great--probably about 3 1/2 hours. I was told the g... Continue »

I have been fortunate to have played here a couple of times recently as a guest and this course is in its usual fantastic condition. Pace of play is great--probably about 3 1/2 hours. I was told the greens were aerated last month, but you cannot tell. Soft, but lightning fast; however, a little bumpy at times. Fairways are always great here: lush with nice mower stripes for that pristine look. They were aerated recently, and all the plugs removed from the course. Sand quality is as good as it gets, but some traps needed a fluffer, er I mean, a good turn with the sand pro. They looked good, but some were a little crusty on top. Not bad, though. Tees also were in pristine shape. If you get a chance to play here, don't pass it up. I know a couple of the grounds crew (that's how I got on) and they just rock. Great job, VCC crew!
