Carter Plantation Conditions

That is miserable and an absolute round killer for me

Playing this afternoon. Will make sure I bring plenty of snacks and drinks. Thanks for the warning.

Yep, played before the flip of the course, 5.5 hrs. Played after the flip, 5 hrs. We actually teed off on 10 thinking it was 1. No one in the pro shop told us any different.

The plus of the flipped nines was that I was able to stop and have a burger at the bar, sit inside and eat, and still not fall behind the group in front of us.

But I hit long iron into the first 3 greens. The range was closed, so not exactly how I'd like to start the day. The original routing eases you in much better. 9 is also a terrible finishing hole.

It’s just not worth it. Flipping the nines didn’t do much to time. It was already slow. They don’t spread tee times out enough

I don’t know what it is. It’s unbearable at times. I live fairly close to Carter and it’s probably the course I play most often. If the weather is anything resembling decent you can forget about it. They stack up the tee times and the marshalls don’t do a damn thing about slow play. The swapped nines didn’t do anything.

I really don’t like making the turn at the clubhouse. 17-18 are SOB of a holes and it was a lot better having that be your turn than trying to close on those two holes.

Yeah they obviously don’t give a shite about pace. They flipped the nines to try to make more money from people at the turn. I won’t go back unless people on here say things have changed. Can’t stand paying 70 bucks to be miserable

That’s next on the list for me to try. It’s pretty close by my house. Never heard of it until I saw it on this board last couple months.

I love the layout at Cam2 but the greens are soooo small on the front 9.

They’re charging $70? Seems a little steep.

When did the pace of play become so unbearable? Wasn’t like that 5-6 years ago.
