Webb was playing great. Few weeks back their aerated and sanded.
I realize that is normal upkeep.
Now the greens play like absolute shute.
Of course it’s wet, etc. but I mean. Bald sandy spots all over

Greens are completely unnatural and need constant close care.
Weekly sanding
Rolling
Feeding
Disease control
Spoon feeding particular nutrients
Very few public courses can afford complete care. In fact, the majority of private courses can’t either.
Inundating rains can destroy months of good work.
Just the way it is.

Baton Rouge has awful weather for golf. People think otherwise but it isn't easy. Drought then flood then hurricane then rain every day then snow then freeze then heat wave. It is crazy. The greenskeepers here working with extremely tight budgets are pulling every lever imaginable and never know what is next. Imagine trying to plan when to put expensive chemicals out here? Forecast shows no rain. You put chemical out then it floods for a month washing it all away through the sandy soil.

The best golf courses in the world are in the desert!
Computer program has 26 recorded days of rain totaling 14 inches since August 1 on my course. It’s a quagmire out there!

What do you expect from Webb? Even though Brec has loads of money, I’ll never expect a nice course.
