Played Beaver 2 weeks ago and it was in fantastic shape!

Santa Maria is good, could be great if it didn't hold so much damn water

Greyston has a nice layout, but it's only in fair shape. Greens are getting away from them. 11 actually has a temp green because it got so bad

Haven't played Carter or Island since 2020, need to play again

Played Greystone recently. Greens have improved a lot! 11 is still being worked on but there is definite improvement. Carter is in pretty darn good shape.

Carter is in terrific shape. After the hurricane they spent a lot of time and money (insurance?) on clearing trees and now re-sodding some problem areas. Lots of new home construction occurring too. I love it although I want to play Greystone for the 1st time to compare

Not going to lie. This is the best we have had it in a long time. I know all of these courses have been in better shape individually. But in total this is the best they have all been at the same time.

You are right! Especially with City Park and Webb being in great shape as well (for them). Now if LSU could just get with the program.

Just shut LSU down. It isn't needed and only hurts the economics for the rest of the courses.

Quite honestly they are all ??. Baton Rouge has absolutely mediocre golf and courses are closing all the time. Hell the best layout in the damm state (the bluffs ) isn’t even open. Iraq has better courses than Baton Rouge

LSU gives the students a place to play and the driving range is sometimes ok
