Have an opportunity to play there later this month. It’s been like 10 years since I’ve played. How is is looking? I’m excited and hope it’s nice weather that morning

Thanks fellas

Played Saturday mid morning. Course is in good condition. Tee boxes were decent, bunkers in good shape, fairways good (sadly not green and lush, yes the winter), greens were super fast and hard (rain should help this week and soften them), greens played more straight than breaking true.

I’d call it a close to top tier semi private country club.

Would play again, would love to play in summer!

Greens are firm and fast. Rolling really smooth. Fairways are just in their winter pattern. Tee boxes are really the only thing in rough shape out there right now. Had a good time out there this weekend.

Played today. Greens are in amazing shape. Lightning quick. Tee boxes, meh. Fairways good. Most of the traps are very beachy and I just hate that lol.

Overall, very happy with the conditions today.

Have they redone the greens? Been about 2 years since I’ve been out there

I haven’t played it since they redid the greens but I heard the course is in good shape again from people who played recently.

Hope it’s true, cause it’s a great course when it’s maintained.

Yes, the redid the greens. It was MUCH needed and as stated above, they are in phenomenal shape.

They have a relatively new grass on their greens called Mach1. Super fine texture that supposedly has little to no grain. As a Golf Course Supt., I will be planting a test green at my course this summer.

Was in great shape, we had a super time. It’s not an easy course
Oh and met Sean Payton in the parking lot after the round. Bonus

Found the greens to be true, definitely not as fast as I thought they’d be but then it was early and foggy/damp
