I play this course weekly and always find it in wonderful condition, and the staff always treat you superbly. I noted one reviewer cited the greens don't hold when hitting an approach shot; they are not meant to - the course is a links course. The traps are not quite as they are in Scotland or Ireland, however, they do contain local sand. The greens appear as if they will be changing over the coming time; currently they appear to have a grass I haven't seen anywhere else, but on Monarch, but now Poa is making inroads, and likely it will eventually will dominate what is here already. The course is difficult but fair. Long hitters will not likely be able to use their drivers much: the course does not seem to be designed to their advant- age to do so. Advice to all who play - try to stay out of the moguls - they can kill your game!!! Remember you can run the ball from off the green instead of hitting onto it and trying to hold it on the green. Enjoy. A comment on putting: the greens can be hazardous to your game!

Course takes controlled shots. Long hitters I have played with, rather avoid drivers for control/placement, than risk distance. Most greens receive short shots running onto them, rather than dropping onto greens, due to hardness of greens. Also playing greens several times helps to learn their undulations, because though they are fast and putt very true, they are very large. Also the twelve hole Par 3 Challenge course is excellent. I have played it often myself (16 handicapper) and find the scratch players love to practice their short game there.
