$46 (cart included), played on Thursday, October 2010 at 8am
We were a twosome and were told that twosomes could not tee off until 9:30 so as not to run into the maintenance people. A foursome went off a little before 9:00 and asked if we would like to go first. The starter would not allow that and made us PROMISE not to go through them once we started. He told us to play slowly because the group ahead was not fast. The foursome was slow and we soon caught up with them. By the time we got to the 13th hole, there were 5 groups on 12 and 13. We waited on every shot. Even though we had played this course previously, we will not make the trip again. The pro shop was in complete agreement with the policy. Obviously, the players do not take priority.
