my question is could some of these green problems be avoided?

I have been here for 10+ years and course conditions (I speak for Championship) have been inconsistent at best, but for the last year they have been the worst I have seen. Excuses abound for their conditioning but admission of a problem from the Golf Division does not happen. I believe the GMS is totally revenue driven and chooses to put "reasonable" course conditioning on the back burner until it hurts their pocketbook. Unfortunately "reasonable" conditions can have a wide spectrum of interpretation from golfer to golfer, resulting in a wide variety of Resident opinions on this issue.
