What are the rates from highest to lowest that you pay with the Copper Card?

Their website says "UNLIMITED ROUNDS AT PREFERRED CARDHOLDER RATES (FROM $20-$54)", but I think it's just $20 off whatever the advertised rate is.

If you play even just once every few months, I think it's a good deal.

Beaver’s fairways and rough are in top notch shape right now. Their greens have recovered well, but were a little long and grainy so speed control was a challenge. They were very receptive though.

Santa Maria doesnt move the holes on either "putting green" as often as they should. Depending on which direction the grain of the grass is growing some of the cups are in terrible shape and not well defined anymore. There are so many weeds on the practice greens right now, its like playing plinko. I never understood why they allow people to chip at the putting green by #1 teebox when the short game area isnt far away. I'm guessing laziness on the staff and golfers. Half of the time there are no balls on the short game area, the bunker is never maintained and the "grass" is so terrible.

Played Fennwood this morning.. Couple of the greens had some problem spots on it but nothing terrible and they rolled pretty nice. For 40ish bucks on the weekend to play 18 it’s not a bad little course.

Uclub is in decent shape after their member-guest. They are doing some tee box rebuilds so there are some temp tee boxes

Copper is looking better. Most greens have bounced back from the crab grass invasion.

It’s a terrific little neighborhood course. I wish I had something like that nearby.

How is Carter lately? I’m gonna head out there this weekend.

Nice! Make sure you ask Cody to sign you up for the daily news or whatever emails. That's how you find out when the course has something special going on, like a tournament or a fitting day. It wasn't automatic for me, but maybe they've gotten better about it.

Based on the people I've seen playing the island recently, this is not surprising that some jackass did this. Lot of bros there recently.

Not that I’m aware of. But I hope so and I hope Burky bans the a-hole from ever playing there again.

Hell I’ve played this game for a a longtime and have gotten aggravated from time to time. But I’ve never once done something that’s damn stupid.. I mainly cuss at myself for sucking at golf..

Assuming you're referring to G?

Good, absolutely zero place for that on the golf course...

Also can confirm The Island is in solid shape! I walked the front 9 this evening - kinda has Open conditions feel to it. Fairways and rough are firm. Greens were in good shape. Course will def enjoy the rain this weekend if it comes. Club Championship starts tomorrow so hopefully they can get that in.
