The course is in bad shape, who ever takes care of it needs to go back to school, or to school to start with, on growing and taking care of turf. Dont think anybody here knows how to take care of a golf course. Alot of wealthy people play here,that dont care about the middle class person. They treat you like your a second class person. To bad they look at the world that way, I thought that way of thinking was long gone, guess not. Not worth stopping here to play golf, alot of other courses around the area to play with friendly people to greet you.
