Got away from my club and played Cypresswood (Tradition course) this morning with some buddies. Course was in fantastic shape.

However, it was a 5 hr round and we even teed off early. Marshals were driving around plenty and aware of the problem but didn’t actually help. He even said that 4:30 is what they aim for pace of play.

The waiting was miserable and these guys vowed to never book there again.

Welcome to public golf on weekends. Only reason I joined a course.

That’s ridiculous. Played High Meadow Ranch today, and we finished in under 4 hours with a group of 3. Super enjoyable with only a little waiting between shots.

Course is in pretty good shape other than a couple holes. Couple tee boxes under repair and one hole was pretty wet due to a sprinkler leak somewhere I'm assuming. Greens are a little slow, but they were rolling really nicely, so can’t complain too much. I really like playing that course early in the morning. Deer everywhere running around the course, and a little bit of elevation change makes for a nice round.

Our exact experience and they don't seem to care, way too crowded. We vowed to never go back after a 5+ hour round.
