Not in the near future last i was told

it flooded Friday night and greens irrigation ran Friday night. You played in worst case scenario conditions. roughs were sprayed recently for weeds so the roughs haven't been mowed in a week or so to allow the herbicide to work. you're saying you aren't bashing the island but you are. If you only knew what went on behind the curtain, you'd change your tone. those greens were double punched with very large tines so normally 4 weeks is fine but it will prob be another week or 2. everyone else says the place is good because it is good. They're not BRCC OR CCL or Beaver creek flush with money and help. If you only knew what is being used to create the islands product, you'd be clapping in appreciation for the Maint. crew's efforts..

Glad y'all had a good time. We do our best to provide a good product with what we have which is much less than most courses have around BR. We have a great group of guys in maintenance.

they dont bite. worked there for 7 years. i provoked them and never got bit

One thing the island has over every other course is it will be off the path faster than every other course. it drains so well and dries up so much faster. 12 and 14 at coppermill will be a swamp for days

i was the superintendent when it closed. your statement is true but untrue as well. that wasnt the reason for the shutdown but its the reason it wasnt reopened by the current owner

Because LSU TAF backs UClub. Thats where the Team plays.

It's obvious you haven't played the Island in a while. the Island had a major irrigation failure late summer and lost most of the greens. They made huge improvements since most greens died but ran out of time when winter hit to continue growing them back in and then the worst winter in yrs hit with snow. No one in America can grow grass in that situation. Before bashing a course, how about ask some questions. Comparing the Island to Webb is a joke. it's not even close if you take the entire course into consideration. If you want to complain about price, that's fine but don't bash a place not knowing what's behind the curtain. I can promise those guys are doing everything possible within their control to make the course nice for everyone.

Callaway Golf Preowned is definitely a awesome option

I know of a hand full of revenge tournaments that's happened over the last month or two. What did you like and not like about all the setups those courses did and which course was your favorite? No need to bring up the 7.5 hour round Uclub took to play.

The Island has come a long way since July when the greens died from irrigation failure
